A Night in Venice California 14 files

On the way over in the bottom of a bottle, we dreamed up a few-ities that tickled even the one called "Pencil" way back when on the blacktop schoolyard. And here's what happened in one night all unto itself.

Early Draft: PeaceNix PeaceMix 1 file

I was working on this mix for a while and taped over a few versions along the way to the final. I wanted to find out how to lay things on top of each other that were not supposed to be together, except in my own head. Everything you hear is mixed live with vinyl, cassette, and CD to one recording location. I had a garage full of speakers. It was pretty dope. Anyhow, peace and war and relaxation and dancing really do belong together. Have fun. (For those who care, this is circa 1995.)

Lysol and Sausage 2 files

There was a house on 15th street that belonged to a friend of the family and there were two kids that we babysat from time to time and once and again. . .and anyhow some woman showed up who was Laundered and Relocated, but then she went to make the place smell like Lysol and Sausage. Surely a memorable smell.

Sessions that spanned the months in between commitments, here is a hint at things to come. . .all cleaned up and mixed up and shook up like elvis martinis.
