There Isn't Anywhere (We Can't Find You) VIDEO

Here's another video from the rerelease of The Catbird album.  The song is called "There Isn't Anywhere (We Can't Find You)".  Full of circuit-bent toys, drum-machines, metal guitars, and all around zaniness.  Footage is all shot by me and edited in that Windows Live Movie Maker program.  Fun stuff.  For a FREE download of the entire album just visit the mediafire link.  Thanx!  -Jabbo

Video - "Slowly Losing Hope"

Here's a short video I made for the song "Slowly Losing Hope" from The Catbird.  The record was recorded in 2010 and I released most of the songs individually through MySpace and ReverbNation.  Maybe a dozen or so copies of the physical cd were ever made.  The Catbird was the second album I put out under the Eula Mae name and is one of the strangest things I have recorded to date.  I was heavily into circuit-bending at the time, so...   Finally, the record is being released as a whole.  The official 2012 version is the 3rd release from Subvert From Within Records and can be downloaded from Mediafire for free at this link: Eula Mae - The Catbird

Big thanks to all who have made contact and supported my efforts in any way.  Y'er awesome.  -Jabbo

Eula Mae - The Catbird album. Free download!

Here's the latest from Eula Mae. The Catbird is the 3rd official release from Subvert From Within Records.  I recorded this back in 2010.  I think I was still recording to cassette with the 4-track then.  I was also heavily into circuit-bending at the time.  Hence, the non-stop sound of toys going crazy in the background...  Most of the drums are from my old Alesis SR-16.  (Though I always called it Chatterboxxx. :-)  This is also around the time that the SP-808 came into my life.  Yep, a real sampler instead of tape loops.  Used the sampler with all the vocals.  In my typical fashion, the record is a hodgepodge of sounds and styles.  Post-metal guitars, old-school beats, and lots and lots of electronic noise.  You can download the album from Mediafire for FREE at this link. Eula Mae - The Catbird

Big thanks to everyone who has downloaded the first two SFW Records releases as well as everyone who has made contact or in some way been supportive.  Believe me, I can use all the support I can get.  Haha.  Peace.  -Jabbo

Videos: "Hum" & "Falling Snow"

Here's a couple of short videos I made for songs from the Party With Tina record.  (Available as a FREE Mediafire download. The Paranoia Room - Party With Tina)  I shot the footage and assembled these over the holiday break.  It's been fun learning to work with the video software, and creating visual imagery to accompany the songs has been an interesting process.

This is the video for "Hum".

And here's the video for "Falling Snow".

I was kinda annoyed recently to find another band on Youtube suddenly using the Paranoia Room name.  I've been recording under that moniker since 2004, so it kinda sucks to have someone else come along using it.  The other Paranoia Room is some sorta spanish-speaking garage band.  I'm not sure where they're from and I wish 'em all the best, but like I said, it's just sort of annoying to have someone else fucking with the name.  I had been planning on releasing all my new electronic stuff under the Gridcrawler name eventually anyway, but I guess I'll have to start sooner than I had anticipated.

As far as the Gridcrawler project, recent computer problems have brought all my new music composition to a screeching halt.  I'm hoping to get my computer issues resolved this week and get a new copy of FL Studio.  I'm gonna incorporate the Massive VST into my setup and see what I can do with that amazing little plugin.

Holiday vacations almost over, but it's been a lot of fun.  Now the countdown to summer break begins.  Haha.  Thanks for checking in and HAPPY NEW YEAR! 

Yer pal,

Party With Tina album download!!!

Here's the "eagerly awaited" second release from SFW Records.  This is the new reissue of 2006's Party With Tina album.  This was the first thing I released as The Paranoia Room and was essentially my first stab at creating electronic music.  It was released via MySpace and a couple of other online outlets back in '06.  The song, "Sell The Kids" was included on a compilation of noise artists back in '06 or '07 called Soiled Comp: Def-Recs #025.  That was released by an internet label called Defenestrated Records.  I believe that label is still around if you want to check them out.  They specialize in really extreme, primarily noise-oriented, music.  The tunes those folks put out makes my stuff sound like the Osmond Family!

This version of Party With Tina has some additional remixes and things added along with some extra samples here and there to spice things up.  The recordings are super lo-fi, as I was still recording to cassette back then, but the record is still fun for open-minded listeners.  There are elements of noise, industrial, drum 'n bass, glitch, circuit-bending, ambient and pretty much every other type of electronic music that most people hate.  Haha...  Download it, crank it, and annoy your neighbors.  It's guaranteed!  (You can stream some of the songs over at my ReverbNation page.  It's over at http://www.reverbnation.com/theparanoiaroom.)

I've been having fun with Windows Live Moviemaker, so I'll probably whip up a couple of videos for this record and release 'em to YouTube.  I'll post them here on the SFW blog as soon as they're finished.  (You can see my previous videos on earlier blog posts, or just go to YouTube and search "Rottenrazcal".)  Thanks for stopping by and check in often for more weirdass music.  It is appreciated.

Ya boy,
Jabbo.

"Youth Party Anthem" / "Contempt" Video

Been having a lot of fun with Windows MovieMaker...  So here's another short film I made this weekend featuring two songs from the 1st Eula Mae record, The Iris Sessions.  The video was filmed under a bridge in Randleman.  LOL.  FTW!!!  Also, if you haven't already gotten yourself a copy, you can download the new 2011 reissue of The Iris Sessions over at Mediafire for free.  Here's the link. Eula Mae - The Iris Sessions

Video: Obsessive Thoughts/Dangerous Patterns

Here's a short video I made for the song "Obsessive Thoughts/Dangerous Patterns".  It's a song from Eula Mae's The Iris Sessions recordings that I tinkered with a little and included on the 2011 reissue.  (You can download the entire album for free from Mediafire.  Here's the link- Eula Mae - The Iris Sessions.)  I made the video with footage I shot with my cellphone coming home from work one evening.  I drove past a row of dead deer on the side of the highway.  Like 5 dead deer...they all had their antlers cut off and most of their meat removed.  Happens all the time around here.  People just dump the skin/bones/guts on the side of the road or in a field or something.  Stunk to high heaven, but it was sorta touching to see this row of dead animals laying there.  The resulting video clips inspired me to learn how to use that Windows Movie Maker thing.  Pretty cool, considering how free everything was.  Anyway, thanks for stopping in and checking it out.  Y'er a pal!  -Jabbo
