Baby steps

Just spoke to the son of the LEGEND.  There seems to be some interest which would be great.  I can't imagine that this man could be my first release.  Beyond expectations!  Keep checking back my friends.  I'll keep you informed.

A legend

I am suppose to have a phone call with someone that I can only call a LEGEND about a possible release on my DIY, upcoming label.  I hope we can work something out.  This could be spectacular!

The first release CONTINUES

Got an email from the band yesterday with some input.  Very cool to get an email with this name as who it is from.  It is kind of surreal.  He gave some some ideas about cover, how he'd love it to be a co-release with BURGER RECORDS, and some other formalities.  This is spectacular and can't happen fast enough if you ask me.

The first release!

Philthy Phonographic's (PHIL 001) first release is in motion.  I've been in talks with the infamous Burger Records to co-release it with me.  I think I'd like to do the first release as a one-sided flexi-disc with a color cover.  I love flexis, but am always disappointed they don't have a cover to go with them.  Since this is my baby, I get to do what I want.  I'm thinking a hand-numbered limited edition of 250 black flexis.  I have a band that has already sent me songs, but that is still a secret.  Sorry.  I will let you know that they are mono alternate versions from their debut album, which is SPECTACULAR and out of print despite being repressed 4 and 5 times.  I am very excited about this and will keep you informed and we get closer to pre-order.

Record Label in the making

Philthy Phonographic is a DIY record label.  I am a one man show who loves music and wants to put out music I love.  I am currently in talks with a bunch of different bands and am going to release something real soon.  Keep your eyes peeled.

Musical and record label interests:  My boys at Burger Records are the best, I love Jeff the Brotherhood and Bob, Ale, and the gang at Infinity Cat records, Detroit greats Italy and Cass Records are awesome, Castle Face puts out beautiful vinyl and there flexi-disc books are unique, Third Man Records knows their stuff... I just wish I could get more of it, Grimtale is cool (please send me an Ultras S/C)

Loving everything Ty Segall is doing, Castle Face's Velvet Underground tribute album is spectacular, King Tuff is truly the King (and every band he's in is as well), Jay Reatard, Jeff the Brotherhood KICK ASS! and use up much of my turntable time, love the sound of the Dum Dum Girls, I'm the original Nobunny fan, Black Lips are my favorite, the Gories, the Dirtbombs, JAILL, Gentleman Jesse, Audacity, love the sound of the Black Keys, anything affiliated with Jack White, Heavy Cream, Thee Oh Sees, Gap Dream, Detroit Cobras ROCK!, the Black Godfather Andre Williams, the Go, Conspiracy of Owls, BBQ, Natural Child, the Greenhornes, Peach Kelli Pop (she is so good), REIGNING SOUND (their album ABDICATION shouldn't ever fly under the radar), Soledad Brothers, thee makeout party, mikal cronin, i'm tired of typing and boy could this go on forever...

hope this just gives you a bit of an idea about the kind of music I'm looking to put out.
