shaky hands portland house show tomorrow

thao tonight in louisville, ky

so there you go...

To the Coast!

I am headed out early today for a short trip to the coast and I am ready! I have been uber stressed lately working on all the new records and need a little refresher. There's something kind of magical about it there, I always come back feeling a billion times better...until Monday!

lots of shows tonight with lots of krs/5rc bands past and present spread out across the usa...

if you are in portland, oregon you should go see the new bloods w/ explode into colors and yellow fever at dekum manor.
if you are in new york city you should obviously go to the free deerhoof show at prospect park because it's free and they're going to play songs from their excellent new album (you can also listen on a bunch of npr affiliates and online at wnyc.org, by the way) and then take the subway (or a few, i didn't look up online) to cake shop for the mae shi and imaad wasif show...
if you are in anacortes, wa for what the heck fest owl and the pussycat are playing a rare show... you remember them right? lois and greg moore?

Mika Miko touring next week!!

Vinyl Mastering / Timing Guidelines

I found this interesting since I do production...it is the time guidelines for vinyl mastering ( this is just one mastering house's perspective )...

Timing Guidelines:

Speed: 33 1/3 rpm

12” Single
10:00-12:00 = Great
12:00-14:00 = Good

12” LP
15:00-18:00 = Great
18:00-20:00 = Very Good
20:00-22:00 = Good
22:00-24:00 = Fair
Above 24:00 = If you insist.

7”
They don’t sound good but I’ll do it.
0:00-7:00 min

Speed: 45 rpm

12” Single
6:00-8:00 = Great
8:00-10:00 = Good

12” LP
12:00-15:00 = Great
15:00-18:00 = Good

7”
3:00-3:30 = Great
3:30-4:00 = Good
4:00-4:30 = Fair
4:30 & up = I’d rather cut it low at 45 than at 33 1/3.

Amazing Deerhoof video

I just found this on YouTube. Sooo good! It makes me wish I was going to New York to see them on Friday, I am a dummy...
