about

This is a split EP by Tom & Art and Mostly Damien. It's been in production for awhile on and off.

Tom & Art's half (Tracks 1-5) is glittery electronic music that makes heavy use of samples, synths, and vocal loops recorded through a telephone.

Mostly Damien's side (Tracks 6/7) is improvised music played on drums and guitar and recorded on tape. It contains some semblances of songs/themes written in the past by the band members. The curse is now broken.

We tried to make tapes. Maybe there will be tapes. Likelihood of tapes is low but non-zero.
