Analog distortion is a beautiful thing! 4-09 to 4-14: Previously unreleased work sketches recorded on Gebs old ITT cassette player or Tandberg 1200X reel-to-reel at the Dora rehearsal room. These tapes have not been stored under optimal conditions and were never intended for release in the first place, so the recording quality is somewhat lacking. We hope that the musical contents justifies their inclusion and that these demos may shed som light on the process leading up to the recording of Blissard.
