			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In six days, spaced over three weekends, three guys online, recording songs collaboratively, grabbing what the other made and putting some guitar on top, or some stream-of-consciousness vocals, or some crazy radio static. That was the dynamic that resulted in the creation of <em>Tree</em>, a full-length (well, 30 minutes long) digital release by The Color and the Leaves project!</p>
<p>What we lack in technical skills we make up for in craziness, I think. Lots of good stuff in there, and I can even count some of my own in that category! Tools used (other than the boring ones) include: a Game Boy emulator, an actual Game Boy, a keyboard running out of batteries, and a kettle. The two guys who made this with me are Matt Peter (go listen to <a href="http://www.fireandrobot.com/">his stuff</a>) and Cody Ross (first timer, like me—though he can actually play his musical instruments, which is <em>unlike</em> me).</p>

<p><a href="http://cllct.com/release/tree">Play it streamed or download song by song</a>, or just get <a href="http://www.agj.cl/files/music/colorleaves/tree/The%20Color%20and%20the%20Leaves%20-%20Tree.zip">the whole thing in one zip file</a> (69 MB). Here are the <a href="http://www.agj.cl/files/music/colorleaves/tree/tree_credits.txt">detailed credits</a>. [Edit: These were compiled by Matt, forgot to mention that. Cool.]</p>
<p>If you think that having this digital thing sitting there in your harddrive is not very exciting, and decide to burn it on a CD, here’s a <a href="http://www.agj.cl/files/music/colorleaves/tree/tree_sleeve.pdf">sleeve design</a> I made, which you can print on a regular letter, or similar sized, paper sheet (on both sides). After you print it, all you need to do is fold around the edges of the square, length-wise first. The overlapping flaps can be fit one into the other to neatly close it.</p>
