In 1996, Dredg recorded and released their first demos of original material, the Conscious EP, garnering them exposure as far away as Boston. Currently, very little information has ever been released about these demos. In 1997, they released what would become the early stages of their musical transition, the Orph EP . It includes the group’s first instrumental track, “Orph”. Additionally, the track “Kayasuma” shares its title with the name of the shaman in Leitmotif ‘ s liner notes for “Lechium”. With the release, Dredg slowly built a name for themselves in the Bay Area , as well as on the East Coast, such as in Boston and New York .
