a: We just came out with our debut EP, Basement Membranes and released it through the Baltimore label Environmental Aesthetics. We recorded it at DBA and with J. Robbins in Baltimore and we had such a good time with him we decided to record our full length at his studio as well. We’re hard at work on it at the moment and it’s going to literally slay, we are trying to get Weezy, Gucci Mane, Charles Manson, TI and Phil Spector to do guest vocals and production.

Here is a track off their new Basement Membranes EP.

Nick Noeding Jr. is busy. Besides his Shoegaze/Down-tempo/Acousmatic/Tape music solo work as Pollination, he is also currently involved in the following projects Day Of The Woman (w/ Yppah and Stenographer), Collider (a Yppah collab), 10k Cities (a Zoomzip collab), and Slow (a Stenographer collab). And then there is also his wildlife analysis photography. Oh, and he also plays in Yppah’s live band.

So we were pretty excited to received a mixtape from Nick the other day. If you want the real “mixtape” experience with the 79MB file below maybe you should get one of THESE (and if you do let me know if it actually works). If you don’t want to dl the whole mix, I have also included a few individual mp3s for your downloading pleasure. Listen…
