Note on Cost of Lathe
Cuts - I know these are expensive. They
are really fun to do, but are ridiculously expensive to make when
you figure the
production, labels, and shipping costs from New Zealand, wire
transfer fees and the totally weak US dollar in relation to the
world market. My general pricing policy on these is to price them
just high enough to pay for the costs of the copies that I give
to the bands and the few that I keep for my archives. There is
NO profit margin on them, and I often lose money on the run. But
I really love making them, plan to continue doing so (when/if
the dollar improves), and really hope you enjoy listening to them!
Street Team:
Ever wanted to unselfishly help
out a struggling vinyl record label by dropping off little catalogs
and stickers and whatnot at record stores and venues? Didn't know
where to turn to volunteer these services? No one to take advantage
of your benevolence? Well, that is what we are here for! I can't
promise any real payoff for you other than my undying gratitude.
And perhaps I can do you a favor down the road. You never know!
If you would like to help us out, just click on the button below
and it will "buy " promotional materials for the low,
low, cost of absolutely nothing!

A note about preorders:
Every preorder I do ends up getting jinxed
and taking forever (through no fault of my own, I promise!), but
if you don't mind the wait, we've got a couple new preorders for
you. Both preorders will include the 320 kbps mp3s emailed to
you on June 21st-ish, long before the records arrive. Please be
aware that if you preorder both records, neither will be shipped
until both arrive. If you would like them shipped separately,
please purchase them in two different transactions.

The new album from Athens,
Georgia's Casper and the Cookies! They come in a beautiful,
gatefold cover. There are only 500 copies made, and only
200 copies are on AUDIOPHILE RED vinyl, in honor of Jason's
obsession with the Japanese red-vinyl version of Sgt. Peppers
and their reputation of being the best sounding version
of that album. PIAPTK.com will be the only place that you
can get the red version of this awesome record!
The first 50 preorders will receive
a special clear 5" lathe cut with two exclusive songs
on it, as well as the mp3s early.

Wand: Born Bad: $12

250 copies each. Between distros and preorders, these will
be gone REALLY quickly. Hand-screened covers now sold out,

Karl Blau: Ho! Western Lands/Wing Flap Mantra - TRIANGULAR
8" - FREE
This record is FREE! But, of course, there is a catch. As
a Holiday gift, and in celebration of our 32nd release (in
just over two years?!?!??!), we are offering this up as
a free thank you gift to our "frequent buyers".
It's a little thank you gift to the handful of folks that
buy the majority of our releases. We really do appreciate
you! Anyone who owns 18 or more of our releases so far,
(and buys our two new releases) gets one of these beautiful
records for FREE! And when I say beautiful, I MEAN it. The
picture does not do this thing justice. On clear, triangular
vinyl, in a hand-cut heavy duty picture disc sleeve that
has been resewn together with a homemade velum insert in
each flap. There are only 25 of these available, and they
CANNOT be purchased... If you are one of the few that qualifies
for this, please put a comment in your purchase that lets
me know ho wmany of our releases you have. I will probably
recognize your names anyway. If you are close, but don't
have enough of our releases yet, don't worry, we have plenty
coming up in the next few months! If these run out, there
is another bonus gift in the works for later!
Songs: Ho! Western
Lands, Wing Flap Mantra.

Golden Boots - EV/Coyote Deathbed
Surprize
LOTS OF OPTIONS ON THIS ONE!
Throw
Mutations-era Beck, The Monkees, and Gram Parsons into a
blender and you would get something roughly equivalent to
Tucson, AZ's The
Golden Boots. This is a double EP 12" that is comprised
of Coyote Deathbed Surprize tour-only EP, and the EV ep,
which was originally intended to be released on the Trust
Series. When I received those tracks, I couldn't, in good
conscience, allow there to be only 25 copies. I feel that
way with a lot of the lathe cuts I release, but this one
was just TOO GOOD! So here it is.
On top of all that this record has a couple of very peculiar
qualities:
SIDE A - PLAYS FROM THE INSIDE OUT!
SIDE B - HAS DOUBLE GROOVES that run parallel, meaning that
if you put the needle down on the lead-in groove, you will
play either the odd or even grooves, and each set of grooves
has a different set of songs.
Songs: Side A: Ancient
Buried City, West Nile Isle (Dictaphone Buffett Version),
Ghost
Machine, Days are Night, Slangin Family Ties Dub. Side
B: Evil One, Everything,
Evil Eye, Everytime.
Deluxe
Expanded Edition!
Because
of the foul-up at the pressing plant during the initial
run, we never got any of the "swirl" vinyl that
I really wanted for this release. So, I ordered an additional
250 on pink and orange "starblast" vinyl. And
they look AMAZING! Unfortunately, I had already cleaned
off the screens for the covers before I knew I would need
more. Dmitri from Golden Boots suggested doing an alternate
cover and including a new cassette as part of the packaging.
And thus, EV/CDS/TF was born! The full 17 song album is
also available for digital download at cdbaby.com,
and iTunes. Cdbaby
is cheaper, though! There are also 25 copies that come in
unique collage sleeves made by the Boots themselves. The
Telelog Freedom cassette is also available for individual
purchase.
