John Reeve and the Krellmachine enjoy helping folks. One of the ways in which we/I/they can help is by engineering and producing recordings, or by playing instruments in the context of an ensemble.
There are several places where this has happened.
Tom Foolery and the Mistakes
John Reeve played bass with the mistakes for several months back in 1999, when they drove to Ohio and back playing music along the way. TFaTM played their last show in 2006, and you can see Kyle Sowash's (the driving force behind the band) most recent efforts on myspace.com. Here, through the magic of 4-Track Cassette and the Krellmachine's digital logic, is late-90s Emo music recorded in Lubbock in spring of 1999:
Noel Williams
The Machine saved this version of Time in a Bottle from analogue degradation.

Ambient Music For Christian Conrad
Christian Conrad is an artist currently working in Lubbock, TX. We worked together to produce a video installation piece that was displayed at J&B coffee in November of 2006. You can access the videos from that installation here (Due Live Aug 2007).
Also, with Emily Reeve we made a longer noise collage, in four parts:
The Wheatly Kids
During the 2006-20007 school year, John Reeve worked at an afterschool program with a number of elementary school students in Fall 2006, they produced a set of songs a s a CD.
