A BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THIS ALBUM:
This was the project where I made the switch from analog tape to computer recording, and I remember being stymied a lot.
I had a basement studio and would spend long periods of time staring at the ceiling, in this case, the floorboards (hence the title), frustrated at my technological stupidity.
