[#s 1 & 8] recorded direct to 2 DATs in performance @ 3030 in Chicago, on July 16, 2024. Completed mixdowns combine both the 'house' ambient recording and simultaneous recordation proctored by John K Erskine. Additionally, [track #8] enhancement utilizing AbletonLive achieved (in real time!) at the Recording Arts Center (RAC) of Hope College. All other selections derived from a 'live' recording session in Snow Auditorium, Hope College, Holland, MI, on December 22, 2004.  Entire project edited/collated at both the RAC, and at GBP, East Lansing, MI (special thanks to Glenn Brown), October/November 2005.
