I met with Matt and Justin from Aspera yesterday and heard two of the songs for their one-sided LP. The recording should be done in mid-June for a release in September sometime. AM/FM is also underway with their recording that should also be done in mid-June. Lenola has just committed to participating in the one-sided LP series. They’ve been writing many songs for their forthcoming full-length. This is really an exciting series for me and hopefully the bands involved. 16 May 2002 : Brooklyn, NY. Denison Witmer with John Vanderslice at Lillies. I’m listening to the re-issue of Danielson Famile’s A Prayer for Every Hour which is due for release by Secretly Canadian in the next month.

I’ve also been listening to Early Day Miners : Let Us Garlands Bring LP (Western Vinyl/Secretly Canadian) which sounds incredible on 180g vinyl and Yume Bitsu : The Golden Vessyl of Sound 2xLP (K Recs) which has an entire live show on the 4th side.

Tonight, my friend Colin and I trek to Carlisle, PA and relive a bit of bizarre rock history as we record and produce our friends in Dr. Egg. This fine lo-fi pop outfit became something of our cult favorites circa 1994/5 when cassettes still ruled supreme as the demo form. There should be a btv e-mail update sent out later in the day to explain our current rock status, but if you’ve been paying close attention to these entries, you’re pretty much up to date. Except that you probably don’t know that all american radio is back in action. After a hiatus due to a missing drummer, the band is back and ready to rock it hard. The new record will finally be released in the fall or so and there will be much touring. Denison continues to tweak his Philadelphia Songs. I’ve only heard bits and pieces, so I…
