Post-Tokyo through to the January '07 reheasal residency at NOHspace finds the musicians gleaning an hour or three here and there amidst a holiday fervor, creating new songs, modifying existing songs and experimenting with sounds. This past Sunday found Liz A. (resplendant in orange and what is she holding in her hand?) and Jason S. (dangerously close to a recently played Balypso), with a heap of stuff, at House of Zoka. Together with Jonathan S. we tried some new ideas, recorded them and intend to multi-track some as standalone songs. Maybe that's the name of a single CD release encapsulating the whole work through a quasi-pop lens. YugenOrchestra's "Standalone Songs." It has a nice ring to it.
