LO-FI: candyhammer lo-fi doesn't release CD's in jewel cases. We use the NEXPAK technology, not unlike the ultra-slim plastic cases in which your TV on DVD volumes are often snugly packaged. The case is clear, revealing 2 additional panels of artwork upon opening.
We have opted for this unique format in order to allow for a broader range of options in a CD layout: most utilize the whole rectangle, for a cover that either displays when the case is turned on its side-- like widescreen presentation on a plasma TV screen--
or stand up like a giant cassette cover:
In each case, it is more than twice the size of traditional CD artwork.
Our aim in publishing with this format is to provide bolder, bigger, more detailed art to accompany the music.
HI-FI: candyhammer hi-fi does release CD's in transparent jewel cases with double panel j-cards, shrink-wrap, bar code, GPS chip, and detonator wired to the candyhammer mainframe for self-destruct.

Our goal is to co-establish, inhabit, and perpetuate a network of independent producers, performers, and publishers, related thru ongoing SNAIL MAIL and HAND-TO-HAND connections for trading music, merch, and art-- as well as live performances and all manner of cross- promotions.
we love hard-copy music: CD's & VINYL.
for us, music ought to be touched, felt; even banged up a little bit, then borrowed, touched, and bought by someone else, then borrowed, touched, and bought again (like it was 20 years ago).
we love showing up for LIVE SHOWS: we want to help drum up a scene where dynamic, amazing artists are booked through reliable, straightforward, attentive, candid, consistent communications with venues and promoters;..where droves of expectant, excited fans converge and stand/dance/flail/or just nod in front of the stage and involve themselves with the creations and experiences that the artists channel and embody.
We want to help build it.

REVIEWS:
CANNIBALPLANET-
"Your sound is weird and definitely crazy; like a circle, it's spinning away.
Are you a young crazy scientist, mixing away différent wavelengths inna high tech laboratory?
Or maybe U're just tripping !!!!
Good trip, actually. i like, it kik's ass !!!! it's like an électroshock psychothérapy !!!!"
-Pascal XW, X Weapon
Yellow Squares-
"Indeed this CD may be about lamb chops. It may be about food,
for that matter. There are songs on here about olives and melons.
But you know what? This CD is fucking great! Yellow Squares may very
well be one of the most underknown, underappreciated, underused bands
to date!
To fully understand just how this CD sounds, you have to hear it.
But trust me, it's worth the listen. It's kind of got a comedy feel
to it, for the fans of Tenacious D, Adam Sandler and They Might Be
Giants, but then it's also got its own kind of twist to things.
Let's just put it this way: After you hear this CD once (and you will),
you will want to hear it again. You'll be left thinking "What the fuck??!?"
at first, but it will leave you wanting to hear it again if for no other
reason than to laugh at the comedy of it.
Plain and simple- one of the most brilliant CDs of this day and age.
Why? Do you think this CD is stupid? Maybe it is. Maybe it isn't. But
it surely is funny. It surely entertains. It surely does something to
you that no other CD can do. It's challenging. It's innovative. And
most importantly, no matter how silly or however else you'd like to
label it, it simply does not suck."
-Josh Nacho, Nacho Cheese And Anarchy e-zine
transformers for girls-
"This CD is interesting. I didn't know quite what to expect at first,
but after hearing it, I'm rather impressed. In simplest terms,
Transformers for Girls sound like old school Nirvana, something
along the lines of a Sub Pop band. They have rock that is pretty much
led by bass lines. I like it. And the lyrics are also funny at times,
while at other times heartfelt. This is a good listen for those of us
who have had enough of everything else that sounds the same.
Definitely not what I expected, but definitely kick ass."
