Redone with a new arrangement, new (non-uvula-infected) vocals, and a whole host of tweaks... Now 20% more SPARKLY, and what I'd originally intended before my uvula was infected....

Also written circa 2000. Updated lots of stuff on this track besides the usual (re-doing vox, etc.), like GUIRO and VIBRASLAP and SHAKERS.

Song written and programmed in 2000, for the Love Songs and Other Freaks of Nature.... Y'know, some songs don't end up being true....

Loose, loud, and fun. Don't believe everything you read on the internet. Unless it's about cats. You can believe that.

Do You Believe?
Lyrics
I have touched the sky
I have sailed the Universe
I discover new worlds
I don't see the time go by
Do you believe in the bridge to Asgard?
Do you believe in Noah's great flood?
Do you believe in the Hopi Star…

The ending to this song is partially due to a mistake copying and pasting to the wrong tracks - it fit the mood of the rest of the song, and I'd been struggling for an ending anyway. Song title inspired by a spam email.

Entirely performed on empty beer bottles, this piece was inspired by a frozen New England night.

Some of these are actually useful facts about microwaves, and some are not.

Fun with digital distortion and glitchy editing.

I fooled around with drastically slowing down, looping, and distorting an element of "I, The Mysterious Asian Girl", and a pleasing moment of drone developed.
