anna and I wrote and recorded this LP over the course of about the past two years. all the songs started as fun little loops we passed back and forth between our linked gameboys running nanoloop 1.5. additional instruments were added to form cohesive songs and digital soundscapes.

anna crain: microkorg keyboard, vocals, gameboy, bell kit, bass, theremin, melodica, monotron, thingamagoop 2
jacob weiss: drum kit, guitar, casio vl-tone, ebow, gameboy, pico paso, kazoo, bit blog jr, drum samples, toy percussion

thank you so much for listening, we hope you enjoy it!

does anyone have any nanoloop one or nanoloop 1.5 carts they'd like to sell?

one of our nanoloop one carts just died, and we have a show on July 11 that we really need a new one for.

and we're also looking for nanoloop 1.5 carts, but those aren't a dire need.

we'll cover cost + shipping.

thank you!
