Centrefuge ep (Music Fellowship) was released in 1999 and included many of the home recordings that Aaron did before the band was formed, along with the very first music that Landing made as a group. After re-locating to Connecticut, Landing began the busiest year of their existence in 2001. They released the full lengths Circuit (Music Fellowship) and Oceanless (which was actually recorded before Circuit but came out after on Strange Attractors Audio House) and also put out a split tour ep with Windy & Carl (Music Fellowship). Landing toured a few times in 2001 including a summer tour with the amazing Windy & Carl! During this time period, Adam Forkner (Yume Bitsu, VVRSSNN, White Rainbow, World) came into the picture and Aaron, Daron, and Dick started making music with Forkner and Phil Jenkins under the name Surface...
