Lowtech 2002 This was kind of the greatest hits from the "Minky" sessions plus some new stuff. It had this indie cool kids pack with stickers, a Zira button, 3" cdep, foldy cover, all in a baggie. Ana Tosca and Charlie Calderin sang back up on Like a Champ. Johnny Calderin played drums on Winter Holiday. Hassib Chebli played bass on Do or Try. Charlie sang lead on Boomerang. Mixed by Marco Corales. Mastered by Eric Rasco (who mixed #7). Itche Butchez rocked the Single Malt remix. Recorded at U-11 mixed at Unit 7. Cover Design - Charlie Calderin. Minky 1999-2002 This started it all I was between bands a decided to start Zira. Zira is a recording project ranging from micro-cassette, to digitaland analog multitrack recordings.The songwriting is mainly done by me, with guest appearances by friends. Each of the "Minky" cassettes was numbered and unique from the others, due to track listing and/or order of songs. Included was an insert denoting song titles and guest musicians. Unless it was otherwise noted i was responsible for all the craziness. Each cassette had song numbers so you knew what was what from the insert. Here are the first five tracks , Walter Roeder_beats, turntables, four track on song 1. Matt Cohen - 2nd bass ,Mix and recording on song 2. Mike Dean- recording on song 4. Charlie Calderin 2nd guitar on song 5.
