about

Here's a third (I think) collection of early, lo-fi recordings. Most were done on a Tascam 4-Track Porta Studio, or in inexpensive basement or attic studios. On many, I was filled with LUV in only the way a very young man can be - idealistic, poetic, overwhelmed. I enjoy hearing these. They were written and recorded all over the place - check the notes below.

I want to mention: with the release of this collection, I've released a total of 213 songs. This is the exact number of songs The Beatles released on their official UK albums, EPs, and singles. Should I stop here? Hmmm....stay tuned. (Hint: I probably won't; I'll keep going, which is crazy. Who needs more songs than The Beatles?)

Two-Cassette Deck Bounces
by Steve Rosenbaum

Steve is a genius. His lo-fi pop, made mainly in the 80s and 90s, is some of the most melodic, heartfelt, hooky stuff from the era. Kent Liverpool
