Hello world!
I don't know about where you live, but here in SF it is sunny and warm, and I couldn't think of a better time to drop the new DNTs. Info is below, and paypal buttons are on the website. These are ready to be shipped, but the first shipment will occur next Thursday. This is due to a few minor issues with transportation, but has nothing to do with the releases themselves, they are completely done and ready to go out to the world.

Get in touch for wholesale rates!

Expect a proper summertime batch in the coming months, and also a brand-new website! It's looking absolutely great so far, we're just putting the final touches on it.

Best,
Tynan

 

DNT065 - Edibles "Other Minds meet Inner Space" LP $13/$15ppd US/Canada
Hot off the dub plate and drenched in analog syrup comes the debut full length LP by Portland, OR trance boogie band Edibles. Founded by Dewey Mahood (Eternal Tapestry, Plankton Wat, etc) in 2009, the album picks up where 2010's twin tapes for Not Not Fun and Stunned left off, but doubles the funk with the addition of Dusty 'Beats' Dybvig (Brass Clouds) on live drums and mystic synth. Album opener "Rad Trip" starts like a Sun City Girls ritual seance before blazing into some brown acid Hendrix theatrics. Live set staple "Mind Fry" brings the classic Edibles recipe of dubby bass loop with stream of consciousness guitar and patented fog-chant vocals. "Skyway" and "Parachute Jumpin" add guest collaborator Ben Bogard aka DJ Rumtrigger (and Sonic Lozenge boss) on 70's vintage drum machine and monophonic synth pulses. Goner dub jam "Midnight Movie" comes off like Les Rallizes Denudes getting in the zone at King Tubby's. "Dune Buggy" hits the WARM JETS trail with some catchy pop hooks wrapped in classic electronic meltdown. Album closer "Future Life Dub" sounds like it was transported from the BLACK ARK circa SUPER APE, all roots groove and shamanistic flute song. 10 songs of chill funk and cosmic bliss record at The Owl House, caputured on black wax, and housed in Kickin' It At The Temples Of The Moon cover collage by Dewmah. Edition of 500.

DNT054 - Jovontaes "The Thief of Baghdad" cassette $6/$7/$10 US/Canada/World
Named after 90s street skater Jovontae Turner, Jovontaes are a group of kids from the Lexington, KY community, tearing up both the psych and skateboarding scenes. Not doing what you’d expect from a bunch of skaters, these dudes are making caveman psych rock (with hints of surf and kraut) like a scaled down Eternal Tapestry yet still sounding way weirder than the standard psych-jam band trying to live in the past of the 60s. Not too detached from last year’s rad tape on Eggy, on this one you get almost 50 minutes of songs, closing out the second side with a sprawling free-form musique-concrete jam piece. Recorded late 2010 in their Void Skateshop, (which apparently is right around the corner from Caboladies’ old recording space). Hand-numbered edition of 100 pro-dubbed clear tapes (with a lil’ skatebuddy imprinting) and absolutely stunning full-color psychedelic artwork by the equally beautiful young artist Camille Bryant. (Large posters of the cover art available for sale upon request)
