Three new records available Tuesday, October 28th!

Caithlin De Marrais is releasing her impossibly intimate, beautiful love letter to your very heart– her first full-length album My Magic City. Recorded in a cottage, an apartment, and a fire-ravaged church in Brooklyn, it was produced together by Rainer Maria’s Kyle Fischer and Rocketship Park’s Josh Kaufman, and mixed to perfection by Dave Schiffman (Johnny Cash, Mars Volta, etc). Eleven magic songs.

Our favorite costumed supergroup Fred & Daily are letting loose their shredtastic, uproarious, and imminently danceable full-length album Hypocrite Ballet upon the world. Containing hardly a half-second of silence, it perfectly fills that aching gap in between the Talking Heads and Hedwig. Physicists are still struggling to explain where it comes from–we’re not telling.

Ne’er Do Evers‘ hyperbolic, brilliantly self-aware magnum opus, 100% Wrong, will also be available for public consumption. Equal parts Dinosaur, Frank Black, scuff marks, coffee and a beer, this record plays like a 30-minute Zen koan at 120db, refuting all logic. We wish it was a double-album, so we use the “repeat all” function in our media players. We suggest you do the same.

In a sense, Black Milk is the reason I moved to New York. Catch me on the corner some time and I’ll explain what that means. But all cryptography aside, Kyle Fischer’s latest record is out in the world now, and man is it a good one. Get it!

On Thursday, March 20th, the fifth anniversary of the invasion of Iraq, Balthrop, Alabama will release a digital download of their new single, God Loves My Country. The song asks the question: “Does God bless America, or any country or people over all others? Does God condone the violence enacted by one nation against another?”
Those who download the song will be encouraged to make a donation in support of the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America.
To be notified when the download is available, join the Balthrop, Alabama mailing list.

Some food for thought: Ars.Technica provides a review of Amie Street’s popularity-based pricing structure. Tracks start off as free downloads; the more they’re downloaded, the higher the price gets, until they reach a cap of 98¢. Interesting model.

Read the The New York Times article on End Up’s Pascal and Bernie.
Terrific art all over their apartment by Paul Wilm–one of our Alabama collaborators–and even a little Rudy Giuliani portrait peeking out by Marshall Weber of the Booklyn book arts collective.

You may not have known this, but when an AM or FM station plays your favorite band’s song, the band doesn’t get paid. For decades, AM and FM broadcasters have enjoyed an exemption from current copyright law which requires satellite radio, cable radio channels, Internet webcasts, and other broadcasters to pay a royalty for the use of music. Of all the ways we listen to music, big radio is the only one that receives special treatment in this regard.
The ‘Performance Rights Act’ — introduced by Senators Patrick Leahy (D-VT) and Orrin Hatch (R-UT) and Representatives Howard Berman (D-CA) and Darrell Issa (R-CA) — would correct a loophole in the copyright law by removing the broadcaster exemption to assure that all platforms are treated equally and pay a performance royalty to artists.
