Exercise Fever by 10,000 Lakes
This is the second 10,000 Lakes album, recorded in late spring/early summer '96 all in one night. I was 19 and had the whole house to myself, which was pretty rare, so I collected my ideas and instruments and put them all onto a tape at once. The sound quality isn't spectacular, but this kind of music is for the hardcore lo-fi fan anyway. At the time, I was involved with the MoFo catalog and was inspired by getting the music out there. The MoFo catalog was a lot like Bandcamp, except it was like a website that was on paper instead, and the download required a blank tape, SASE, and stamps.

10,000 Lakes began in 1993, as a solo project using a Casio SA-7, a combination of acoustic and electric guitar, and completely random lyrics recorded onto a tape recorder. The style has mostly stayed the same, except for a change in keyboard to a CA-110, and pro mic's and a mixer. Chopstick shoes. My belt buckle rented someone else's cupcake remedy.
