Vinyl update

Update #9 · Jul 18, 2012 · comment

Couple quick updates to the CR200 compilation. The vinyl had some mastering issues at the pressing plant, but those have been remedied by the great James Plotkin (look him up!). So the pressing plant has done their initial master cuts, and will be making test pressings in the coming weeks. The compilation is looking to be a late August / early September release. 

The cassette box set part of the release is nearly complete, with all of the packaging done and with just some dup'ing to be completed. 

Posters started going out 2 weeks ago and another batch, along with t-shirts for those special contributors, will be going out in the next week+.

A big release show is currently being planned for September. Stay tuned for more details, dates, etc.

Thanks!

Joe

Pressing times

Update #8 · Jun 10, 2012 · comment

I spoke too soon in my last update. I got word from the pressing plant today that the records won't likely be ready before early August. Summertime is super busy for them, as labels get ready for the fall rush of pushing out new records.  

In the meantime, i'm going to be sending out postcards, posters, and tshirts to the appropriate backers. For local Rochester folks, i'll get in touch about delivering them in person to save on postage.

LP is mastered!

Update #7 · Jun 8, 2012 · comment

The LP material is now mastered and ready to send to the pressing plant (happening this weekend). The cover artwork is also ready to submit to the plant. Very existing stuff. 2 of the 4 cassettes are dup'd (thanks to the ever gracious Cory and Jen of cae-sur-a.com

Should still be on track for a July release, with a possible release party here in Rochester NY. Details will follow...

Shirts are printed and tracks are nearly all in

Update #6 · Apr 17, 2012 · comment

Printed the shirts last night. I think they came out great. (Note: The orange one is for my son Leo. Its his favorite color.)

Almost all of the tracks are in for the compilation LP and cassettes. Just waiting on a few (uh, including some of my projects.... : )  Still planning to have the LP material ready for the pressing plant by the end of this month, so it should still be on track for a late May release. 

The cassettes have been ordered and should arrive here on Thursday. The fine folks (Cory and Jen) over at cae-sur-a (http://www.cae-sur-a.com/) are duping the cassettes for me. A huge thanks to them!
