Si en parte tienes razón, pero son peña con gustos muy extensos. De hecho eso se nota en la cantidad de "sellos hermanos" o de proyectos personales de peña que curra ahí (Vampisoul, Vinilíssimo, Bang! Records, Electro Harmonix, Alehop!, Beat Generation,…)

SWN presents Tony Da Gatorra vs Gruff Rhys
Thursday 29th July
Clwb Ifor Bach
7.30pm-11.00pm
Tickets £12 adv exclusively from http://www.wegottickets.com/event/77137
Tony Da Gatorra and Gruff Rhys are proud to announce their forthcoming collaborative album, The Terror Of Cosmic Loneliness. This musically unorthodox, experimental record will receive a limited release in July. Tony and Gruff will also perform a handful of live shows to coincide with the album’s release, including a debut UK date at Cardiff’s Clwb Ifor Bach on 29th July, and the Field Day festival in London on 31st July.
Tony Da Gatorra is a Brazilian TV and VCR repairman, musical freedom fighter and the inventor of his own unique ‘Gatorra’ instrument. Part drum machine, part guitar, the Gatorra provides the unique sonic style of Tony’s peace-loving protest songs and features heavily throughout The Terror Of Cosmic Loneliness.
As a massive fan of Tony, Gruff set about tracking down the cult hero during his travels throughout South America (an adventure that also lead to road trip movie, Separado!).
Having finally met, the pair undertook their first gig together and promptly booked in to a Sao Paulo recording studio to begin rehearsals…
Gruff takes up the story: We spent 5 days rehearsing a set of songs to play live at the venue – our only shared language was music itself so there was no small talk, just intense concentration on the music. On the final day, as the rehearsals had been so productive, we hooked up some recording equipment and took about 5 hours out to make this record.
We recorded several live takes of each song then chose the best versions. I added a harmony vocal overdub on two songs, otherwise it’s pretty much what we recorded at the time. Upon returning to Cardiff I took the songs to producer Kris Jenkins’s studio whose excitement for the album and general encouragement was infectious – then we called in noise legend Sir Doufus Styles to oversee the final mix.
Armed with 5 flasks of strong coffee, 75 sticks of gum and a bank of vintage compressors we mixed The Terror Of Cosmic Loneliness at extremely loud volume in one epic 12 hour session.
Tony Da Gatorra adds: Hello, peace my brothers, this record was made with lots of feelings and true love to bring consciousness and show a little bit of truth that needs to be said without hypocrisy. We are creatures of God, so there's no death. Spirit is light, all evil won't prevail – there's no evil when it crashes with goodwill.
The Terror Of Cosmic Loneliness will be released on 26th July via OVNI / Turnstile Music.no es la primera vez que colaboran juntos y os dejo un link de una de esas colaboraciones donde se escucha este instrumento "Gatorra"

Mondo Cane album
The ever-eccentric Mike Patton has set a release date for his new musical endeavour, Mondo Cane.
The brainchild of Patton (Faith No More, Fantomas et al.), and featuring a fusion of Italian language meets rock and orchestra, ‘Mondo Cane’ is set for release on May 4 through Ipecac Recordings.
Patton worked with a 30-piece orchestra and choir to form what is now the Mondo Cane sound. Consistent with his previous work, the music is definitely unusual but nevertheless interesting.

Selasi ai.
-
Hombre, aleluya. Llevo dos años escuchando el dichoso bootleg de Amsterdam. Por fin un proyecto decente del Patton en mucho tiempo. Porque lo de Peeping Tom tiene delito…
-
Jodeeer que de puta madre lo de Mondo Cane. Ya de paso se podría fichar a Patton con este proyecto en el auditori para el PS11.
La verdad es que el Peeping Tom sí que fue algo flojuno…
-
joder, cómo sonaría Patton en el auditori, me pongo de pensarlo.
-
Hace un par de años un promotor me pidió unas grabaciones piratas porque Patton le había ofrecido traer el proyecto a Barcelona, pero la cosa no cuajó, probablemente por cuestiones de pasta. Lástima, porque en directo tiene que dar gustito.
-
a mí lo de mondo cane me hace gracia, pero lo que me molaría sería la big band melvins/fantomas. el video del concierto de londres que sacó ipecac el año pasado era tremends.
por cierto, zu también tienen pendiente sacar un ep con él.

Sobre Ariel Pink (su nuevo lp, gira europea, etc..). De la web de 4AD:
_With the infectious tones of "Round and Round" still causing a stir online, Los Angeles' Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti have confirmed details of their debut album for 4AD. Entitled Before Today, the record consists of twelve tracks (including the aforementioned single "Round And Round") and will be released worldwide on June 8th 2010 on CD, LP and digital formats.
Six months in the making, Before Today was recorded in part in Encino at the House of Blues (once Tito Jackson's home studio) with Sunny Levine (Quincy Jones' grandson) and Rik Pekkonen (Bill Withers, Seals & Crofts, Bread) as well as at the band's home studios. The result is a beguiling mix of glam rock, West Coast funk and Merseybeat harmonies with a high-production sheen; a contrast to the corroded bedroom recordings that have fomented a fervent cult following over the past decade.
The outfit, now consisting reclusive pop surrealist Ariel Pink (vocals) alongside Tim Koh (bass/vocals), Kenny Gilmore (guitar/vocals) and Aaron Sperske (drums/vocals) will tour Europe this summer (details to follow) and have confirmed a headlining show at New York City's Mercury Lounge on May 4th (tickets available HERE).
Before Today cover art conceived by Douglas Lee.
Prior to the album, Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti will release "Round And Round" (backed with "Mistaken Wedding") as a limited edition 7" and digital download single on April 26th. Fans can hear "Round And Round" on 4AD.com and new subscribers to the band's mailing list can also download the track as a free MP3_

…Amanda Palmer nos informa de que ya no está con Roadrunner records,nos dá el link para bajarse una canción y postea una foto despeloá que envió a la compañia, para terminar
_dear The World,
i am very happy to announce today that i have finally been released from my contract with roadrunner records. Postea un link para bajarse una nueva canción y una foto despelotà para terminar
as many of you know, i’ve been fighting very, very hard to get off the label for the better part of two years.
for the past seven years, anything i have written and recorded (solo or with my band, The Dresden Dolls) has technically been owned and under the ultimate control of the label, but no longer.
after endless legal bullshit, it’s over, i’ve been DROPPED, RELEASED, LET GO, whatever you wanna call it. in other words: i am FREE AT LAST!!!!!! RAAHH!!
.
.
.
.
.
i wrote this song a few months ago, and didn’t know it would be used for this purpose, but it’s pretty perfect.
nobody had heard it up until a few days ago except for neil gaiman (my man) and tom dickins (my dear australian friend)…i played it for them in my house right after i wrote it.
they liked it, so i’m gonna give it to you…BECAUSE I CAN. (can you visualize me doing my happy crack dance as i write this??)
.
.
this whole exercise may not seem like a big deal to you (artists put up music for free all the time), but for years i have not legally been allowed to put a song on a website and say: I JUST DID THIS, GO DOWNLOAD IT. it’s been illegal. i am so happy i can finally make music and just GIVE IT AWAY.SO GO TAKE IT, PLEASE.
the recording (and lyrics and photos from the session are) is DOWNLOADABLE HERE: http://www.amandapalmer.net/thetruth/
the song is called
“DO YOU SWEAR TO TELL THE TRUTH THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH SO HELP YOUR BLACK ASS”.
before any of you get up in arms about the title (peoples gettin’ mighty sensitive lately) please know:
the title is a reference to a lyric in a song called “fuck tha police” by a band called Niggaz With Attitude. look it up.here’s us recording it (photo by owen):
–----------------------
Dear Roadrunner Records,i would like to take this chance, as we part ways, to thank you for all you’ve done for me and for my band, The Dresden Dolls.
when we signed with you in 2004, i was a wreck of a human being because I was working too hard to juggle business-ing and musician-ing.
i wasn’t sleeping much and i was on the phone and at the post office and on the computer all day every day. it sucked.
technically it was good because it meant people liked my music, but it was also very bad, because it meant my life was consumed by wheeling and dealing.
i tried running my own label and it was so, so hard, and finding time and energy to run a label AND a touring rock band proved impossible.
.
.
.
.
.
you stopped helping us when our second record came out in 2006.
that made us really sad.
since then we’ve needed to part ways, but i will never regret signing with you…and i will never take for granted what you did to help my life.
.
.
.
.
all you label folk: i know so many of you as people, and i have talked to many of you over beers and wines in bars and cafes across the world over the years.
i know that the record business is not easy and that things are getting harder and harder by the day, and i know your jobs are not easy.i hope that as the industry teeters you can all find safe harbor, jobs that you really love, and connections with art and people that feed you.
here’s a nice photo that i took in your german office in 2007:
respect,
xxx
AFPin a nutshell: omg guys I'm out of my contract, FUCK YOU LABEL, but omgz thanx you label, you changed my life, i don't regret it omg. SO HERE'S A PICTURE OF ME NAKED UNDER YOUR SIGN. I AM AWESOME HURR!_
