it's way better than i thought it would be, and i went in expecting a decent, solid release.

xp that Glass album is great, thanks. Yep, total This Heat bait, but somehow not derivative, I get like vibes of The Ex and Dog Faced Hermans as well.

Somewhat terrifyingly I have prepared an album of the old space blerps for release on Bandcamp today. It does costs money but not much, or if you want a dl code just ask!

Sounds really good, Noel!
First track is very much my bag, bubbling and spacy - will listen properly to the whole thing tomorrow when I'm not trying to round up a few more bandcamp purchases and go to bed before 1am (oops, that was 15 minutes ago).
(aagh, I've already spent more money than I told myself I should and I haven't even checked my ever-growing wishlist yet. better go to bed...)

Debuting in 1988 as a self-released 8xCassette boxset. Chapter Eleven collects the solo recordings (1976 - 1987) from one of the earliest members of the US Industrial Noise scene, coalescing a wide swath of influences and culling experimental techniques into inventive new terrain. Carefully remastered from the original tapes, this deluxe reissue is a long-awaited rescue from obscurity.

I don't know if it's necessarily "awesome," but I do think it has a melancholic beauty to it--I put an album of improvised multi-layered acoustic music (and experimental electronic reconstructions of same) that I did when I was 20 up on Bandcamp. The more important thing is any money folks pay for it is being doubled and donated to bail funds, mutual aid funds, and social justice and civil rights funds:
Thank you, everyone who has picked up my album at Bandcamp--just donated $450 from $225 in album purchases! I'll continue to donate whatever folks pay, and double it--pass it on!https://t.co/xY4zZ2L7fH— Musicophilia (@musicophiliamix) November 9, 2020

xpostRobert Turman's Flux got a lot of attention when it was reissued in the 2010ish period. I know it came out on Spectrum Spools eventually but I remember a separate reissue in the years beforehand doing the rounds on Volcanic Tongue etc

is it normal for a band / label not to automatically combine shipping? i'm trying to order three tapes from a label and bandcamp is trying to charge me $12 for shipping. i hate this!

And I think that's standard with shipping on Bandcamp, budo. I don't think the setup is sophisticated enough to automatically combine shipping although I haven't looked at it recently.
― spectralist brostep (Noel Emits), Monday, 1 February 2021 18:36 (three years ago) link
idk about that, I'm pretty sure I've lowered per-unit shipping by buying a few things from one label
― rob, Monday, 1 February 2021 18:41 (three years ago) link
I did order something from a Swiss record store a while back (via Amazon) and they deliberately sent both items separately, so there might some kind of customs reason?
― rob, Monday, 1 February 2021 18:42 (three years ago) link
this is an american label and i'm in USA so not a customs thing –– luckily there was a way to email the label and so we just dealt with it via paypal. i think this might have something to do with what they call a "fan account" vs. an account you use to host your own music (or no music at all, in my case). also my own incompetence is probably at play if i'm being fair. like bandcamp will regularly stop me from streaming records that i've alreay paid for, ON bandcamp. because according to them i don't "own them" ... whatever!
― budo jeru, Monday, 1 February 2021 18:46 (three years ago) link
what cha'll got for bandcamp friday?
so far, i'm checking for the jazzgalaktik single that came out in december. nujazz, midtempo house vibes.
am open to recs.

also i know i've plugged it here before, but if you want some seriously great introspective streetwise chicago hiphop, i can't recommend waldorf and statler enough. they have all their stuff set to free, but you can throw them a fiver if you feel so compelled.
semi-related, you can get the entire windimoto music catalogue (of which the dvs solo album is part of) digitally for less than $20. all chicago peeps, with an assist from detroit.
