This Karma Canon session was my first basement jam of 2010. The name “Category7″ is actually an homage to Lee… his Freak of the Week Category ID is 7

Well, I guess 8 months isn’t exactly a “short” break, but one that was definitely needed. However, I now feel up to the challenge of posting another 50 pieces of improvisational music.  One thing I really look forward to this year is going back though the ADAT 8-Track recordings I have from my Astrocade days. This has been made possible by a grant from Red Attic Studios… my friend Joe Castro was nice enough to lend me a fully functioning ADAT like the one I used to always record on in those days. Mine broke :(  I hope to be able to intersperse these ADAT archives with new excursions.

I wanted to start off this year with a collection of Karma Canon recordings that Lee put together. It is basically a mix of early material that Lee assembled into a collection for some of his friends. I like the “Old Library” look of the artwork Although these recordings seem like they were a forever ago, the oldest one is probably only 8 years old.

I have posted the tracks below, but you can also DOWNLOAD A ZIP FILE of this entire mix.

Enjoy!
