Wobblyhead is proud to present its long awaited sub-label Frank Wobbly & Sons. This new label is presented as a series of 7" vinyl records, with a total of six titles dropping two at a time in the first two months of 2004. Strictly limited to 250 copies worldwide without the possibility of repress, we recommend buying heavily, allowing at least two or three copies for yourselves. Best bet to get copies is to order from Groove Distribution (http://www.groovedis.com/) or Forced Exposure (http://www.forcedexposure.com/) or to stop by in person at Atomic Records in Milwaukee. Also, we're having a release party with six of the artists involved in the series at Onopa Brewing Company (http://www.onopabrewery.com/) in Milwaukee on Saturday, January 24th. As always, stay tuned to http://www.wobblyhead.com/ for more info. ----------------------------------------------- Release date: January 16, 2004 ...FEW-001 A. Casino Versus Japan "Silver and Gold" B. am-boy "64 Colors" Casino versus Japan returns with his first release since his massive album on Carpark, with the key track from protege am-boy's acclaimed debut on the flip. ...FEW-002 A. Signaldrift/Nudge "Nothing Much to Lose" B. Caural "The Girl with the Stained Glass Eyes" Signaldrift (Wobblyhead) and Nudge (OMCO, Tigerbeat6) got together to cover this standout from My Bloody Valentine's masterpiece Isn't Anything. On the flip, Caural (Chocolate Industries) creates his own gorgeous, heavily textured shoe-gazer world on this excellent original composition. ----------------------------------------------- Release date: January 30, 2004 ...FEW-003 A. Paul B. Davis "Enter the Mystical Faggot" B. Paul B. Davis "The Mystical Faggot Shops Organic" The enigmatic Paul B. Davis (8-Bit Construction Set) returns with an Atari, melodica, and organ freakout. His releases on his own Beige label were too few and far between for the heads at Wobblyhead, so we cajoled him to compose two more classically-trained cosmic crunk-funk masterpieces. ...FEW-004 A. Innerstance.Beatbox "I Am a Truck" B. Cash Bishop "Promise" Innerstance.Beatbox (Wobblyhead) and Cash Bishop both bring the kiddie records to the turntable breaks for these complementary sides. Downtempo master Innerstance.Beatbox (aka J.Todd) brings the same charisma and sense of humor that he brings to his Def Harmonic productions. Newcomer Cash Bishop responds with his first release on Wobblyhead, a churning melodic workout brimming with all the hope and pageantry that a sampled children's choir can muster. ----------------------------------------------- Release date: February 13, 2004 ...FEW-005 A. Magic Arrows "Yaphet Kotto" B. String Theory "Honey-top" Original Pele and Promise Ring member Scott Beschta returns with a heavy piece of downtempo drunk funk, very much in the vein of his Roommates project with Casino Versus Japan's Erik Kowalski. On the flip, SKAM sub-label SMAK veterans String Theory bring their dubbed-out, quiet beauty to the 7" format. ...FEW-006 A. Old Man Malcolm "Pride in My Product" B. Old Man Malcolm "Eye Contact" The turntablist for Garbage and Citizen King and long-time Anacron/Cornrows collaborator finally launches his stellar solo project. An indescribable yet flawless debut single from Malcolm, one of Kid Koalas favorite deejays (see the Big Daddy article to confirm). However, it's less about his turntable chops and more about releasing Malcolm's inner D'angelo. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
