The name of this improvised jam says it all. It sounds like a contant build up through the entire song, kinda like The Lost Cymbol. It starts off with a dreamy rhodes and ends with loud drum rolls.

Well, quite a lot of background work has been going on in the last couple of weeks and we now have a brand new website set up. This site allows for much easier syndication of the songs, videos and other content we post up each week, making it easier for you to be able to access the material in whichever way you prefer. Within the next couple of days, we should have some podcasting capabilities set up so that you’ll be able to download the music we put out there through a subscription method rather than having to remember to always come back and check the page on a week to week basis.
Additionally, we’ve added some great new “Chilljam Radio” players to contain all of the archived material so that those of you who wish to listen to the music in sequence are able to do so. Personally, I love to listen to music while I work through the day on my Mac. Our previous page didn’t really allow for a good way to listen to more than a single song at a time. These new players now allow you to listen through entire albums, or even listen through the entire collection all at once.
Please feel free to comment and post feedback so we can continue to build the site in a way that fits your needs.
Now, as to this week’s song. We have another video for you. This week’s video includes the same set of lyrics as last week’s but is a session from the following week. Rather than play at Neil’s house, as we have been for quite awhile, we played this song at Jeremy’s house, with completely different instruments so the effect is a completely different feel from the previous version of the song. Please enjoy!

Too many days down dark holes
Waiting for the homecoming.
There are some tough times happening for a lot of people lately. Everyone’s looking for why the economy seems to be melting down.
Personally, I think the source is simple excess.
This song is a personification of excess.
Excess in it’s most disgusting outfit going out for a night on the town.
An example of a life lived in an era where resources are unlimited.
Here’s one that I pieced together during multiple lunch breaks at work.
It’s hard to find time to make music these days, so I try to take full advantage of my lunch by recording little parts here and there.
Most of the music was made with the Garageband preset beats and sounds, but I also layered some stuff with my Synth.
I think we hit a milestone with this one. The time signature in this beat is unlike anything we’ve done before. The extra added storm effects in the end go right along with the lyrics and thundering drums.
Split Open and Melt is a goofy use of Phish’s lyrics from the song of the same name. I thought it was fun to play around with the huge flange effect that was found on our mixing board and drastically change pitches through it so that it sounded like my voice was melting at times.
Lazy Sun Melts is a trippy, shimmery work. There’s no real direction. There’s no purpose. It’s like a sonic representation of lazy.
This is a short mellow piece featuring saxaphone. The sax gradually takes the music into an abstract composition that dissolves in the end.
A note a warning to listeners, Seahorse isn’t exactly a song; it’s a short collection of noise from one of our sessions.
The end result is a strange collection of saw-like reversed signal instruments in an open and non-rhythmic atmosphere. I found the sounds to be an interesting and complex arrangement of noise and just wanted to post it up as another example of the strange things that can come from our jam sessions.
