Founded in October 2011 by Dan Goldin and Dave Spak while still in college, Brooklyn's Exploding In Sound records are now one of the labels that form the backbone of NYC's punk and DIY communities.  An altogether humble operation run on true grit and a commitment to releasing artists they believe in, EIS now hosts one of the most diverse and exciting rosters around. For this month's Selects Mix,  we asked Dan Goldin to put together a mix comprised of current and upcoming EIS releases as well as other personal favorites. It's the Monday morning kick in the ass you need.

Oscar Galt & The Eventual Somethings - Necromancer

“Cassette tapes aren’t just a format, they’re a culture, and cassette culture is as 

…So said Jen Long at the grand announcement of Cassette Store Day, and it 

sparked something of an idea between long-term friends and previous musical 

collaborators Jack at Alcopop! Records and Luke at SuperFan 99. They wanted to 

figure out how to make the most collaborative cassette ever… So they invited 

everyone in the fucking world to be on it! 

Backed by some of the label’s finest, who form tracks 1-6 of all the cassette’s 

tracklisting (Helen Love, Get Inuit, The Spills, The Orielles, Zooz and Cotillon), the 

secret 7th track on each will be a complete mystery – only revealed when the 

listener takes a look at the hand-finished artwork panel inside the sleeve… 

Because every 7th song will be from a different artist via a completely open 

submissions process. 

The concept was announced a couple of weeks ago, and has already had over 100 

responses, from long lost bedroom demos – to established bands keen to be 

involved with a fun project. Says Jack from Alcopop… “This is the most 

overwhelming (if most fun) A&R job ever, listening to stacks of songs and picking 

our favourite 50. We’re not looking for quality of recording per se, just ace songs – 

and we’re happy to accept submissions from anyone… Be it bedroom projects that 

have never seen the light of day, to exclusive missing hits from Maiden. We’re just 

trying to make this truly collaborative to tap into what CSD is all about”.

Submissions can be entered until 1st September by emailing a track to 

thesecretseventh@outlook.com or via Jack at Alcopop! or Luke at Super Fan 99. 

Tracks will (of course) remain entirely property of the artist, and, if chosen, will 

be licenced to appear on a single cassette – and an optional free download insert 

(if the artist gives permission). 

The cassette will be released on desert glitter red for Cassette Store Day on 

October 17th.

Two Inch Astronaut - Andy's Progress Report

'Expansion Pact' is the first single from Gun Outfit's Two Way Player EP out on 2/12/2016.  Order Two Way Player here - http://wharfcatrecords.com/store/pre-order-gun-outfit-two-way-player

After nearly a decade and a steady flow of full lengths, EPs, and tapes, Gun Outfit can be safely identified as underground stalwarts and an institution of sorts, embodying the promise of lives lived for art. Outlasting simplistic “sounds like” comparisons, Gun Outfit have arrived at a sound that is awash in western light and as deep and expansive as their beloved Pacific Ocean.

On the heels of their justly lauded LP Dream All Over, Gun Outfit deliver Two Way Player, an EP of enigmatic and spacious guitar music that stands alongside the bandʼs boldest and strongest work thus far. Abstracted legends of the American West, fortunes gained and lost, tragic songs of life rendered in deep focus – all portrayed through mysterious and dense compositions that recall the lonely expanses and warm intimacies of the films of Bruce Baillie and Gunvor Nelson. Compulsory listening for any fan of American Music, Two Way Player is a brief, beautiful dispatch from the countryʼs most consistent band, a record equally suited for stoned sunny mornings and lonely full moon nights. Two Way Player was recorded in New York in June 2015 and features an alternate lineup including David Harris (Milk Music) on bass, Joe Denardo (Growing/Ornament) on guitar and Will Lawrence on electric piano in addition to the core group of Daniel Swire, Carrie Keith and Dylan Sharp. Recorded at Kutch 1 Studios, Brooklyn.
