I run a new label that has started releasing cassettes and soon 7 inch vinyl.  I am moved by a deep love of dub and reggae.  All you low bit soldiers must know how the 8 bit square wave can rattle the rafters with massive bass, so let's hear it!  I will put it in podcasts, throw it into DJ sets, promote, distribute and make sick hard-goods packages to send around the world!

Artists to keep in mind:  Quatra330, Tapes & Zomby

Deep roots dub!

LET ME HEAR IT!

TONIGHT!!! FREE! ALL AGES!

May 30 - open mixer with Plain Flavored (local chiptune producer) link: http://soundcloud.com/plain-flavored

Facebook post - http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=106110716146316

Battery Powered Music started as a series of inspired conversations, late night jam sessions, and months of headphone composition and production.  Local chef and secret electronic music mad scientist, Jesse Garcia, Elias Foley and an evolving cast of engineers, players, technicians and producers took these ideas and have been expanding upon them using ensemble based improvisation and collaborative development.  Now entering our third month at Backspace.  For questions or info contact 503-504-2899 or [email protected].

The evening is a battery powered music ensemble jam with an open mixer (like and open mic for battery powered music producers).  The "jam" is drum circle v2.0, the atmosphere is inclusive, fun and inviting (and at times and epic mass of grinding handheld techno).  Certain nights will feature solo artists and/or smaller groups but it is all within the context of an open space of structured improvisation and collaboration.  I will be recording and podcasting highlights from the nights on a regular basis, too.

Tamarack Music first tape release comes in a high quality Brad pack from Stumptown Printers, printed by HEATWAVE Press, with cover design by Elias Foley. Packed with Dub tinged chip-tune, deep 8 bit acid, and deep space battery powered drones; this album represents 2 years of experimentation, headphone composition and improvised musical play. We are excited to share it all with you.

I'm pretty sure he just means a way of differentiating and listing releases, like you would notice 8 bit peoples numbers with 8BP000, 8BP001, or calm down kidder records would do CDK001, CDK002.

It's a fast way to identify what label it came from, when it was released and even if someone has missed the last few releases and can go back through and catch up on missed numbers.

OK ok! I am a slacker, I will get on it so folks can dig the progression or digression of the releases through time.  BTW.  I am looking for more folks making chip based dub, reggae, bass music, "chipstep" (thanks 486) and skweee (I am personally over the breakcore).  Peep me to your shit!

After reading your post Battery Powered Music, I looked up the U create.  It looks pretty cool. Should I get it? You seem to think highly of it... would you wanna go more in depth, or is it basically just a fun to use toy/tool?

At what price do you think it's worth? 30-50 bucks?

It's the poor man's miniKP.  Like 10ish effects from incredibly destructive to quite lush plus a X2 looper that samples incoming audio & tap tempo.  It needs to be hacked so you can load your own samples onto it.  I would love to see this happen.  As it is out of the box, most of it's features are cheesy canned crap, but the above mentioned effects, looper and tap tempo are great.  If one could hack the software so you could fill the sample banks (there are 12 more) with your own samples...LOOK THE FUCK OUT!

Don't spend more than $40

Does the label release music with catalogue IDs?

No.  I would like to know more about this.  I assume you are referring to catalogue IDs in relation to APIs.  Any info or links to help push me forward on this?  From what I gather it would help create cohesive connections between the label and it's songs as they are featured in playlists around the net and on apps.

I get it gentlemen, school of hard knocks for the newb.  Please check your trolls now, OK?  I just figured out I could edit my past posts.
