about

Salvaged and remastered recordings from the first collaboration, on 2/25/2009. Most details now lost to mythos. What is known is that it was recorded in an open room in the attic of a house in North Carolina on one USB microphone. The original name of the project was Bazino Bazino, The Kid Who's Hair Is On Fire, and the initial recording length was five hours long, which in this volume has been substantially reduced. What follows is half remembered conjecture, and likely not approximate.

The improvisational noise-jam consisted of at least eight, but not more than ten participants. Some of us were friends directly, others had caught wind of the activity and asked to join; some (it is believed) may have shown up uninvited, and one was ran out by threat before the recording took place due to unrelated bad blood. However, there was this person named Jeremy who had come along somehow, and none of us knew him at all, and never really spoke to him during or after the event took place - or ever again. He just came and left, and carried a lot of weight on the recording in between. It's not as if we're wistful, but those of us who remember being there have talked about it and we all agree that yeah - we don't really know who that guy was. So Jeremy, this is also for you.

The recording was lost for years, but recently it resurfaced as I would not let the issue down. I hope for very little, but I hoped that this had survived somewhere on an external drive so that I could try and do something decent with it. Lo and behold, I was correct; years of hard living and memory loss between us could not kill it. I did my best with it in the limited amount of time that I had, and that will have to suffice.

In summation, A Burnt Hush presents a record called 2/25/2009.

Yours Truly,

Von Skump
