Raking on Sunday: Leaves observe no one's Sabbath; Neither, then, shall I.

Recorded at an oceanography meeting in Salt Lake City this February (2012). The Ekman Spiral is a phenomena that describes the vertical change in ocean current from wind at the surface, which is in a spiral decreasing with depth. The spoken…

From RPM 2012 album, "The Kitchen Sink" First track - title comes from an unintended vocal sample. 2/26/12 MPT: I already uploaded a fresh copy. I wanted it to sound like a vocal ensemble in a dumpster, but I might have initially gone overkill…
