The Record Machine

So as many of you might have seen we added a tumblr blog. We did it for a few reasons 1) I love the service and I think it is great way for posting more content and more regular content 2) It will hopefully give you some more insight into who TRM is and give you in sight to what we like and why. 3) This year we are creating so much new media we wanted a place to put it that didn’t clearly clutter up the news that you may want to get on a regular basis. So if your someone that is looking for daily content we will have more updates for you over on the blog. For someone that is looking for just the good stuff new release news, tour news, $2.00 albums and other offers keep yours right where they are and we will still have plenty of news on a weekly basis.

As you might have seen on the blog yesterday we released Part 1 to Sam Billen’s Removers album. It is the first 4 songs collected all into one handy place. So if you haven’t already gotten all of them we have a few different ways you can get your hands on these songs:
1) A new way: Become fans of TRM and post a note about ep on your facebook wall with this widget below:

or
2) Just give us your email address:

We knew when we committed to releasing an album every month we had some great new releases in the pipe for everyone to enjoy in 2010. I have to say that while every release in our catalog has a certain special place in our hearts this one does for me for several reasons. Saharan Gazelle Boy – Airplanes Can’t marks TRM’s 20th release in just under 7 years. While that might not sound like much it is pretty awesome for us a label to get to that point. This release is also the first release to have several songs recorded at my own home. For those not familiar with the name Saharan Gazelle Boy it is the solo project of Darin Seal from Capybara. Airplanes Can’t encapsulates everything I love about bedroom pop. As with these releases you will be able to hear a stream of the album and if you can’t afford the $2.00 you can download just a song for your email address.
