      Selling out means changing your sound/vibe/look/ethos in order to please the masses and get more attention and make more money.

      Hi Allan,

      Thanks for getting back to me. So many amazing bands you've been in! I'll get some questions written up and email them to you. I'll try and come see your new band when you play in Dalston too, not too far from where I am.

      Cheers

    • Hey Garagepunk Hideouters...

      After years of lugging CD's and LP's with me to DJ gig, I think I'm finally ready to switch to working off of a laptop. 

      Any suggestions for decent and usable DJ software to run on a Mac laptop? I'm willing to pay if it's totally killer, otherwise something free would be preferred.

      Also.. any thoughts about an outboard soundcards? My friend runs one so he can designate one soundcard (cpu headphone jack to mixer) as channel one, and the other (external USB driven soundcard to mixer) as channel two.  He then plugs the unit into the external mixer for choosing the channels, fading etc.

      I'd appreciate any thoughts on the matter.

      Thanks

      D.E.

    • Have a look at a band called the Witches from Brighton on FB, bit darker and psychy, they're also on tour soon. As above with Dirty water, all I posted was what I'd bought recently, the Dustaphonics album is excellent. Snakeman 3 were in France for a week and are trying to finish their new single so probably wont be playing again for a while, check out the Fallen Leaves, their guitarist was in the Subway Sect, they regularly play at a club night in Hackney, name of which escapes me now but they have a couple of albums out. Not English but Acid baby jesus are also excellent, their album was played a lot by me. And the Embrooks need to be checked if only for Jack!

      And for a lovely bit of psychyshoegazing look for the Koolaid electric company, Untitled is ace!

      Blimey! Bit of a ramble there, it's me age!!

    • Nice one guys - knew this was a good idea.  I've got more than enough to sink my teeth into now.  Thanks again. Will check these out and feedback

      PS: anyone with other recommendations are always welcome!

    • There are quite a few really great UK-based bands included on the Hideout Comp Series. The Thanes, The Creeping Ivies, Pussycat & the Dirty Johnsons, The Parents, The Past Tense, Lot Lizards, Les Bof!, The Blue Giant Zeta Puppies, Rattlin' Bone, Los Tentakills, Atomic Suplex, Mutants of the Holocaust, One Fathom Down, The Mourning After, Agent Twang, Acid Fascists, and Al Hotchkiss are all from either England or Scotland.

      And yeah, like Dave said, check out Dirty Water Records. They're one of our advertisers here, too, and offer a discount in their store for Hideout members.

    • Check out the Dirty Water label.

    • OK, liking the hypnotic eye, although a bit tamer than I'd like. I'm gonna go check them out soon, they look like they are playing a fair bit.  Wasn't so keen on the Wicked Whispers, or Higher State, but Snakeman 3 sound pretty fun, found a live video on Youtube, and might have to go searching for them.... have emailed them to see when they are touring next.

      If anyone is in my postion, have also found a band that look very cool: The Dustaphonics.  Sadly, I just missed them playing on Friday - plus am out of the country on the 25th, so may have to wait until after decemeber... still, it's a start.

      Anyone know anything else, perhaps something a little more garage punk

    • October 14, 2012 4:02 PM CDT
    • Lovely,

      Bit late to check it now, but will do soon. Thanks for the response :)

    • October 14, 2012 3:25 PM CDT
    • Hey Tyler, check out the Hypnotic Eye, their single Marianne is on youtube, great stuff, the Wicked Whispers are a bit more jangly but have a new single out as well. Check out Mole on here, he's in the Higher State but put's out other stuff as well, Mole was also in the Mystreated and the Embrooks. Snakeman 3 are another good band, better live than the album but should have a new single out soon. 

      Hope this gives you something to start with?

    • The lead singer of The Hombres, most famous for "Let it Out (Let it All Hang Out)" was shot and killed in Memphis early Sunday.

      He was working as a security guard in an apartment complex (at the age of 70!) Apparently he heard gunfire in a nearby complex, went to investigate and got killed.

      In addition to The Hombres, Cunningham also played in Jerry Lee Lewis' band in the '90s.

      An obit is here: http://www.commercialappeal.com/news/2012/oct/14/east-memphis-shooting-leaves-two-dead/

       "Let it Out (Let it All Hang Out)" is the opening theme song of my local radio show. In his honor, tonight I played it twice.

    • Although I'm no bassplayer, I've borrowed my brother's – more upscale model – SG a couple times for studio work, and have no complaints.  In my experience, it is an "easy" bass to play, and personally I think four-stringed SG's look cool too. My bro. has several other basses, but the SG is usually his first choice.

      Be aware though, that a properly set up guitar is – at least part of – the key to great guitar (or any instrument for that matter) sound and feel… 

      Generally branding certain gear as "crap" based on a single experience (I'm sure there are a few shitty Casady's lying around too), hearsay, or even looks (and in my book the EB2 is a real non-looker – but each to his own) regrettably seems to be a quite popular "modus operandi" on the www.  Sadly, the quality of such opinions is… well, crap.  Hope you have the integrity to realize their limited value.

      Now, I won't tell you that the budget-priced "faded" model SG is the only/best alternative for you, but if you want shortscale, and you dig the design, then it just might be… But, in any case; "try before you buy" is my best advice, and if possible; have a good guitar tech look it over before the "trying" part. 

      Best of luck.

      Thanks guys for your answers. I heard it s a easy bass to play (it's shortscale) and it s one of the reasons of my interest. The Casady looks great but I'm really a shortscale guy (when speaking about bass :-) )...

    • Best thing they've done for years, Jagger sounds less like a caricature of himself than he has done for a long time. Had to turn the Scorcese film of them off as it was like watching a really bad Jagger impersonator(vocally rather than visually), but on this he sounds more jumpin' jack flash again.
