This weekend we worked on printing out the CD Cases for the upcoming self-titled release by Victory and Good Hunting. Big thanks to Ben of Dejekt for letting us use his printing equipment. Most of the prints came out looking a lot like this:
We printed on materials from Stumptown Printers and they came out pretty nice.
I am excited to announce that we will be releasing the new (as of yet unnamed) Mild Stallions Debut CD. The recording is nearly complete. Recording is going well (in Lelkoland) and the songs are nearly complete. More news on the way as the band gets itself together. In other news, The “Victory and Good Hunting” CD should be available early in the new year.
I just put up a new video of Night Mechanic playing at Mississippi Studios in Portland Oregon. The song is called “White Rash”. Enjoy. And keep a look out for the new Full Length coming out soon.
It is now possible to buy CD’s online here at giftshoprecords.com. So you should go ahead and feel free to buy The Caps “Plastic Rings”. Also, Night Mechanic has been recording their debut CD at Jackpot Recording Studio here in Portland Oregon. Their CD should be available this winter and for purchase here at giftshoprecords.com.
Night Mechanic has a show coming up this sunday (10-14-2007) at Slabtown in Portland Oregon. The Wilamette Week had this to say about the show…
“Night Mechanic can jump from distortion-heavy, Pixies-esque quickies to progressive, moody and climactic anthems with the greatest of ease…”
You can read more on the calender section of the Wilamette Week’s Local Cut. They will also be playing with The Foxx and The Drunk Ladies.
More like Victory and Great Hunting. Victory and Good Hunting will be releasing their/his first album on Gift Shop Records. The music may be like some music you have heard before, but you haven’t heard it like this. With mixes of piano ballads and catchy banjo, Victory and Good Hunting is perfect ambiance. Eric Bandel of Brooklyn, NY is the brains behind this project, and the talent. We are extremely excited to release this indie meets classical (much more classical than indie) recording. Check out the myspace page at http://www.myspace.com/victoryandgoodhunting.
The Caps are having a EP/CD Release show at the towne lounge in portland oregon. Days and Soft Tags will both be playing as well, so this promises to be a good show. The band also has some fun new pictures that should be available to look at very soon.
The Plastic Rings EP by “The Caps” is now available at some local record stores in Portland Oregon. Soon it will be available for purchase here on giftshoprecords.com. As the site is being developed there will be more and more things available here. Also, we now have an account on youtube.com where we will be hosting videos for our bands. Our first video was filmed during the break at a band practice of The Caps and edited in 2 hours. More will be on the way, but for now, here is “Make A Wish” by The Caps.
Gift Shop Records is happening more and more each day. We have received the first pressing of “Plastic Rings” by The Caps. It’s looking good and should soon be available for sale here at giftshoprecords.com. In other news, the Portland, OR based band Night Mechanic will soon be recording a full length record for Gift Shop Records. This one promises to be a good one with jumpy beats and catchy staccato rhythms. Check out their myspace page (www.myspace.com/nightmechanic) for some mighty fine ear candy. Even more to come.
The Caps first E.P. (and also the first release from Gift Shop) is off to the presses and should be back in a week. This 4 song romp around pop extravaganza will soon be available through several avenues including Local record shops (Here in Portland, OR) and for sale over the interwebs (for non-Portlanders). It’s pretty Exciting. I’m Excited. And it sounds good too.
