Kevin Grant: (composer, booklet commentary)

Originally supposed to be a practice project so I could learn how to sample, I added in a few piano riffs from Black and it took on a life of its own. The most obvious sample is from "It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing", but other samples in there inclue the trumpet from an old 1940s big band song, and the drums from "Paint It Black" by the Rolling Stones. For a song that wasn't even originally a song, I think it came out pretty well. Enjoy!

Brad Griffin: (booklet editor)

If another one of these commentaries ends with "Enjoy" I am going to punch everyone.

Great perspective work on the art.

My track art contribution for LOFAM3, for a song called Sketches in black. I hope they will like it! c:

#I'm super nervous #what if they don't like it???? #Oh god #But at least I'm very proud of it as a picture #So I really really hope they will like it! #I find it's very interesting that in every universe no matter if it's troll human or cherub #Jack and The black Queen's story seems to start around a desk administration work and #hateful black sketches
