Retired projects include:
SIGHUP: noisedrone project, first iteration of Signal Hangup, active between 2004 and 2011. Performed a handful of live shows during that period.
Esau Radio Studio: instrumental synthpop psychedelia, active between 2001 and 2004. Received some radio play, but otherwise had a fleeting existence.

The Bonnie: low, low fidelity cassette project, quaint but probably mostly terrible.
