cb-004 “forget it” - don’t (cassette)

melancholy bedroom pop from michigan. “Throughout it all, forget it remains deeply compelling not only by the virtue of its choices but in large part to the purity of the music it offers. Nearly every track’s narrative is populated and defined by some type of longing and elevated by its instrumental explorations. There’s not a moment on forget it that feels anything less than overwhelmingly honest and it draws a considerable amount of power from its sincerity.” - Steven Spoerl, Heartbreaking Bravery clear green cassette tape in a full color o-card limited to 100 purchase: don’t visit: carousel breakfast on facebook don’t on facebook

Hello, it’s been quite a while since there’s been an update here. Here’s what’s been going on: • I’ve printed several books for the zinefest this August at the Trumbulplex in Detroit (date tba).  • Nesey and I are putting the finishing touches on a reissue of Wooden Whispers. The book has been reformatted to an 8.5x5.5 size, with additional poems not included in the original release. • If you enjoyed our release of Una Tuesday by El Hollín, I highly recommend you check out Dena's new project, Jenny Creep! • A few other projects are in the works, but they’ll remain secret for now.

More things soon!

cb-002 el hollín - una tuesday (cassette)

the follow up to “holey smokes” from athens, georgia sweethearts el hollín. black cassette tapes with full color artwork.

“[Una Tuesday] was recorded by Bob Hay (Squalls, Jolly Beggars) and mixed and mastered by Nesey Gallons. This is the first release by El Hollín since Holey Smokes (2013), itself an incredible statement of artistic dedication, and all signs show it to be another great outing from one of the most perfectly realized musical projects from Athens in the last decade.” - Gordon Lamb limited to 75 listen/purchase: el hollín carousel breakfast (coming soon) --- i admire the sincerity of dena’s songwriting so much, so it brings me great excitement to help share the latest release from el hollín! songs such as “and mock”, “marbles”, and “i wish” are amongst my favorites in el hollín’s catalogue.
