boathouse
written and recorded primarily over two weeks in a boathouse off of lake Simcoe during the summer of '96. I played anything I could get my hands on (including and old Jacuzzi tub). It's my first real project and the master cassette tape is pretty sick. This project has made it as far as Japan, Israel, China, Denmark, Gemany and North America on pirating alone...It's all live mic with the effects done with the tascam.

The Fire on Little Lee Lee
a project I recorded with the intention of besting my own Boathouse album. 1999. I don't think anyone liked it but I think a lot of it is pretty good. Recorded with a four track on to a cassette. Mixed on to DAT.
