about

I have absolutely hated the sound of fretless electric bass for my entire life. On August 27, 2018, I received a fretless neck in the mail and attached it to a spare Squier Jazz body I had sitting around. On August 28, 2018, I set out to make one improv or semi-improv micro-song a night for a month, with the fretless bass and "I am really trying not to hate this thing" being the only consistent elements. Now I am releasing the entire resulting 43-minute batch of 30 experiments. I'm sorry.
