Words & Music by james madison thomas
Searching my hard drives for
material for this website, I un-
earthed stuff I had not seen in years, stuff that got left behind, most of it, from a collection.
I found a couple of the guitar pieces hiding on a micro-SD card in my looper pedal, and a couple more on the TASCAM Portastudio I've used only a few times so far. Some of this stuff is almost as new to me
as it would be to you.

04. Miles From Home

06. If I Were Claude
I found these two tracks in a Sketches 1998-99 Folder. Track 5 is the logo music for a film that doesn't exist. I think you'll get the picture. Track 6 is the preliminary version of what became Miniature No. 4.

Culture was the name of an early German percussion samples program
that I had. I used some of the samples on my Jesus video. So when I first got it, I made a recording of some of the sounds without any preliminary thought of form. This is what it sounded like.
