Munchie’s Emporium - Fort Wayne, IN
I: Moss Shoes, In the Bliss > It’s All Clear to Me Now, L’immeuble
II: Floating Amidst, Nematode, Spiraling Line of Light, Sunrain > Continuum
We were based in Indiana during this time as a few of us were finishing up at Goshen College. Munchie’s was a restaurant in Fort Wayne that had a small stage in the corner. There couldn’t have been more than 25 people in attendance as I remember it. The band was far from tight, but the rawness of the improvisation and experimentation with effects pedals and electronic percussion in service of long, atmospheric jams has a certain charm and made this a popular early recording on Archive.org. I remastered from the original soundboard 2-track recording to bring back some clarity, clean up noise and even out the levels overall. - Jesse Miller

"If you look up Lotus in Webster’s dictionary you will find it says “Lotus- Munchies 02 Sunrain”. Sunrain a were never the same after that. Arguably the greatest jam they have ever done. I want whatever the band was on this night because it doesn’t get much better than this, from any band. Thank you and goodnight."
