Vic Chesnutt
At The Cut

“Chesnutt’s second album to feature musicians from Thee Silver Mt. Zion,
Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Witchies and Guy Picciotto from Fugazi
(who also co-produced the record with Howard Bilerman) picks up where
North Star Deserter (2007) left off, with an explosive group of arrangers
and players allowing Vic to conjure snarling spittle and devastating
fragile grace in equal measure.”

“…impish, surly, witty, unflinching perspective, brilliantly unique wordsmithery
and a profound playfulness that thumbs its nose at a life of seriously hard knocks.

More information on the festival here: suoniperilpopolo.org.

“The Suoni Per Il Popolo Festival is a dynamic, community based leftfield music festival which takes every June in Montréal, Québec. It presents an eclectic collection of musical genres which includes but is not limited to free jazz, noise, electronica, turntable art, pop, soundscapes, experimental rock, twentieth century avant garde, electronica, musique actuelle and spoken word. Given the context in which much of this music is made and the reaction it provokes, it is also music that resonates with progressive social movements. The festival is committed to presenting both established musicians who bring a wealth of tradition, experience and history to their playing as well as younger, emerging artists.”

The Toronto based band, The Creeping Nobodies, have occupied innovative presence, after nearly 10 years together, members changing, touring and records, they’ve decided to disband.

In honor of this influential group, we’re offering an exclusive suite of unreleased + recent recordings. We’re really proud to put this release out & look forward to new music from the cherished people that comprised the Creeping Nobodies. Records are for listening to.

This release costs 5 dollars and includes a bonus track: EXULT single.

VVN presents the golden & now legendary, EP from Fort Collins’ The Cat The Mouse.
Niagara Falls Tape was recorded, as the title suggests, near to the NY & Canadian
border onto Rick’s 4 track cassette. Fredrick Burton III wrote these songs while living &
working in Niagara Falls during the coldest winter in 30 years. The falls froze still
that year for 37 minutes, 4:12am, February 17, 2009. This release features the
The Cat The Mouse members, KJ Johnson, Hugh Browder, and Jason Hogg.

This release costs 5$.

From Alien8:
“Family is broken-toy disco rock, served funky, like a big friendly bowl of sugary breakfast cereal. Upon a base of hearty synths and sweaty drums these tunes bubble with ’80s pop guitar licks and are bedazzled with meta-marshmallows of electronic drones and glitchy samples. This alt-dance exterior is a framework from which hang beautifully rhythmic vocals, either musing empathetically about high-school lovers and guilt-ridden bus rides or issuing vaguely strange missives about mysterious wizards and black champagne. The tone is sometimes sly, sometimes frantic but never menacing, ironic or fey. Sounds like LCD Sound System, Outkast, Blur, TV on the Radio, Cars and Quincy Jones-era Michael Jackson done in the ramshackle, outsider style of Public Enemy’s producers the Bomb Squad. Family is probably as influenced by cartoon theme songs and 8-bit video game music as the L.A. riots. Beyond its charming pop heart and playful nouveau-disco trimmings, Family can also serve as a floatation device in case of bad-vibes. Step into their rad imagination…”

ramona córdova is a project which was started in the fall of 2005 by ramón vicente alarcón:

i remember starting to play the guitar when i was 8 or 9 years old. i had a cheap guitar, that got passed down to my family, which looked like Marty McFly’s guitar, from Back To The Future. i used to just stand around trying to play like he did in the film.

i remember when i was 11, i started getting very interested in photography. this spawned from viewing links on blogs i had found through make out club, and live and candid photos i’d seen on photographer’s websites of the bands i loved. i was excited because the middle school i was about to attend had classes on photography. sadly, my family had to move again and i never had the outlet to properly learn anything about the medium.

i remember too when i was 11, how i first discovered the art of creative writing. i had a teacher named mr. hommel, and he loved to write and to read. he had us writing and reading all the time. it taught me how you can really get lost in this, in a great way, and how you can create something that otherwise wouldn’t exist in your world.

i remember when i was 13 or 14, and my family bought our first computer. eventually i saw beyond the video games and the Mayo Clinic Family Health Encyclopedia that the computer came with, and began to use e.mail for the first time to keep in touch with new friends from florida! this was a huge door to the world of possibilities in internet technology. better yet, eventually i started to make fake ID’s and imitation driver’s licenses on Window’s 95 – Paint Brush. in high school i took a graphic design class in which everyday we would go through the instruction book for adobe photoshop until we were at the book’s end.

then i remember getting caught up in bands that i had from the time i was 14 until i was 21. i had forgotten, or at least pushed aside, the ambition and motivation to do much else besides focusing on having great press photos, and getting the attention of managers, booking agents and labels.

i am so glad that today i am able to remember all that i truly love to do. and so, these days i am focusing on my creative passions in full. i hope that this will be evident in the things i plan to present in the near future.

BAHHHHHHHH!!! blah blah blah… fuck it! i’m a person!
