Gotta Love Dem Flashmen (Take II)
July 15, 2009 · Leave a Comment
The Flashmen contest is technically over but we didn’t get the full onslaught of voicemails we’d have liked, so we’ve decided to do two things, extend the contest ’til Friday and lead by example.
The first is immediately in effect, the second is linked below and is St. Juice’s Flashmen Love Voicemail contribution. Hopefully this will spur off some of you anonymous people afraid to send something in.
To leave us a voicemail call 646-402-5694 and hit extension 71793.
Don’t forget what you’re playing for.
x.
MPM
p.s. Thanks to Jared over at Crush Central for giving us some love.

Our good friends Flashmen have an excellent track out on the Crushed Records sampler that came out today. “Little Wildkat” is a sordid three-minutes of passionate vocals courtesy of Daniel E. over splashy synths and thunka-thunka bass, most def. guaranteed to overclock your local party!
MPM loves Flashmen and Crushed records so much that we’re giving away a copy of the sampler to the MPM reader who can prove they have the most love for Flashmen.
Call our voicemail drop at 646-402-5694 ext. 71793 and leave us a message communicating your intense Flashmen love.
The most creative entry judged by MPM writers wins a giftcard for the entire Crushed Records album sampler at Amazon.
The competition will run until next Tuesday 14 July. (more…)

Weekend Mixtape (If it ain’t 8bit…)
July 3, 2009 · 1 Comment
Made this for Lori over at Get In The Van (from last week)
It’s a bunch of songs by St. Juice leaning more to the 8bit side of things. “8bit” is music made using gameboys, or any retro computer and video game hardware.
The mixtape is more “fake”-bit, it’s made using some of Tweakbench’s software instruments (VSTs) that emulate the sound of those wonderfully, shitty, evocative machines, so no real gameboys were harmed in the making of this mixtape…
Enjoy, this one clocks in at just over 12 minutes.
