Released: fall 2008
Label: self-released
Fall 2008 recording folder. Notably contains a track “gel pens.mp3” — the same title later appears as “gel pens 2010” (track 1) on BIEBER JERBOA. This suggests Colin revisited this title/track at least twice over a two-year period, a pattern of self-quotation seen elsewhere in the catalog.
Confirmed tracks (from archive filenames)
- 01 smile bus.m4a
- 02 but not asleep where there is.m4a
- 03 ever folks ever where.mp3
- 03 in by accident.m4a
- 06 red volvo.mp3
- dance song.m4a
- gel pens.mp3 ← early version of “gel pens 2010” on BIEBER JERBOA
- huge antenna, empathic stuff.m4a
- lets try it again, shell..m4a
- moved the same.m4a
Notes
Track number collisions (two track 03s) suggest multi-session folder. “huge antenna, empathic stuff” is a characteristically long descriptive title. “lets try it again, shell..” is an unusually personal/conversational title. “moved the same” has an abstract, emotional quality unlike the more playful animal-themed titles from earlier in 2008 — possibly evidence of a stylistic shift in fall 2008.
