Jupiter's Guide for Submariners was recorded entirely in Hoffman's Echo Park neighborhood studio in Los Angeles. Harkening back to the classic California sounds of the Beach Boys and The Carpenters, touches of bossa nova along with bits and pieces of the Golden State's magic distilled with visions of faraway destinations, create a truly beautiful album over twelve original tunes. Two tracks in particular, were influenced by Los Angeles: "Mt. Washington" and "In The Town of the Queen of the Angels."

Song titles include: "Mt. Washington", "Apis Mellifera", "Baby (I'm Thinking About You, Me & Somewhere)", "In the Town of the Queen of the Angels", "A Rather Large Television-Shaped Head", "Maybe", "The Boy with an Apple Where his Heart Should Be", "The Man Who Fell from the Sky", "Devil's Backbone", "Moon Angel", "Helixes" & "Goodnight Bright Eyes".

Jupiter's Guide for Submariners is a limited edition CD of only 500, each sleeve hand-stamped with artwork created by Akdogan. "Sean and I envisioned the album as having a parallel life in art, not just music", said Leyla Akdogan "The songs on Jupiter's Guide for Submariners are so full of narrative and imagery that we decided I would do a painting inspired by each track and it would culminate in an art opening planned for this fall with New Puppy Gallery in LA. The artwork is posted on the band website as it's finished along with signed, limited edition giclee prints which are available for purchase. "
