Cities / Recording drums in LA
« on: April 09, 2011, 12:05:21 PM »
I'm looking for a chill house/studio in the LA area that I can record drums during mid-May.
I have a small budget for renting the space out.
Any suggestions?

« on: March 23, 2011, 08:24:24 PM »

Upcomings:

-Touring with This Heart Electric this summer along with a solo tour out to the West Coast.
- And 10" "Ether" EP on MASTERMIND RECORDS (EU LABEL) out SOON!

"Morals" Reviews:

Edition of 500 copies self-released private press LP from a Miami area weirdo who also plays in Electric Bunnies and Melted Sunglasses. The sound is psychedelic basement synth/guitar pop but with none of the austerity of the more cold-wave focussed groups. The drum machines are kind of ginchy and the guitars are straight out of the early Clean sound, specifically ?Getting Older?. Indeed, there?s such a great art-pop/edge of the world feel to this that in my brain it somehow slots in alongside Richard Youngs & Simon Wickham-Smith?s Ceausescu and The Clean?s Oddities comp as a perfectly realised blend of avant smarts and beautifully odd songs. There?s also a magical acoustic guitar and vocals cover of the mysterious ?Japan?, a track that both Pharaoh Sanders (on Tauhid w/Sonny Sharrock) and Albert Ayler (on some of the Euro ?66 dates) recorded gorgeous versions of. I dunno, this is such an ambitious record, devouring aspects of lucid free jazz, basement weirdo synth and motorik avant rock. We?ve been playing it pretty much non-stop at VT. An immaculate private press side. Highly recommended. -David Keenan (VT)

I could list you a bunch of reference points that might draw you to Teepee's excellent debut album (ahem....Residents, Scott Walker, Suicide, VU, etc.) but probably the best comparison is our man ?l-g - not because these guys sound the same, but because they draw from so many different areas and are able to wrap it up into one captivating, unique package. Call it modern psych if you will but only if you throw out the cliches and think of it in the literal sense of going beyond obvious mind traps.  Great record. -SS

Some of the most digestible jams we've heard yet from Eric Lopez-Zareno who aside from his one man meanderings as Teepee is also known to record with Electric Bunnies and Melted Sunglasses. The last few drops from the Teepee camp have been bogged down in drone coated molasses but this time Eric opts for the simplicity of synth-punk and scarred acoustic odes ground through a familiar lo-fi filter. Skittering along on dime store beats, taped together with noise and remnant guitar strings, Morals bashes a nice collection of dour seizures through the wringer of cheap recording and splays them out through cheap speakers. Definitely eking out a personality for himself on this longplayer and getting me more pumped for that HoZac single that's set to drop in the Hookup Klub later this year. Limited and put out on Lopez-Zareno's own label. Grab one while you can. -ravensingsthebluesblog

Here's an excellent debut release by a Miami artist/musician Jay Hines. I scored a copy of this at his show a few days ago and I was blown away by it and the show. Nags Head is his solo project and Diane Ream is a collaboration w/ his brother and friend. It's a mix of field recordings, drones, improv, & acoustic jams. Jay released this himself in a run of 150 copies. I'm helping him sell a few. Dig into more Miami wEiRdnEsSs.
