My friend Nate recently sent me a recording he made of my old band The Caldonias playing at Dekum Manor in November of 2008. It's pretty raw and rough around the edges but you can hear that everyone is having fun and it sums up what our shows were like most of the time. This is the only recording that exists of the band after Chris Sutton joined on second guitar, and I believe it was our last Portland show before we went on tour, fought, and broke up. We were only around for a year but it's my personal favorite of all the bands I've been in. Here's a link to download the whole set:
As you can tell from other things I've posted, I'm really into repetitive, soundtrack-type instrumentals. I recorded this the other day after listening to Faust's "71 Minutes", and the first Kraftwerk album. I will not try and hide how badly I want to be German in the 70s. I actually have a white eyelash on my left eyelid that grows longer than the other ones. I have to pluck it every once in a while or it becomes noticeable. Strange.
