Treble DJs live at the Darkroom" (excerpt)
The Darkroom was the main High Knee recording studio, located
in the basement of a decrepit house at 631 N. 24th Street, Lincoln, Nebraska.
It was in use from 1995 to 1998, and a lot of 'classics' were recorded there:
The first three MCMS albums; large parts of the third and fourth Think albums
(Warm Fuzzies & Cold Pricklies; The Drift); Duo
by Io; Mad Peeps by Dawn Rickles, Cheyntara's ^^^^^^^^^^66666^^^^^^^^^,
large parts of Matt Silcock's eponymous release on Public Eyesore.....and
more.

Scientists" (excerpt)

Bits from cassettes you buy at thrift stores are the best intros
for crazy noise jams.
