Episode 1 - Arbour + Fantompower
Longtime friends and indie band mates in Club Mage, Hans Watkins (aka Arbour) and Justus Yearous (aka Fantompower) are natural collaborators from years of working together in Bellingham, WA. Effortlessly working in unison to create not your average beat tape; utilizing nearly every piece of gear in the Inner Ocean studio, Hans' handheld tape recorder and the brutal Canadian winter to create a truly special EP.
[Recorded February 16-20, 2019]
Episode 2 - G Mills
Gabriel Millman (aka G Mills) from Brooklyn, NY, has one of those infectious personalities you can't help but love, shining through his music like diamonds. Arriving at Inner Ocean HQ during a freak blizzard in true Calgary form, he started the beat making process while stuck on a plane rerouted to Edmonton! His beats are chill and uplifting, always putting a smile on your face.

Episode 3 - Joe Nora + Yuutsu
Having only met in person one time before, Josef Nygaar (aka Joe Nora) from Los Angeles, CA, and Jashan Makan (aka Yuutsu) from Calgary, AB, they dove in head first to collaborate on an EP that blends both of their unique sounds. Pulling from Yuutsu's highly cinematic and minimal compositional style and Nora's incredibly texture rich production, their complimentary sounds give way to some seriously magical moments.
[Recorded Aug 10-15, 2019]
Episode 4 - Peter Bark
Dan Panarese (aka Peter Bark) from Brooklyn, NY, always holds true to his artistic vision, forever keeping to his own lane, whether it's crafting beats, house or ambient music. Right away Panarese was pulling apart tape cassettes, using the 4 track Tascam Portastudio to layer endless ultra lush synth and guitar droning tape loops. The following days were spent experimenting with sound design and collecting a vibrant palette of loops and segments that he would later use to sculpt an ambient EP that flows in a continuous 3 part movement. His creation is truly out of this world, each listen revealing new layers of depth and detail.
[Recorded Sep 29 - Oct 2, 2019]
