Studiomuscle records is proud to release a new record! Our first vinyl release ever! It’s by a rapper Steven H from Kaster who sings in Kasters dialect, a dialect incomprehensible by anyone not living in Kaster. Fascinating!
You can order this release directly from us (or, if you are living in Ghent, you can pick it up at the Vinylla or FNAC) for 12 Euro’s. Or you can download a digital version from itunes. Enjoy
.
This friday we celebrate this release with a super-official Steven H record release party. It’s where all the hipsters this friday will be!
In the mid-nineties, when shoegaze was pretty much ridiculed, and long before GarageBand and Ableton Live, a four-track machine was the ultimate tool of the homerecording idiot. Made with a cheapo sampler, a drum machine, an analogue synth, guitars and a voice. These fossils are now presented to you.
There’s more where that came from…
Yesterday, an anonymous package was delivered at the Gent Al Jazeera affiliate. The package contained the barely readable words “studio muzzle"and held a betamax tape with an unusual video message. Until now it is still unclear who is responsible for the weird performance on this video recording, nor what message these supposedly Afghan women want to communicate… All tips are much appreciated!
More on facebook. And Herman also posted an official statement for his endorsement of de portables, playing at Rock Werchter
We are pretty psyched for this saturday’s Kraak festival in the Manchester of Belgium, Aalst.
Especially for the occasion we prepared a special festival act “de Moonbull worshippers of the sunsnake altar”. “de worshippers” make tetrahedron renditions of classic de portables songs, adding mystic flames of heavy psych energy and unconscious Atlantean hieroglyph lyrics. Sadly we had to cancel because Wio‘s house refurbishing program is slightly off schedule.
Luckily, other cosmic powers will play the Festival. Amongst them, my favorite band from the nineties: Bugskull and the saz-psych of Voice of the seven Thunders So, no excuses, this saturday thou shall move your mythical arse to Aalst!
