You can here a couple of clips from my short-lived band's (and only band to this date) first show here at this my space link that I can't believe is still up...

myspace.com/theperineals

Man, listening to this shit, I actually think I like it and could have stayed together... We just aren't really musicians and are too busy doing other things, and just don't naturally play well as a band consistantly.

CHOUT: Good sir, Has it been due time yet?

I have earlier stuff than this, but only on cassette. First recordings are from 1989, but these are the earliest I could find digitally. I have a lot of stuff from this era (early to mid 90s).

Salamander-
"Red Ampersand," spontaneous improv recorded to cassette 4 track with 1 mic, 1993:

Gentle Tasaday-
"Psychedelic Emergency," recorded in my parents' basement when I was house-sitting for them, summer 1992. This is me and my best friend to this day:

This was a LONG time ago.

Patience bro.

CHOUT: Are you signed to an indie label, or anything. 'Cuz I'm desperate to get my group heard to the public. Public meaning, record labels.
It seems to be that your group CHOUt, & Small white have a pretty good name for themselves. & I was wondering if you could do some promoting for my group. I know this seems silly, & desperate, but we are. We've been trying for years to get signed & nothing seems to work.
Any promoting you can do would be greatly appreciated. Thank You

No, I am by no means signed. Good Enough Records is my cd-r label that I 'release' mine and my friends' stuff on for fun, not profit. Chout is what I call my own 'one man band' (not solo!) recordings.

Small White are a relatively new band (still under a year old). Though I guess we are slowly making a name for ourselves, we aren't very popular outside of our friends and acquaintances. We just hope to improve our music/songs with time and practice, and if people dig it, that's awesome.
Our main motivation right now is to play shows and have fun, we never even talk about getting signed to a proper label. It's not even on the radar.

I don't know what I could do to promote your group that you can't do yourself (and as we've done for ours). Putting your music on Myspace is a good start, make a webpage (geocites is free), get shows, make flyers, send demos to labels, record stations etc.

marleypumpkin 03.27.2006 09:29 PM

I have been doing some of what you listed. Making flyers, sending demos to record labels. I just sent one to Smells Like Records through BadonGo, & the download file page says there's been like 8 downloads of my demo, but I'm just wishful thinking about that. Thanks for your advice. I will definetly go check out geocites.

i know i promised my metal intentioned, no wave sounding first recordings but things have been crazy and my computer freaked out when i tried to normalize the recording, so hang on until tomorrow, i'll upload 3 or 4 songs

marleypumpkin 03.28.2006 12:16 AM

I know how you feel. My computer freaks out everytime I upload a track off of a cd-rw. I don't know why it does that. It really pisses me off.

Everyneurotic 03.28.2006 12:17 AM

also, i need to download of your stuff, people

marleypumpkin 03.28.2006 12:32 AM

Just let us know what you think Everyneurotic. & if you have the time, please check out the 2 new tracks I posted. Thanks

hey alex 03.28.2006 02:21 AM

alright
Ihave two tracks here... the first is section of the first tape I recorded called the gooey tape becuz it was priorly home to a dub of goo. I recorded on a one-track recorder meant for interviewing people... in the hands of a 4 trak it becomes really cool sounding because you can play the A and B sides at the same time. I took a section of noise jamming and then the b-side (going backwards) is a song... but not a very good one, it works better going the other way.

-selection from gooey tape

the next is an actual song I did last year... it was on the first tape I made with my 4-track. Most of the stuff was aimless jamming and messing around, but this was a song... with some of said noise before it. Written before I went to college last year.

-at least for today

(try and) enjoi!

ps- i'll get around to listening to this thread soon... and yr new songs marley

marleypumpkin 03.28.2006 02:33 AM

I can't wait to hear what you think hey alex. I'm sorry I can't listen to your recordings. I would if I could. But, they do sound like interesting pieces.
