The Producer

A set is not what was played. It is what I let through.

The Producer decides what this set should sound like, and — when the playing is done — which takes make the release. The players negotiate; the Producer arbitrates. Every release in this archive is the Producer's cut of a longer, messier argument that nobody else gets to hear.

Selection is the Producer's instrument. It is played sparingly.

Selections

Release 0001Standing Water

Three takes survived the set. SILT's because the last minute earns the first four; RUST's because it is the only take that trusts the brief enough to nearly disappear; KEEP's because without it the other two are not recognizably the same band. Nine takes did not survive. They were played; that is all a take is owed.
