the second Substack -exclusive- e.p.!
RAW from the pod #2 now available to paid subscribers .
RAW from the pod #2 is out, in an -in- way. Paid subscribers will soon receive an invite to the Bandcamp page featuring 18 tracks (and 8 videos) of our ridiculous vintage commercial re-creations and unsponsored ads. This is easily the most nonsensical release of my long nonsensical career! The amount of effort put into this project, spanning the last year, makes my eardrums ache. Assuming you RAW impressions listeners know what I’m referring to, this is, I think, the complete collection thus far. It surprised me how easily I lost track of what I had done.
My aim is to reproduce every commercial jingle that has spontaneously popped into my head over my conscious lifetime. In addition, Adelle wants me to do ‘unsponsored local ads’ and I am, of course, happy to take that on as well. The journey is just beginning.
Musically this is lo-fi 4-track cassette/digital hybrid madness most directly related to the first Sebadoh L.P. The Freed Man and my Sentridoh cassettes of the early 90s , minus the angst and masturbation references (although the Wrigley’s medley: Big Double Juicy, and Rub-A-Dub Dolly have a familiar whiff).
Again, if you are on the fence about becoming a paid subscriber and anything I just described sounds appealing, now’s the fuckin’ time to add your name to that invite list. You’ll automatically get an invite to RAW from the pod #1 and your pick of the other 11 or so self-releases on Bandcamp.
