He used guitars to varying degrees, and favored droney, distorto, boombox-in-the-red methods. I got in touch with him, he was game, and we started collaborating on what would become 'We Substitute Radiance' in early 2007.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe process was convoluted. Ryan lived in Bloomington, Illinois. I lived in Atlanta. We were separated by over 500 miles, had different software\/hardware setups, and there was no practical online file sharing available at the time. So, we snail-mailed CDRs back and forth and emailed, emailed, emailed. We only talked on the phone twice.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis was a new way of working for both of us, and I suppose we liked it, because we managed to assemble six tracks of psychotropic headphone food. James Plotkin mastered it all, which was another first. The results were released in 2008.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSadly, years later, Ryan and I have yet to be in the same room.\" - Sean Moore\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"An art-damaged jam between Tangerine Dream, early 90's Residents, and a dubbed-out electro-King Crimson.
