I’m happy to announce that we’re teaming up with New York City’s Baskervilles for the release of their new album, Twilight, due out this spring. The album, which was originally part of a free “MP3 a Month” project, is finally being mastered and released on CD. Produced by the impeccably impeccable, Mitch Easter, Twilight embodies the spirit of contemporary indie/new wave.
Greatings. I just wanted to touch base - it’s been a few weeks since the last news posting.
We’re especially excited to announce our newest team member, the LA-based, live sketch comedy show, Fries On The Side. FOTS is starting its 5th season this summer and I’m stoked to be working with them. Unlike traditional sketch comedy, Fries is a brutal mash-up of sketch and improv, with a casting call just 2 hours before show time, the actors must learn their lines and be ready for showtime with barely any rehearsal. The results are typically hilarious, and oftentimes genius. And there’s always a guest host and band. Former hosts include: Alan Ruck, Tommy Davidson, Christopher Titus and more! Here’s some live video from a prior show:
Great CMJ chart news with Clock Hands Strangle’s Redshift/Blueshift coming in in the top 100 for multiple weeks in a row. That’s exciting news for the Florida-based quintet.
I’m going to have some new announcements and roster additions this month as well, but I don’t want to speak too early. Expect plenty of awesome indie rock to come out of this office in the early parts of 2008, including releases from the Baskervilles, Mighty Purple, Pez Wilson and more!
