Various Artists : Breadfest 2013 Sampler [mam236]

“Here it is ya’ll – the first release in a series of digital samplers. These are my ‘Mouse Mixes’. Mine All Mine and I will be throwing a few of these together over the next few months in an effort to raise awareness of some of our favorite bands that you might not have caught wind of yet.

BREADFEST 2013 SAMPLER! Number one, baby. In case you didn’t know, we over here in Milwaukee caught wind of Mine All Mine’s Lost City Music Festival last year in Madison. Playing the festival was awesome, and it was an amazing experience hanging out for the rest of the weekend at all the other shows.

Back home in Milwaukee, everyone in BREADKING had always joked about doing our own fest. We figured, ‘Hell, everyone’s doing it’. So we set up our own music fest.

BREADFEST will be hosting some of our favorite bands for a two-day extravaganza throughout Milwaukee’s Riverwest community from June 29th to 30th. All age’s shows will be held both days of the fest at Cocoon Room and Jackpot Gallery. Both nights will end at a different local bar – Quarters and Stonefly Brewery.

We put together this sampler for your face melting pleasure. Scowler, one of my favorite Milwaukee bands start off the mix. Though the gang couldn’t make the fest, their singer Kyle Thomas Smith is opening Day 1 at Cocoon Room with a solo set before Moaded brings it with their intense live antics. Victor Shores plays after. Their song ‘No Name, Just Socks’ is the second track on the mix – probably one of the most played songs/tapes in my friends group ever. FACT.

Others tracks, like ‘2’ by Old Earth, showcase the fest’s sweet tooth for experimental jams, coming at you with a ten-minute Gibson SG jam. Local favorites like, Alta, Absolutely and Soul Low even drop a track from their earlier albums.

The sampler is just a taste of the bands that will playing BREADFEST, so join us on June 29 & 30th. Be apart of Milwaukee music scene. Lets hang out and fall over. Fun times!”

Holocaos & Projekt Gestalten : Ideias EP [TRANZ051]

Ideias is a collaborative project between Cauê Miranda (aka Holocaos) and Diego Garcia (aka Projekt Gestalten). The project started with an invite from Cauê to make a track with Diego for the producer’s forthcoming album. However, as both started exchanging loops and sounds, they realized that the material could result in many different versions, which ended up turning into an EP. The four versions are variations that features different rhythmic progressions, however, keeping some elements that appears, in one way or another, in all of them. The art design of the cover is also a collaboration between Cauê and Diego, making this project not only a sonic collaboration but a visual one as well.”
