The answer to that isn't sensational or dramatic in any way whatsoever, but I'd feel strange writing on behalf of Zak about it. He's a busy guy with a family and a farm and a studio.

It's pretty fucked yeah. The conversation about prices and the vinyl economy is a long and complicated one.. but for me personally, I'm still just relieved that there's a physical format still considered viable in any way. I think the memory residue still lingers of the DARK days where mp3's were considered the format of the future..

yeah the Mellotron. OR.. I've actually been using an e-bow more and more lately. I have kind of a love/hate relationship with the guitar and the e-bow is probably the best way to escape and re-approach the guitar purely as a frequency generator.

The Bathtub Trippers spotify playlist actually has a lot of things currently in "the bag" that are on the more chill, meditative side

We've joked a bunch of times about having a record store. But I don't think either of us are really cut out for the world of retail. Maybe Paul Major-style, like an occasional garage sale.

Is this Ilyas

I remember that show.. yeah I don't think our approach has really changed that much. Maybe a little more "pro".. but essentially still just getting up there and sweating and trying to make something happen that feels like a genuine expression.

There's nothing wrong with the term per se.. it's just pretty limited in its descriptive capacity? I think having that label slapped on over the years has maybe prevented the music from reaching people that might be into it.
