2. black feather (Featuring Kevin James Carey)

drums, bass drone, horns (Kevin James Carey), and baritone vox

4. revel (news)

@the_mitch - guitars, drums, bass, nasal congestion squelch ( thanks to D. Dumont aka Denis D.)

@hatchharnett - mix, constructive criticism ("Man Mitch this is l00se aF! And whats that background noise? Were you drunk when you recorded this?")

@rolling.peach  - probably heard a fair amount of quantization happening while she drew this

5. disconnect

I found this organ loop on an old HD and sang over it. This album was about me learning how to sing and properly record myself more than anything else. An icebreaker.

6. glory (hymn)

Didn't want to bog the always on the go @hatchharnett down with too many tracks, so this is just piano and my voice. I started teaching myself piano chords a few months ago and wrote 5 songs with the white keys, 5 with the black. This is one of my "white key" arrangements. I'll learn to mix it up over time :P My vox and recording technique will also hopefully improve :P Water is your friend!

7. better off?

I was going to have one instrumental track, but came up with this short one and decided to use it. My least fav album track

8. don't press (send)

a sad acoustic song

music: @the_mitch (guitar, bass, cold and flu symptoms)

mix: @hatchharnett

art: @rolling.peach  (nailed it!)

9. little doll

Saddest ending song I could think of at the time. Pretty bleak. Just one guitar track (doubled) and my voice.
