NeMaTOdE



this is the label/press that i run where i release music from my friends' bands and projects from the bay area. at the moment they're all tapes but i've been thinking about expanding to other media soon and releasing distro items from other people. i charge only for the cost of making the cassettes themselves for the bands and not for any labor or profit and dub them all myself. since most of these tapes aren't online, the idea is to put whatever surplus/additional stock i make with my own money and sell them online, using the profits to go to charity like http://www.bayareagirlsrockcamp.org/ instead of keeping for myself. The bands with on this label include:

Summer Peaks
Jay Som
Crush
Buddies
Toner
Valley Girls

DAiSY WORLD ::: 7"



here it is, Daisy World's debut public release. their music was only previously available through on tape found at shows or on their soundcloud but this new 7" showcases some newly recorded tracks that have otherwise been unavailable. chock-full drony/loud guitar + drums and plodding vocals much like their live shows but with less feedback

CRAZY BUGS ::: BUG-OUT BAG



not at all from the bay area but definitely worth sharing: this release is from Vancouver's very Own crazy Bugs. featuring katayoon from OTHER JESUS and TOUGH CUSTOMER and Will 'flipmcgeesandy' from WEED and Marisa from CAVE GIRL. might be their debut release or might not, whatever, they played 34th and Telegraph in Oakland and El Rio in San Francisco not long ago and killed it. very hardhitting and fast punk rock with some cool lyrics, most is a little bit unintelligible due to the qaulity of the tape. the tape i got from them was a dubbed over voice cassette on flavonoids and free radicals. weird stuff.  still sounds good though, you can download it here:

FROOGYS GROOVIES ::: MOOVES


a semi fresh cut from san francisco's own Death Records, this album is the featured debut from local artist Emmet 'Muzzy' Moskowitz who's in a slew of other Death bands like Emotional, Healing Potpourri and Teenage Chain. these 11 tracks feature some pretty happy-jammy tunes made by Muzzy himself on guitar drums and vocals and whatever the heck else. albums like this are hard to come by because some Death Records releases never see the light of day online and only on tape so don't miss out!

EDIT: you can actually find this album here but not cut up into separate tracks/ you can also check out some more tunes of his here

PANG COMPILATION





the complete collection of tunes of former bay area band PANG whose songs are otherwise hard to come by. this comp is available as 'fan' package from special view and comes with the comp on cassette, a zine and an enamel pin. shame they never stuck around because all their songs RIP. luckily almost all the members are still off doing music here in the bay area: alexa is in MANY MANY bands including Violent Change, Rays, The World, amongst others; Elyse is in PUZZLED and also the World and maybe some other band that i can't remember off the top my head; Candace is in a band called Mansion who came out with a cool album last year called Early Life. The link below comes with all songs and a pdf scan of the zine
