Released in 2006, collecting a variety of small sounds surrounding a weekend of events and happenings in Flagstaff and Tempe, AZ.
"Arizona has the good fortune of having James Fella not only running the Gilgongo Records empire of regional experimental and thrash-damage weirdness but Fella himself releasing his solo sound-world. His cassette Nomadic Sounds, co-released with the C-Salt label is excellent. Tape rumbling, bells chiming, heart in the clouds music-love. And it's really short, like some kinda Tempe daydream." - Thurston Moore (Bull Tongue #28)
