about

There are two stories to this album.

One is, the guys from Resistor all have a natural interest in improvisation and during the course of weekly band practice play a lot of spontaneous improvised jams. At one time they made a large printed image of a keyboard and would point at the next key with their feet to orchestrate more organized jams. At one point they started recording them. Several of these songs on this album are improvised pieces. Several others are composed pieces. All are instrumentals.

The other story is that while on a quest for the Land Of No Groove (see Resistor Rise) the guys from Resistor met the Secret Island Band and jammed with them. Resistor recorded those sessions and bring them to you in The Secret Island Band Jams.
