The idea for this one came to Margaret as she was walking to the studio for band practice one night, and we’re glad it did! Margaret, Robbie, and I (Kevin) recorded the main takes together live off the floor during our usual band practice timeslot…

I'll leave it to the listener to decide if it's more of a bonus to listen to this track or skip it. This is more of the didgeridoo/Otamatone/Stylophone session. ©2024 by Geekido Music (Chris Cooke). All rights reserved. Recorded for the 2024…

Another lovely Monroe/Robinson collaboration. This one was recorded piecemeal across the whole month of February 2024, with Robbie adding the guitar lead on 2/29 while I (Kevin) was doing the final(-ish) mixes! Leum Monroe – lyrics Robbie…

Everything was recorded live off the floor except the harmony vocal track, which was added a couple of weeks later. Margaret Bibb – lyrics, songwriting, vocals Robbie Robinson – guitar Kevin Craig – recording, bass, mixing These Old Boots…

Toward the end of the month, I (Kevin) got a wild hair to try something silly with Robbie’s sweet little acoustic ditty about the cycle of the seasons, which lets us end the album on a sweet and hopeful note. Hope you like it! Robbie Robinson…

Jus a little groove.

That satisfactory feeling after all the hard work is done.

Some memories of an easy sky and an easy day.

Sometimes ya gotta remember life is a verb.

Louder is better, more better, best-est.

The mischievous hungry tech pirates at it again.

VCV Rack patch reacting to an audio field recording. Cheers to Omri Cohen for the excellent patch walkthrough!

Built an Omri Cohen patch idea in VCV Rack, recorded a couple of takes, then edited and arranged the results in Reaper.

I've been waiting for you.
