Spooky Cheddar

Listen to the Pyramid~

Further exploration into the digital realm: Cool beats 'n' treats & a subtle reminder to disengage from the World of Forms whenever possible. Namaste~

A stiff collage of bargain bin samples and b-side beats, carlessly strewn together with the utmost precision. Wiggity wump, bump bump bump.

A thorough exploration of the sensitive relationship between a young man and his computer. Be prepared to bop, sway, and get soaking wet.

Made during the winter of 2006-07 with a 4-track tape recorder & an analog synthesizer.

Sometimes you think you love someone, and they know they don’t love you back. That they never will is also something they know. They keep you around regardless, but they don’t tell you what they know. They let you kiss the air around them for weeks and months and years, but they don’t say a thing. You have to figure it out on your own, and then you have to stop thinking you love them. When I was 14, I was learning this. I had my devotion pinned firmly on such a knower. I didn’t figure it out though until a year or so after I recorded this album, across the endless winter of 2004. Snow Mercy is intended to be listened to on headphones. -Mowgle *All songs performed by Mowgle and mixed by Mowgle and Roo Gatsby December 2004- January 2005 Roo Gatsby-Additional vocals on #5 #6

recorded from 2003-2004, this is a selection of solo recordings from a CD-R called "Terms & Conditions/Perms & Conditioners"

this is a concept album about a summer teenage romance that i wrote & recorded as one 40-minute long track when i was 17 years old. although the lyrics were probably somehow cultivated from my experiences as a frustrated & arrogant hopeless romantic, the story that unfolds in this summer 'house' is complete fiction. i tried to structure the events around spacial relationships more than personal relationships, so the 13 or so "songs" on the track represent or occur in different areas of the house...the girl in the story, unfortunately, never existed, & I may have fabricated her to compensate for the fact that I spent the majority of the summer alone, recording & mixing one 40-minute long track into a messy little album...

MA CHI SEI recorded in 2003. drums, electric guitar, vocals.

recorded in 2001 to 4 track and computer, this is a selection of early recordings by Roo Gatsby.
