The New Mexican Revolution

Wes came over last week for a few days and wanted to record a new little EP demo.. a few new songs and a few old ones, all of them great. and moreover, he wanted to be little more experimental with 'em, which i always appreciate. he probably had ten songs, but we ended up working on three or four to the exclusion of some others, emily and wes and myself. they ended up neat, i think.

Crooked Trees - this is typical of how awesome wes' songs are. and it's got a neat keyboard outro, something we wouldn't have done before.

Disaster Won't Come - this was for a short film, Jack Hankey's Disaster by Jack Gibson (aka tenlon's fort), but this is a different version than that one.

Lines & Waves - has been a tNMR song for a long time now, but never got recorded that well. i think it's real pretty, and emily wrote that last little ending bit, really awesome.

Los Santeros - has also been around a bit, and features Emily pretty heavily.. Wes entered this into a salon.com contest, and we never heard a thing from them. hmph.

personally i preferred the old aaronmacdonald.com

the aaron macdonald who ran that site, was much much cooler, haha.

then some ad nazis hijacked his site, turned it into a search engine, and sold it to you apparently...

it's a shame really.

i hope that 6:45 AM tag means you had to stay up all night, drinking and 'steeling' your nerve in order to post such criticism.

it shouldn't be easy to hurt me so badly.
