Looking for Bands/Musicians for a Compilation

[Guest Forfy23]

Calling all Experimental musicians/bands! (In particular, those who dwell in the fields of IDM/Glitch/Acid/Ambient/Breaks/Breakcore - though any Experimental genre is welcome!)

 

Looking for Experimentalists for a compilation that will be released on cassette/digital download/maybe more at later stages! The basic idea of the compilation is pretty simple - Fruit. The idea is to get a whole bunch of Experimental musicians/bands to contribute tracks relating to or named after fruits, and have them all mixed into a comp. That being said, the music can be fruit related, or completely unrelated and named "Orange" or "Pineapple" or whatever fruit the individual people desire. Once all the songs are made/collected, they'll be mixed together to form a "fruit basket" of a release.

 

The simplest ideas often make the best results, and that's what I'm hoping will come of it. If you are interested, please reply here, send me a PM, or email me: forfeh@gmail.com with your details and a sample or two of your work. Thanks!

Sounds interesting. How do you want to release it? Bandcamp or Netlabel or what?

"that will be released on cassette/digital download/maybe more at later stages"

 

So for starters it'll be available on cassette, and on netlabel (or Bandcamp or whathaveyou), and depending how popular it goes more formats may follow.

Fuckin’ yeah, I love fruit. I could get into this.

 

For a big disorganized pile of shit I wrote, you can go here: http://soundcloud.com/ascdi

 

Excepting of course the one called “mixtape” as that is a mixtape and not written by me.

 

What does fruit mean to me, musically? Hmm…

I was acutally waiting for someone to claim covering Aquarius as an "Orange" song, but I suppose that works too!

When is the due-date for submissions?

 

At the moment I'm waiting to hear back from all the people who expressed interest/I contacted; so there's no immediate rush. So no set deadline just now, but I'd like submissions within a month or two max.
