TAPE RIPS/UPLOADS FOR YOU TO DOWNLOAD

I now have a means to rip cassette tapes to digital files.
What this means for you is that you can make a request of a tape that I have, and I will then make a digital files for you. Within reason. That is, if the tape is still in print/easily available, I won't do it. If the tape is some massive C90+, and it's not something that I particularly enjoy, I might not do it. And if I do do it, I might not put the effort into separating tracks. If an artist/label asks not to have their stuff uploaded, I will remove the link as soon as possible.
Anyway, to see a list of my tape collection, head over to this blog . See anything you're interested in, let me know and I'll do what I can, when I can.

Cordyceps

Well...
My first "album" as Cordyceps is finished. I've (temporarily) titled it Fireworks, though that is subject to change. It's 5 tracks, 36 minutes and 42 seconds long, and was written/improvised/recorded over the past week or so. It is also the first time I've recorded, or even played any music in about two years exactly. It can maybe sound unfocused at times, but overall I actually really like it. I've got twelve "followers" on here, thought I don't know if anyone actually "follows" this, so I might be writing this to no one, but you're welcome/encouraged to download it. And leave feedback. Even negative stuff.


Cordyceps - "Fireworks" (Mediafire link, zip file)
1) Decorational Rugs (4:37)
2) Pulsar (2:41)
3) Deimos Anomaly (8:56)
4) Prognosis Negative (4:49)
5) Abominable Abdominal Stars (15:42)

Also, add me on MySpace.

If you download it, and you enjoy it, and would like a physical copy, I will send you one for free, with the above artwork. I'm personally really sick of artists releasing digital-only albums/eps, especially ones that they charge money for. But even the free ones. As this blog shows, I like physical releases. :-)


Lastly, to explain the name...

Monday was cool...got the two new McGuire discs from Hanson, along with a surprise in the form of the entire latest Stunned batch. Other than that, a pretty boring week. Labels shouldn't sell direct if they can't handle doing mail order.
