I Remember 2006 Band Wiki

**Welcome to the I Remember 2006 Band Wiki!**
This is a community for archiving the work and lore of the Psychedelic Progressive Math Folk Rock duo, I Remember 2006

I Remember 2006 (often shortened down to IR06) is a Psychedelic Progressive Math Folk Rock two man effort of multi-instrumentalist composers, Rafe (RonZak) LaNore and Wilbur Bullara. Originally started out as a secondary solo project to LaNore's main moniker, RonZak, back in 2015, I Remember 2006 became a duo back in late 2021, when Bullara joined. Ever since, Rafe and Wilbur have released nine I Remember 2006 albums, as well as four Rexton-Garnet Reels albums, two Sputnik Collective albums, one Vrishika Closing album, and one Aileron Assembly album, with an IR06 album and an R-GR album in the working. Inside of the world Rafe has been building for nearly eight years, (sometimes unintentionally,) IR06 has a crazy lore that goes from the 1800s to the 2100s, with a major part of the pre-merge eras taking place in 2000s, specifically '06, giving the band's name a different to what it was originally.

## Side Bands

As of the 21st of May, 2023, LaNore and Bullara have created five side bands with each. Two of such bands have had more than two members at one point, with one of them having officially three members. In order of creation, they are as follows.

### Rexton-Garnet Reels

Acting as a pre-sequel to Rafe's album, "Battle of Rexton-Garnet", Rexton-Garnet Reels, or R-GR, is about an enigmatic band during the 60-70's who were recording music whilst some invasion was happening in this small town known as Rexton-Garnet, which was a name thought up of two Michigan ghost towns. Just like I Remember 2006, R-GR is split into eras. LaNore has stated that the main story is coming to a close, but the band mates have talked about keeping the project round to explore more of what the "band" was like before the invasion.

The band was started as a trio-piece, with Rafe, Wilbur, and their friend, Chase Bundt. He left midway through the first album because of time constraints, but has mentioned interest of possibly doing another session. Rafe and Wilbur have also made it to where R-GR has an open-door policy for if their friends want to tag along in an R-GR session, saying it would "add to the lore."

#### Rexton-Garnet Reels Era Three: Old School Dystopian Tale

### Sputnik Collective

Sputnik Collective is another concept project about this enigmatic "collective" that makes music for fictional movies. It was spawned from the idea of Rafe wanting to do something similar to Swans, and make a fictional movie soundtrack, like Swans did with Soundtracks for the Blind. He also wanted to step away from making fictional video game soundtracks for a bit, since he was doing that quite a bit around the formation of Sputnik Collective with his solo work. (He's still working on another fictional game soundtrack called The Living City.)

Modern Atlantis Film Reel (upcoming)

### Aileron Assembly

Born from an abandoned IR06 idea, Aileron Assembly is a compositional project between Rafe and Wilbur. AA's first and currently only album is about the sky and clouds, and exploration. It has been called as a synthwave post-rock project.

### Vrishika Closing

Vrishika Closing, or, funnily enough, VC, is a no-wave band by Bullara and LaNore. It was heavily inspired by early Swans, especially Filth and Cop. It is the most aggressive Rafe and Wilbur get with their collaboration, with growled and screamed vocals, and crushing instrumentals. Meanwhile , the albums by such project tend to be their shortest release in not just time span, but with track lists. Their first VC album has seven tracks, while the sophomore VC effort will have only six tracks. But don't let that ease you, because the tracks tend to be long, between 6-8 minutes in length.

Lost Wreckage

Chalking Virosis

### A Case of Primordials

A Case of Primordials was born from a long time coming trio session that in planning for months. It was formed by Rafe LaNore, Wilbur Bullara, and Brandon Cooper, or "L'il Coop". It is heavier than most of Bullara, Cooper, and LaNore's stuff, and can be described as a Progressive Psychedelic Blues Math No Wave Post-Metal band... Good luck with thinking of a genre name for that mess. But essentially, A Case of Primordials is a Progressive Psychedelic Post Rock band, but they are full of genre categories. To quote the Bandcamp page's bio: "A Case of Primordials is a three-piece band all about improvisation, long pieces, chaos, and the primordial state of the universe colliding with modern day."

### Conversation, Adversary

Conversation, Adversary is the newest moniker of LaNore and Bullara. Heavily inspired by Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Conversation, Adversary is " a post rock project about long tracks with movements." The first album they've made was about various roads in Muskegon, where the members are from. The second album was an anti-war album.
