about

This is a collection of demos recorded on various cassettes using the same cheap ONN recorder that I recorded 1 on. These recordings range from mid to late 2019 to September 2020. The recording of these were much looser with the majority of the lyrics of these songs being improvised as I was recording them and songs like Weak being almost entirely improvised as I was recording. All songs except for Drive (which was written and recorded over the course of about an hour and a half in the back seat of my car) were recorded in my bedroom. These were intended to be demos for songs that I would re-record so they're definitely rougher than some of the stuff I'm working on now. I intend to come back to a number of these songs because they're rough and I've worked on my voice a lot since recording most of them but for now I just wanted to release them so that I could focus on the new songs that I'm writing and work on closing the chapter of my life that these demos represent. Enjoy.

Twin Fantasy
by Car Seat Headrest

This is my favorite album of all time. It honestly changed the way that I think about the world and music, particularly lo-fi Bandcamp music. It's incredible. Famous Prophets is a masterpiece. -Mars Moonly Mars

DC Snuff Film / Waste Yrself
by teen suicide

I always come back to this album, there's something lethargically melancholic about these songs that I really enjoy and it seems timeless to me. -Moonly Moonly Mars
