dilapidated houses
garbage on the ground

echoed the sirens

clarity during a swift beginning is a mirage yet unknown

Momma, you've got to see this man I've found

A short "Bumper" piece, "Slow Devils" is made from a HammerHead Rhythm Station drum part, a drone made from FreeSound.org sample 30188_ERH_cello_1_loop sequenced.wav, and a loop that Jacob Talkington (of JacobTalkington.com) let me play with.

First day back from the jungle in Central America, remixed this tune. Had to start off the new year in the U.S.A reminding myself that captivity will keep me returning to the jungle forever.
