Zeitgeist 2013

You again?!

Warm Gospel at the Vaudeville Mews in Des Moines

The Warm Gospel label was created based on the concept of recreating the grand, layered spectrum of gospel music using the contemporary ideas and tools of electronic, noise, and ambient music. The result is something new. Over the past year, Warm Gospel has collected releases from many of Iowa's beat and noise makers, including DJ DJ TANNER, Tires, Olsen Twinns, Juxwl, and others. In combining these artists under a single label, Warm Gospel has established a foundation of rumbling noise, tidal waves of synth, and layers of clouded harmonies in a part of Iowa where, previously, experimental music was never fully realized as an important part of the state's overall music output.

On December 18th, the Vaudeville Mews will showcase nearly every artist on the Warm Gospel label, bringing an entire night of electronic sound exploration to Des Moines.

Warm Gospel Bandcamp Page

My tape label, Warm Gospel, now has a bandcamp page where you can listen to all of the tapes in full. Also, Issue 1 of the All Iowa Noise Insurgency Zine is underway. Look for it to be released sometime in the next month. It's going to be soooooooo cool.

Zeitgeist AND Iowa Noise AND the DMMC (kind of)

I found a great article by the Centipede Farm tape label founder, Chuck Hoffman.

It's all about the accomplishment that was the Zeitgeist music festival and the state of Iowa noise music.

Check it out.

Zeitgeist: A Celebration of Iowa Noise Music

My label, Warm Gospel, will be sponsoring Zeitgeist: A Celebration of Iowa Noise Music at the old Elephungeon space in Boone, Iowa.

You should go, see some of the best noise bands in Iowa, and buy tapes to support the festival and its artists. There will be a Warm Gospel table there with a variety of different releases and some free stickers. Make sure you take a look!

Halloween Time!!

My friend Nick (DJ DJ TANNER) and I (Skyscraper) had talked about doing a Halloween tape since last year, but we didn't get around to it until now.

Listen to/download the tracks over at my bandcamp page, and you can buy one of the tapes from Warm Gospel.

I've also released a number of new tapes on the label, including a new one from DJ DJ TANNER, Theodore Schafer, and Skyscraper.

Currently underway is a tape from Ames, IA's JUXWL, another one from DJ DJ TANNER, and a Warm Gospel compilation, which I am still accepting tracks for, so send me your music if you want it to be included on the compilation.
