[Music] News From Silber Media: QRD touring musician interviews & more
Hello,
I hope all is going well. It’s been a few years in the making, but QRD finally launched the touring musician interview series (featuring Alan Sparhawk of Low, Phil Dole of Chord, Shane DeLeon of Miss Massive Snowflake, Chris Brokaw of Lemonheads, Mkl Anderson of Drekka, & a few more). Let me know what you think of the series & if I should keep it going. This issue also has feature interviews with M is We & Lycia as well as a label owner interview with Manuel of Records Ad Nauseum & a cartoonist interview with Larry Johnson & a couple short stories from Phil Dole & Nathan Amundson. Spread the word about whatever interview is your favorite if you can.

In the music news front there is a ton of stuff about to happen. Releases from Chvad SB, Bronze Eye+LD, Yellow6, Anda Volley, Moodring, Electric Bird Noise, Hotel Hotel, Dyr Faser, M is We, & a ton of others are all about to happen given I figure out how to balance time well enough to get press releases & promotions ready. So keep an eye out on social media & your inbox for when those things happen. I’ll be sending newsletters out a little more often than every two months once releases start kicking out every couple of weeks.
If you need one inch buttons made, I added a new option where you get 35 buttons with up to 35 different designs for $17 plus shipping. Great option for people with a lot of design ideas, but not ready to commit to the typical requirement of 100 buttons per design. Get the template & more info at www.silbermedia.com/buttons/custom.shtml
That’s it for me for now.
Thank you for your interest & support, I couldn’t do it without you. If you want to be taken off the mailing list just let me know.

[Music] Dom Salvador e Abolição – Hei! Você (1971)
A very pleasant, beautiful surprise out of Brazil. Dom Salvador was a pianist who performed in the MPB style, and this release with his backing band, Abolição, was released in 1971.
[Music] Art Ensemble of Chicago – Purple Haze
Yes, that Purple Haze, the Jimi Hendrix cover. The Art Ensemble of Chicago give it a funky brass arrangement.
[Music] Vino de la Casa – Que por el Aire Van
A traditional song from the region of Cantabria, Spain, courtesy of a project by José Ignacio H. Toquero (also see his Google+ page), who plays Spanish guitar for this band.
[Music] Explosions In The Sky – The Wilderness (Temporary Residence, 2016)
Italian indie magazine Music Won’t Save You reviews a lot of brilliant albums. If you’re a native Italian speaker, or simply want to brush up, consider subscribing to their site.
Explosions In The Sky’s new release is another masterpiece, by the way.
[Music] Kickstarter Project: Jeffrey Roden Collaboration With Solaire Records
I was fortunate enough to meet Jeffrey Roden when I used to work at the legendary Aron’s Records, and would also see him at Gábor Csupó’s avant-restaurant, Lumpy Gravy, to perform. A true gentleman and scholar, as well as a great bassist and pianist, I’m happy to report that Jeffrey is now fully funded for his project, releasing three CDs with Solaire Records.
Here is his Kickstarter page, which launched this endeavor.
[Music] Delirium (Mexico) – Delirium
There’s little more confusing than having three really good bands share the same name (the other being the Bill Leeb electronic music project, and a progressive rock band from Italy).
Still, this Mexican Delerium has a lot going for it, and will be liked by those who enjoy groups like Emerson, Lake & Palmer and Italian symphonic progressive rock.
TRACK LISTING:
1.- Armagédon 0:01
2.- Atrio de las Ánimas 2:55
3.- Nocturno en Caminata 8:56
4.- Primer Diálogo 15:18
5.- Hellyet 22:46
6.- Lágrimas 26:20
[Music] Nekropolis – Musik Aus Dem Schattenreich (1979)
Musik Aus Dem Schattenreich is an avant-progressive masterpiece by German electronic music composer Peter Fröhmader’s band Nekropolis.
