**THE BANDS AND LOST RECORDINGS PART 2" is here !!!

www.cdbaby.com/cd/infantini2

i am guitarist and have been for more than 20 years. All of the music on "the bands & lost recordings" was written and aranged by me as well.
i began noodling on a guitar since around the age of 9 when i didn't know how to play but tryed to anyway and recorded most of it.what began to happen was an understanding of playing writing and aranging.i began recording after discovering my sisters tape recorder and the comedy skits she was doing with her friends i thought to myself "wow,you can record anything what a concept!!!
so 25 plus years later i have well over 100 cassette tapes ,the medium that i used to use,now,it's all digital recordings also transfer from analog to digital.

This cd is a collection from the past 15 years of 8,16 & 24 track studio recording(s) as well as rehearsal recording(s) using a hand held recording device placed on the floor.

Track(s) 10 & 12 home recordings,i have hours of this kind of stuff ranging from 1983 to 1989 all done on an analog 4 track Fostex cassette recorder some of which you can here on tracks 10,12,17 & 19

"scandal feast" & "no job too small" - all band members listed , in an "audio mutation" form as well as joe drummer & bill bassist on the very first section of "scandal feast" , i only know joe & bill's first name cause i only jamed with them once on a cold grey november day in 1992.


"no job too small" is an "audio mutation" it includes a conversation that was recorded,simply because it's easier to record than it is to write down all your verbal ideas, featuring me and drummer stu from V.A.i.L,while we were having a band meeting and began laughing,captured forever on an audio recording...


Here is a list of each song with brief info:
1) **threshold** - i did this in 1 take,standard tuning
2) **telling of the story** - 3 takes standard tuning
3) **tribe** - 1 take for first rhythm guitar,about 5 or 6 for the second rhythm guitar,there was alot of tension in the studio, we did this song so good at rehearsals, here is the tuning DADADD
