SUPPORT LETHA RODMAN MELCHIOR IN HER FIGHT AGAINST CANCER. DONATE HERE.
This year’s third Three Lobed Recordings / WXDU co-produced Day Show during the Hopscotch Music Festival was an embarrassment of riches once again, featuring a number of one-time-only collaborations. But perhaps nothing was more hotly anticipated than the brief spring into existence of the Little Black Egg Big Band, named after Georgia Hubley’s solo guitar project Little Black Egg, which she has performed only rarely: guitar luminaries Steve Gunn and William Tyler together with Hubley, Ira Kaplan and James McNew of Yo La Tengo. Letha Rodman Melchior also provided the pre-recorded material that was mixed and manipulated into the live recording.
Hubley, Kaplan and McNew’s participation in this event was brought about in part by their desire to support Melchior, a friend and fellow musician who hoped to join for the day show but was physically unable. Melchior, who has played music under her own name as well as under the alias Tretetam, and in the band Ruby Falls, was diagnosed with stage IV melanoma in 2010, which she has documented on a personal blog. Melchior’s illness has produced considerable financial hardship for her and husband Dan Melchior in addition to the agony of her cancer. An effort to offer further support to Melchior is also the reason why we are honored to offer this performance to the wider world today.
What the fans in the room at King’s in Raleigh saw at the show (along with those who heard it on the stream by Duke University’s WXDU) were five masterful musicians collaborating in real time on an at-times brooding, but oddly hopeful soundscape. Instead of soloing all over each other, each artist blended into a whole that spoke with one voice. Over its nearly forty minutes, the piece gains on itself in increments, with the bed of guitars and Melchior’s pre-recorded effects manipulated by McNew, a technique familiar to anyone who has seen him perform as Dump.
The piece honored Melchior as well as the spirit of the entire event, which celebrated the power of experimental music, the validity of independent labels and college radio, artist-run venues like King’s, and the ever-present, unquenchable thirst that the best artists have to evolve, change, and create. Three Lobed has a fan base primed to understand that this particular grouping probably wouldn’t be playing YLT classics like “Big Day Coming” with a bunch of extra guitars added in. What was expected, and what was received, was a unique offering that could exist only in this single moment. It was a performance for the benefit of people who believe the best artists never stop taking chances and are as generous with the product of their minds as they are with their time. People like the ones sitting on that stage.
This recording was made with Schoeps MK4V microphones in the center of the stage, combined with a stereo soundboard feed by the King’s staff. Because this download is offered for donation only, we are not streaming it, but you can trust me that the quality has been approved by the artists and is excellent. We are deeply grateful to all of the five artists involved for playing this show and for giving us the opportunity to help benefit Melchior and share this music with the wider world.
Thanks to Cory Rayborn, Ross Grady, Kelly Davis (and everyone else at WXDU), Paul Siler of King’s Barcade, Ira Kaplan, Georgia Hubley, James McNew, Steve Gunn and William Tyler for making this possible.
TO OBTAIN THE RECORDING
1. Donate at least the suggested minimum donation of five U.S. Dollars ($5) to Letha Rodman Melchior’s GiveForward page.
2. Once the donation is made, the page will send you a receipt.
3. Forward that receipt to this email address.
4. You will automatically receive an e-mail link to the download as well as a code to unlock it. The download will be a single ZIP file containing FLAC, MP3 and Apple Lossless files of the set.
We hate to even have to say this, but at the band’s wishes, this recording is being offered for charity only. Please do not bum the artists or us out by doing anything to get around that. This recording will only be available for one week, so if you are interested, get to it.

As ever, I am unable to torrent, so feel free to put this up on Dime or other torrent sites

pretty short set (or mp3?)

Ooops, for some reason my first try resulted in files with no sound. Second try verified, post is fixed. Flac always and forever (or until something better comes along)! Seven tunes, including two medleys, each tune around ten minutes or so. Drone out!

Well, Neil Young chose FLAC (24/192, mind you) for his Pono "ecosystem", so... FLAC it is! :D

Uploaded that Earth show to Dime for you biped.

Awesomeness, a few more from the backlog coming as I work my way through them...

I've been working on a new site to host my recording list over the last while and its finally live. I wanted to replace the old db.etree set up as that's no long being updated these days (which is a pity really) and I wanted something a bit fancier than just having a text page with the titles of the shows. Each entry for a recording has it's own page for whatever metadata you want (just like etree) but since I run it I can add whatever I want.

There are currently 1,100+ recordings in the collection dating from 1966 up to right now and covering all genres though it’s mostly the kind of stuff I post to the blog (noise, drone, metal, punk, hardcore etc). You can use the letters at the top of the list to look for bands you may be interested in. The vast bulk of the collection are FLAC audio recordings (there’s about 100 videos) so if there’s anything there on the list that takes your fancy just send me an email and I’ll upload it to the blog. If you’re a trader and want to set up a large/bulk trade then feel free to contact me too.
