TIGERBEAT 6

Artist: EATS TAPES Title: Dos Mutantes
Format: CD Catalog
Number:
MEOW138CD
Price: $9.25 Label: Tigerbeat 6
Release
Date:
2/12/07
***Eats Tapes triumphantly return with ten relentless brain smashers! The group's second full-length, Dos Mutantes, features a battery of hardware sequencers, synths, modified drum machines, cassette players and a midi Nintendo. Eats Tapes specialize in noisy, spazzy techno bangers with irresistible hooks. Fusing a variety of influences, they comfortably straddle the San Francisco Bay Area's myriad club, psychedelic noise, and art-rock scenes.

Previous releases and remixes with and by Soft Pink Truth, Drop the Lime, Tussle, The Blow, Lucky Dragons, Sutekh, Kid606, Strategy, and Wobbly.

Album opener "No Part Name" lays down the genetically modified blueprint: techno tropes devolve into a mutant acid strain; tasty bass chunks recombine with scalp-scalding Nintendo noise and searing feedback. Letting up midway through the album-- on the midtempo house groover "Lemon Drop" and the down-home studio hoedown "Band Practice"-- the assault resumes on "I've Become Cretin," featuring smokin' guest licks by psychedelic shredder Nate Boyce (Matmos). This multimedia onslaught also features radioactive wrap-around six-panel digipak cover artwork drawn by mutant mastermind Mat Brinkman and Boyce's video for the track "Tenderizer."

Touring throughout 2007.

  • Recent appearances at Club Transmediale in Berlin and The Wire's Adventures in Modern Music fest
  • Previous releases and remixes with and by Soft Pink Truth, Drop the Lime, Tussle, The Blow, Lucky Dragons, Sutekh, Kid606, Strategy, and Wobbly
  • Features guest guitarist Nate Boyce's (Matmos) video for the track "Tenderizer" (Boyce's video for the non-album track "Ptery D" can be viewed at www.eatstapes.com)

Artist: EATS TAPES Title: Remix Party
Format: 12" Catalog
Number:
MEOW134
Price: $4.00 Label: Tigerbeat 6
Release
Date:
11/13/06
***On Remix Party! EATS TAPES transform THE SOFT PINK TRUTHís song "Homo-Sexual" into the writhing dancefloor monster now known as "Uh-Huh," while The Soft Pink Truth, WOBBLY and SUTEKH each bring you slamming underground mixes of three Eats Tapes choons. Wobblyís ìBody Partyî twists and bends ìAutomataî into a lubricated morph sequence between a slimy pulse and rigidly asymmetrical robot chugger. By tapping into the cyberdelic beast within ìCue My Tam or Ban Meî, Sutekh unleashes a jerky onslaught of hypnotic sound lasers and hyper cubes in a densely foggy brain chamber. Clocking in at a precise TR 7:07, ìJudy Works the Forest,î courtesy of The Soft Pink Truth, reconfigures the ìMystery of the Rainforestî as an epic struggle to unravel the mysteries of a technological jungle virtually existing between man and machine.

Artist: EATS TAPES Title: Sticky Buttons

Release
Date:

***Video artist Marijke Jorritsma and expert knob twiddler Gregory Zifcak animate antiquated and accelerated sawtooth and squarewave synth attacks with their circuit-bent and home-modified Roland synths and drum machines. Equal parts Wolf Eyes and Daft Punk with the kaleidoscopic vibrations of Perry and Kingsley, Eats Tapes provides the perfect analog fueled hi-NRG acid soundtrack for bedroom light-switch raves or unforgettable Friday night house parties.

Formerly known as Boom de la Boom, Eats Tapes have already become a household name in the Bay Area, introducing the sincerest of boom de la rave artpunk jams to the out-rocked, out-postured denizens of SF's Mission district and Oakland's free techno warehouse scene. Their music is a driving, chaotic organism riding a constant crescendo to an early grave. In performance, Eats Tapes wrangles howling hardware and discarded altered beasts, mutating the character and context of underground techno by grafting it with influences from the Bay Area's fertile improv noise scene. A sweaty night with Eats Tapes cures your wanderboom. Cue my tam or ban me!


Artist: EATS TAPES Title: Supreme Master
Format: 12" Catalog
Number:
MEOW116
Price: $4.00 Label: Tigerbeat 6
Release
Date:
10/3/05
***When invoked by an ancient spell through a ouija-modified Roland TR-707 drum machine, the rigorously authoritative "Supreme Master" emerges, cracking a metronomic whip on the inevitably subservient dance floor. This battering ram of an acid track will stop at nothing to perpetuate the out-of-context agenda of the Eats Tapes rave council. Also includes a burning anthemic acid soundclash remix from Kid606, and tech-house stompers from Caltrop and Portland ambientdisco superstar Strategy (Kranky, Nudge, Orac) Formerly known as Boom de la Boom, the band is already well known to the denizens of the Bay Area's outrocked, out-postured warehouse scene. Their music is a howling acidhouse/art-punk hybrid, mutating the character and context of underground techno by grafting it with influences from the improv and noise scenes.

Eats Tapes will be appearing in your living room dance party and warehouse gathering twice this summer while on tour with San Francisco dancepunk quartet Tussle (Troubleman Unlimited) and again on the Tigerbeat6 label tour with Kid606 and Knifehandchop.

1. Supreme Master
