Antiquated Future and Two Plum Press just released a 25 song retrospective tape today of Rose Melberg songs over the last 30+ years! One time edition of 300 copies so get it while you still can! Includes two essays about Rose’s music from Gina Sarti and Chris McFarlane ().

While you’re on Antiquated Future’s Bandcamp, check out the other tapes in the Selected Songs series such as Fred Thomas, Little Wings, Two White Cranes, and more! I can vouch for every single installment in the series, though I feel this new one is the very best one yet 🌹🌟🎉❤️

HAPPY 10TH ANNIVERSARY TO "ALWAYS ROOM" BY Diners

We released this cassette tape 10 years ago and has since gone through many subsequent editions. In fact, "Always Room" is the Lost Sound Tapes all-time best seller! At the moment we only have about 20 copies left of the 5th edition of this wonderful tape.

This album/tape is the inspiration for me coming up with the term "Certified Plastic".
Similar to certified gold, platinum, etc hehe, I consider tapes certified plastic if they've sold 400+ copies.

To commemorate this Certified Plastic™ banger, we've got some sales going on.

* The Lost Sound Tapes starter pack is 6 tapes and includes a copy of Diners "Always Room". Only about 10 of those packs left.
lostsoundtapes.com/products/lost-sound-tapes-starter-pack

* Not up for 6 tapes? You can buy Diners "Always Room" and get a bonus tape for free (of our choosing but let us know if you already have some of our releases so we don't send you something you already have :)

* Also there's always a buy 4 tapes get 1 free deal that's an automatic discount!

From the Neutral Shirt Bandcamp:
And here I am again, solemnly debating the merits of time. A succession of events, floating through space – why am I to deny the existence of that? The linear fabric of time gives birth to EGG TIME. What is EGG TIME? Why is EGG TIME? The present moment bears all of these gifts. Don’t look to the past, don’t look to the future. Don’t look at me. These are all constructs. EGG TIME is eternal and forever. EGG TIME is inside of us all.

and in the crevice of weatherable rocks,
lay the fruits of destruction
