a 60-track, 3 1/2 hour mind and mood altering journey from the city to the moons of saturn and back again...
[author's note: this is what they call the "cutting room floor" - beginnings of abandoned albums, absurd jams, covers of stuff we heard on the radio, mic checks caught on tape - it's all there. it's rather unlikely that you'll enjoy all of this album. but it is indeed probable that you'll enjoy some of it. so here it is; who are we to decide what's right for you?]
[technical note: uncompressed files are encoded in high resolution 24 bit/96 kHz. mp3's are shit and always have been. lossy compression offered a temporary fix for limitations imposed by the cost of disk space; here in 2017 your phone probably has way more memory than your computer did back when ipods and crap like that came out. we're past that shit now, ok?]
