many thanks to The Art of Rock and Metal (link here) for reminding me that yesterday was the 18th birthday of my first album.

happy birthday, ‘codes and secret longing’.

though it’s long been broken and unusable, i still own the Fostex 4-track recorder that i created the first versions of all 13 of those songs on. perhaps we’ll have some cake later, me and the machine.

love,

eric.
