tom and i decided that we're starting a record label. aside from having nothing better to do, i think that this is a serious calling for me; if not just another way to spread myself thinner.

we talk about vitality and importance. i want to put out things that i believe in that need to be heard. though most of the releases will be of a very limited scope, i feel even uniting 50-100 people through a unique aural experience is a profound and beautiful thing (cheese dick moment). i think the idea of community is naturally exclusive but in the same sense it is still building a community. small scope isn't just due to a financial barrier. it is an assurrance that evey piece that is commodified was a hand held and labored one.

for those of you familiar with belle and sebastian, they have a song called, "step into my office baby." a great pet sounds percussion jamming with an orchestrally over blown donovan etc...etc... it always reminds me of milwaukee. in particular, getting ready for parties where i got too fucked up to make new friends, but so happy with the ones i had that i didn't give a fuck. this song takes me back so hard. what an amazing quality. all i would ever want to do is to create something that could take someone back this hard.

it is an amazing thing how we can retain details from totally meaningless events that will haunt us years later. almost 2 years later there is a night that i can't shake and i would never want to. goddamn the brains, scent and mystery.
