about

This album tells a story.
Thanks for listening.

released July 18, 2012

Rick Lamb crafted this album on his HP laptop, using Cubase AI4, Audacity, and the Yamaha Audiogram3 audio interface to record and polish sounds which he created with a Seagull acoustic guitar, a Fender Squier Strat electric guitar with a VOX amplifier, a Yamaha Custom Z alto saxophone, a Roland Gaia SH-01 synthesizer, and various parts of his body.
The sole exception is the track "Germsalt", which he recorded and edited using materials in the Whitman College Music Technology lab for a class taught by Pete Crawford.
Art by Rick.

Earnest thanks to friends, family, teachers, and circumstances for the ability to produce this album.
