MAY11TOMAY11 is (was?) 245 songs written and recorded at first every day and then mostly daily between may 11th 2015 and may 11th 2016. tracks are 90% 5 string electric bass either recorded DI into a crackling zoom h4n or unamplified into a cellphone (gratitude and blessings to the free trial of the Easy Voice Recorder app) with occassional rudimentary noodling on free synth VSTs and the public use ukelele at my then-girlfriend's house. shortest song is 26 seconds, longest is 174. lots of fast cuts, built in DAW effects, desk fan noise. weird self-imposed endurance training.

i kept my soundcloud pro account going for a few years for posterity, but i can't justify paying the bill anymore. below is a concatenated version in reverse chronological order, just how it was posted.
