I'm excited to finally announce that the Foxhole/The Magic Lantern/Soporus/Questions in Dialect 2xLP is ready to ship. The inserts have arrived and everything is looking sharp. These are ultra limited edition. We've only made 150 covers for the first batch. We'll make another 150 covers for the next round and that will probably be it.
We're getting psyched at the btv compound to go and see the Aqua Teen Hunger Force movie tonight. Oooooooh yeah!

The songs for the first 4 7" from Starflyer 59 for Ghosts of the Future are done and on their way to be cut to lacquers/plates. Things are right on track for the series and the songs are really good. You will not be disappointed.
There are a few updates to the Unwed Sailor dates in May/June on the touring page. We should have a bunch to add over the next couple of days.

Yndi Halda continues to rock the European continent. They'll be playing at the Rhaaa Lovely Festival tomorrow in Belgium with quite a few other instrumental and post rock bands. The Silent Ballet has compiled an mp3 compilation of bands featured at the festival if you want to take a listen. I was almost on a flight to deliver more LPs to them on tour, but wasn't able to get the tickets in time. So, more LPs should be delivered in time for dates in Spain.
Italy's 3/4HadBeenEliminated will be doing a one-sided LP soon. The band has two full-lengths, a self-titled debut on Bowindo and A Year of the Aural Gauge Operation on Hapna. 3/4HadBeenEliminated write songs out of improvisation and incorporate acoustic and electronic instruments with field recordings and effects to create an instrumental music with elements of drone, noise, and psychedelia. I've been loving both of their albums and am excited to hear what they will do for a one-sided LP.

The songs for the first four Starflyer 59 7" in the Ghosts of the Future are in the mail. They'll be getting mastered and plated shortly.
We're finalizing the insert for mewithoutyou brother, sister LP.
Also, Soporus is now an official member of the btv roster. It's Matthew and Willi$ from Saxon Shore and a cast of guest starring musicians at the moment and they've been working on a songs for an upcoming full-length.
Here's an article in Swedish about Do You Dream of Noise? I think it translates to Krister and his label are awesome.

Yndi Halda is on tour in Europe and should have copies of the 2xLP version of Enjoy Eternal Bliss available.

Yndi Halda Enjoy Eternal Bliss 2xLP will be out in retail stores on 1 May. Denison Witmer Safe Away 180g LPs will be out in retail stores tomorrow, 3 April.
Unwed Sailor will be on tour in June with Manchester Orchestra. I'll be adding a few of the confirmed dates to the website shortly.
Willi$, Chris, and Matt from HYMY Industries have finished the LP covers for the Foxhole/The Magic Lantern/Soporus/Questions in Dialect 2xLPs. You can see an image of the cover artwork on their front page. They've done multiple screen print pulls and letterpress runs for the design. The first batch is just 150 covers, so order right away.
It's opening day for baseball. We held the btv baseball league draft on Saturday night and are ready to go. And then tonight, I'm rooting for the midwest and Big10 in NCAA basketball.
