So then, since we're basically snowed in here - time for some top secret project revealing:
My oldest son, Kaito, and I will be opening a small new store here in Ypsilanti called "Technical Equipment Supply". Clothing, decks (Palace), music - lots of 7" and cassette, but other vinyl as well - the majority is modern funk/boogie & Detroit-related hiphop.
And since we're doing all of that, why not use this opportunity to make a super-label featuring a bunch of my buddies? So, there is also a new label happening alongside the store - TECH.EQPT.SPLY. 1st release (TECH-002) Soundmurderer/Atlas 7" 2nd release (TECH-004) Aphex Twin 10" 3rd release (TECH-006) Madlib 7" and more releases coming from Bogdan Raczynski, Flying Lotus, Wisp, Zinc, etc Label releases are only sold in-store (no digital, no online) - 7" & 10". A few other unique items in the pipeline but that's enough news for now. Probably* open this Wednesday, Dec 14 onward. Probably* hours will be 2-8pm or 3-9pm, something like that.
