Release Schedule Coming into Focus? /// March 16, 2004 12:30 AM /// dispatch from Chris!
Hey! Our release schedule is coming into focus. Tonight, Bob and I went out to dinner with Evan and David of the Pathways and discussed plans for the upcoming Pathways releases. We agreed that the REC003 7" will come out in May with the songs "Productivity", "You've Got To Look Inside Yourself" and, most likely, "Bruchstück Eins". The exciting news is that that release willl be followed by either an EP or a full-length Pathways release in August or September. Evan and David slipped us a CD with some of the new recordings and they sound super-tacular. (Feel like adding your two cents as to which we should release? Skip on over to the message board.)
With the Pathways situation fairly set, we can now announce a July release date for the second Daggerhearts record, the Ugly Girl 7" EP. What?!?! TWO forthcoming Daggerhearts EPs? Yes, folks, it's true. Check out the socialis m section for tracks from both of those releases. Wooo!! Last but not least, the as-yet-unannounced 4th RiYL release, REC004, will probably be out in June. Though the exact contents of the release haven't been set in stone, we promise it'll be a doozy.
In some less-than-stellar news, the release date for REC001 has again been pushed back, due to the difficulty (and cost!) of silk-screening the covers. We've decided to scrap that plan and so we're now back to the design phase, since we've got to re-adjust certain things for offset printing. That said, we hope to make those available as early as March 23rd and no later than March 30th. The RiYL FunPak, or REC000, has also been pushed back, but only because we'll now be including even more great music (including new contributions from Moses Gunn, Glitter Pals and Yoko Kikuchi, among others). Cool! I guess that's all for now?
love,
Chris
