15 tracks recorded and mixed by scott henderson scott bennet and Glenn ramage at Lap of Luxury in a labour of love over 2 years. Mastered in beautiful downtown Fernwood by Myke Hall. Graphic design put together by Adam at metropole from photos by sealion and comic drawings by Al. We did a poster insert. No mushrooms were harmed in the making of this product. We dropped on an old 85 track of mushrooms with Tim's incerdible bass solo and I did something very last year in ableton with a speech processor. Anyway the final print proofs were picked up today. 50 cds in the first run. That's it. Double the original cassette run, though Andy is going to do a different cassette mix as well.
lookin spiffy too. - Mon, 9 Sep 2013 11:04pm Edited: Mon, 9 Sep 2013 11:05pm

Its out. CD-R 15 tracks and a poster inside. $11 at Ditch, Talks Cheap and Cavity. There's a player copy at The Turntable. Cavity put up a few tracks on Youtube today. Recorded in Sooke, mixed in Sooke, mastered in downtown Fernwood designed with Adam at metropole and made a block from Chinatown, 100% local and weird as anything. And yes a new and an unheard old version of Mushrooms on it and some pretty surreal played live electronics. I also lined up as many speech talker languages as I could find for the headphone crowd. end mix. First edition is 50 copies, 12 gone already. Weird cassette edition to follow later. - Fri, 11 Oct 2013 7:02pm Edited: Fri, 11 Oct 2013 7:02pm

Ditch sold out. Staff said they liked it but had to play it when the store was closed. That's funny.

Andy at Cavity still has a few. - Thu, 22 May 2014 6:11pm
