Greetings and Salutations Music Lovers!
We wanted to update you all on what’s been going on in “Hairy Sloth w3rld” as of late. Lots of new website features and fresh content to celebrate. *Plus there’s plenty more to look forward to over the coming months and into 2010 as well. Let’s get caught up to speed here…
-> Firstly, in case you hadn’t noticed, the long awaited and over due HSR Compilation is now completed, converted, cohort-ed, uploaded and available for all your listening pleasures. Entitled: Hairy Sloth Records – “The Central FLaw In Us All Compilation – Vol. 1″. *It’s currently available for digital download over on HSR for a mere 5$, and in our humble opinion it’s worth every penny. (Note: ALL proceeds from the sale of this album goes towards further promoting the label, artists, and compilation.) Besides that, every OTHER musical item available on HSR up to this point in time is available for FREE download, with an option to donate if one so chooses.
So you’re probably interested in just who exactly is included on our first Compilation..
Well here’s the track listing to hopefully wet yer whistles and maybe inspire your more philanthropic natures in the process:
01 | A_Scissors – How To Drown A Whale (5:19)
02 | alGARhythm – Your Other Left (4:09)
03 | Benny Loco & Uncle Abuelito – Düsseldorf (4:17)
04 | R.Garcia – Hambone & Eef (3:45)
05 | Mr. Whitefolk – UnderwaterFM (5:47)
06 | Michael Mcnabb – Machine Talk (5:45)
07 | Death To False Love – Diametrically Composed (4:32)
08 | Drone Operator – The Enchantress Of Number (3:12)
09 | Dr. XnLb – The Ghosts Of Your Past Always Haunt Closest To Your Heart (4:54)
10 | Benny Loco & Uncle Abuelito – The Walk (1:52)
11 | Ars Phoenix – Hanging Fire (Hairy Sloth Mix) (4:15)

15 | Engine Heart – Tremendo Culo (3:56)
Not too shabby, eh? Tis really a solid listen, start to finish. Props to all the comp artists for sharing their special muzaks with us all ie for their auditory generosity, and for their trust in this new venture and young label.
-> Secondly, This Summer we released two more EPs to our catalog by the artists: “R.Garcia” + “Benny Loco & Uncle Abuelito”. This brings our current catalog collection to 5 EPs and one glorious Compilation with more on the way in the coming months. Looking to try and release full lengths by A_Scissors, alGARhythm, & Drone Operator by the end of the year, and we have some other irons in the fire as well.
-> Thirdly, Besides the website/label updates which include a new faster server, a new secure cash register feature, and a “shop” section.. we’ve got this new area of the site called “Detritus”. This is a blog styled section of the site where we’ll be offering strictly FREE downloads of individual MP3s, Video, Photos, and any other content we feel worth offering up to our friends, fans, and customers. The idea behind this section of the website is to supplement time between major album and EP releases, as those can’t happen every single month. We’re hoping that by offering up free tracks and other tidbits n’ sundries every few weeks er so, many of them exclusive to HSR.. -That we’ll be able to generate a bit more regular and return traffic to the label. I mean, who doesn’t love exclusive and Free songs and videos? Right now, there’s a 12 minute Death To False Love MP3 and 2 brand new songs by Benny Loco up on/in Detritus that you’ll find no where else on earth. Go Download those joints now, along with the other EPs. There’s plenty of fresh content for everybody. Hope you dig and enjoy it all.
Lastly but not leastly, We’ll be doing an Avant GARism event on Oct 16th at the Laboratory in Gainesville, Florida, and simultaneously helping to kick off the “Solder VI: Electronic Music Festival”. -Which many of u are well aware is happening the very same weekend! Mad thanx to “Minimum Of None” for helping to set this up, and who will also be playing the event along side alGARhythm and A_Scissors. Both of whom will be playing many of their new, unreleased tracks that you won’t be hearing until a few months from now when their new LPs drop like bombs on here at HSR. Please come check out the show if in the Gainesville area, and be some of the very few folks who get’s to hear their new music before the rest of the w3rld does. Gar’s also got a special surprise for everybody during his set which has never quite been attempted before. Fingers crossed that he can pull it off.
Well that’s it for now.. Plenty of stuff here to get any interested parties up to date and informed on Hairy Sloth Records’ and it’s label mates recent output and endeavors.
Feel free to let us know any feedback you may have on any of the information or releases listed above. Always interested to know what ourcustomers, patrons, and creative contemporaries are thinkin’ and feelin’ bout our w3rks and just in general.
Love, respect, creativity, and understanding to all – Tha Hairy SLoTH Crew
PS – We’re also working now on getting many of our releases available in physical CD formats too. As well as some artist and label apparel ie shirts, hats, hoodies, stickers, etc. Will def let u know if any of that comes to fruition.
