First off, we'd like to announce that we've switched our live page to a
(hopefully) less confusing format.... Instead of columns for the upcoming two
months we now have an individual bubble to click on for each artist. Just
pick the artist you want and viola, listings of all current dates! (that is
when are artists are good enough to update us with em :P)
Hopefully all Texans or international music industry types were able to catch
Stars As Eyes, Lesser, and Bevin Blectum at their SXSW showcases, and a
couple days later at an AMODA show....Gold Chains played the Kork Agency
showcase mainstage at Emo's. Anyone got pictures to send us of all this tb6
live action??? Bring em on.... There are great pics of Numbers with Crack and
Lo-Fi Neisans at a recent warehouse eviction party up at
http://www.wetgate.net/evictionparty.html
Paypal mailorder continues to be wonderful and speedy for mailorder and we
sincerely apologize for not getting it up sooner as it really is the best
right now and makes things so much easier (especially international orders).
Due to the success of this, we will keep our current special deal of one free
copy of either the freakbitchlickfly missy elliot cd or the wrong application
compilation with any orders over $30, or both for any orders over $50......
Big ups to our webmaster for sorting the paypal out when she did!

LESSER IS MORE, MUCH, MUCH MORE! And some other NEW RELEASES
For all those who have been eagerly anticipating the infamous lesser mp3
cdrom featuring no less than 10 hours of lesser tunage spanning the last
decade, we are happy to announce that we have gotten copies in and will be
offering it for mailorder now! An absolute steal at our normal full length cd
price; hopefully this will keep people from bootlegging it *too* badly seeing
as it's about the most easily bootleggable release ever.....
It plays in any PC or Macintosh, mp3 enabled walkman, cd or dvd player and
transfers real easily into something like an ipod or ay other mp3 player
since it is already encoded for you.....actual street release date is april...
there is also a new kid606 3" cdep titled "Why i love life" which will be
available for mailorder well in advance of actual street date; we will
announce when you can order it. It‚s quite ace and contains the best picked
tracks off a few cd-rs
left over from the soccergirl ep era, as well as newer material which has all
been
waiting for just the right time and format to be released in the perfect way.
Most of the material is of a more synthy ambient variety with a lot more
ambient guitars and melody than usually gets on a kid606 release....there
seems to be much more material like this floating around these days so i am
not sure why this is only a 3" but maybe all that other stuff I've been
hearing is for something else or just going to take 3 years to come out....
track listing is:
1. sad motherfucker part one
2. when i want something new
3. love it like you stole it
4. something's not right
5. longer
6. frenchkiss
7. sad motherfucker part two
(just for the record this contains most of what originally was to be a kid606
12" picture disc but is now cancelled, category number is the same)
erase errata/numbers split 3" cd!
meow047
we are super happy to release a split 3" cd between what are probably two of
the best bands in the bay area right now. track listing is:
numbers
1. goin' insane
2. palo alto
erase errata
3. retreat,the most familiar, extensive, I bet!
4. thief detests the criminal
numbers are a 3 piece consisting of drums, guitar, moog and vocals and we
would say they are an accurate blending of gang of four, adult, and add n to
x (without any of the negative hipster connotations that may imply;) but
overall they rock as hard as they are catchy and anyone who has seen there
live show can attest to how fun and energetic they are....
this will probably be the first or second numbers release available, they
have a split 12" with emergency on Archigramophone which is awesome and
limited to 500 copies but we arent sure when it will be out yet...
look forward for their debut cd on tigerbeat6 sometime in may when they will
be doing a full us tour with the coachwhips...
erase errata are great in too many words than we have time to write here
and have previous releases on troubleman unlimited and a website up at
http://www.eraseerrata.com for more info and live dates, opening up for le
tigre and chicks on speed as well as their own us tour in april....
Of course, we have more (much, much more) product to drop on the masses, so
check the catalog and mailorder pages of our website periodically to see
what‚s new and coming out!

Trouble is the leading provider of boredom-abatement solutions for San
Francisco's experimental music sector (predicted by Forgemaster Research to
be a $23.67 market by 2007). Faced with the increasing ossification of San
Francisco's dance music, puerile noise, and alternative rock scenes, Trouble
was formed with the sole purpose of attacking club-goer complacency. With
over 60 years of promotion experience behind it, the Trouble Conglomerate --
including Kid606 (Tigerbeat6), Kit Clayton and Sue Costabile (Orthlorng
Musork), Sutekh (Context), Gold Chains (Tigerbeat6), Jon Santos (Static,
CommonSpace), Uprock (Kelp and Circuits), Televasquez (Incomplet), and Philip
Sherburne (unaffiliated hack) -- promises a nightclub experience unlike its
competitors'
genre-strapped, tempo-bound, thump-thump rehashings. Instead Trouble offers a
wildly unpredictable mashup of BPMs, styles and instrumentation, where the
laptop lies down with the mic-stand, the ghost of funk-punk rumbles with
bastard breakbeats, and 808s meet the '80s: pure electro-frisson.
Trouble. Bringing the hassle since '02.
