I believe this was basically just Yoni messing around before a show or something, recorded on a phone. He posted it to his tumblr a while ago. Then that recording was touched up a bit for its inclusion on "Snowjams (Covers Tape)". I'm not surprised it sounds bad, fidelity-wise.

I think Eskimo Snow was ultimately a good album. I understand why it was the black sheep, but it really is a valuable part of the WHY? cannon.
