These songs, archived in alphabetical order, were mostly written and recorded after the birth of my children in 2006 and 2007, with a few exceptions, such as the project Waiting at the Bus Stop with Yang, which I wrote with Tony Ward, recorded and produced in 2000 (Tony Ward – Bass and Vocals, Evan Landaw – Drums and synthesizer) , and remastered in 2017, and Ephemuet, written and recorded in 2002 with Evan Landaw.
The subject matter of these songs are diverse, from writing about current science trends (Dark Matter), to living in a mobile home park (Sold my Mobile Home) or about random things I heard about in the news, or were thinking about (Another Day in Iraq). The recordings were done in a documentary, archival way, with little focus on final production value (except for Waiting at the Bus Stop With Yang, which I spent considerable time and effort producing).
Enjoy – Jon
