About Ho River Blues...this recording took place over the past few months. Everything except two drum tracks (and one mysterious audio track) was recorded in my living-room. Every sound you hear, for better or worst, was created by me. The final version of Ho River Blues will be available for download from the eviltwins website in a date to be determined later (read: it's not finished yet).
There is a bit of confusion about the origin of the songs. Some people thought i had recorded all of these tracks while living in a tent. I wish. The songs were demoed while on a road trip on the 101 that landed me in Olympic National Park. There were 16 total written and demoed on the trip - only 9 made the final cut. I hope to produce the final seven in the next 6 mos as a follow up. For more on the reason why, check out the blog. Otherwise, enjoy and stay tuned for more additions to the play-list!
To note, these tracks were mixed FLAT and sound best with ZERO sound enhancers at VERY LOUD VOLUMES!!!!
