ALL TRACKS FOR USE IN CHILL PROJECTS BY CHILL PEOPLE 

ABOUT THIS EP: 
Like most Twombly music endeavors, this EP was the result of throwing cutlery at a metal sheet for nearly 15 months in hopes of trapping some real moments in some figurative bottles. Finally, after many tears and as many doubts, the Chill Beats EP was spontaneously generated and captured on some very high end recording equipment by a few dedicated and bleary-eyed recording interns. 

As part of crafting the unique Twombly sound fans have come to expect, that initial recording was then played through a pretty big metal tube and the sound re-captured using some more high end recording equipment. The resulting recording was then transferred to an Edison cylinder and thrown into the ocean where it was left for three to five weeks before being retrieved by a remote controlled un-manned submarine. The cylinder was then carefully dried with a soft towel before being played over a haunted Phonograph (purchased on the internet) and the sound captured, this time, into a computer where the entire EP was accidentally and permanently deleted by the resident cat walking on the keyboard. The cat also knocked over and broke the cylinder too which was a real disappointment to everyone. After that, all hope was lost so the cat was recorded eating some treats. This is EP the result.

You Get a Line and I’ll Get a Pole

Based off an assignment for Allen Shawn's songwriting class at Bennington College and opened up to alumni...I am in between recording projects, so it was super fun not only set this poem to music, but to get to know the poem on my own terms.  -Rob Faucette, '96
