i’ve been on a mixing tear lately, starting back around independence day. that was followed up by a commission from marky d. for some work-time mixes. i spent my vacation in south carolina and then some time upon my return to the triumverate working on those. then, last night, osiris and i attacked a project for joe stanton’s birthday. it was a challenge, and our approaches to putting songs together are much different. i work on guts, and pretty quickly. osiris is really planned, very deliberate and slow. he’s had more experience than i have. i tacked the tracklists to the end of this. beginning, middle and end are all part of the larger marky d. project. tales from the ship: [ruptured rapture and] mutilated belly button was the joe stanton birthday joint project.
