This song’s genesis occured when Monsieur Obscure created a drum loop from a short piece of the introductory drum section played by David Roda in the song  Nomad Jam. The resulting song gradually developed and slowly took shape upon that foundation... With Will Shanks adding the bass and organ parts, David Roda adding additional drums and percussion, Paul Nauman and Mariana Nenadic-Shanks adding their respective vocal parts, Dan Becker adding a Wurlitzer Piano part to the ending, Aaron Piazza contributing additional Roto-Tom parts, and Monsieur Obscure stirring the pot with various guitar parts and noises, including the mallot-ized guitar pictured above.

(A thoroughly detailed description of the entire writing and recording process, as well as all the instruments, equipment, and software used can be found in the accompanying article found in the Zen and the Art of Hamsquint Jazz blog here...)
