Peter sneaking a beautiful acoustic version of DiskothiQ's "Hit The North 3" onto this comp under his Party of One alias is an absolute masterclass. You might never seek this one out, but I rarely shut up about it. Has to make the DiskothiQ best-of album I see in my dreams. You can finally hear a little of it further down this page, too.

Other contributions of note: "68x8" by Paste; "Cat Scratch Fever" by Franklin Bruno. "Cat Scratch Fever" appears on Fayettenam compilation "Local Currency: Solo 1992-1998".

Additional Shrimper: "Hand Ball" and "Alpha Omega" by the Mountain Goats, "Waiting For My Wife" by John Davis, and "Sorrow Floats" by Simon Joyner of Grapefruit Records.

A FEW CLIPS are now available, but just the few in this site's current area of interest, with more coming in the future. Included in the below audio file are short clips (okay, the Party of One clip runs a little long, it's important, trust me) from, in order:
