Q. WHATS THIS DEMO CLUB ABOUT THEN ?
The collective like to work in one take to capture the raw first idea.
The members belive that the true spirit of the song appears at its first creation, and no matter how naive ,rough amatuer the songs sound there is a freshness that is gained by not polishing out the bumnotes and reworking to excess.
Q. BUT THAT'S NOT VERY PROFFESSIONAL IS IT ?
It depends on your point of view ,but we belive it has a charm and honesty that repetitive reworking can destroy .Like early punk rock its raw ,homespun and its ours and we don't care !
Q. SO YOU DONT CARE ?
Well everyone likes to be liked and we would love to hear from people who dig our sound ,but we also know that a lot of people wont get it ,but we wont let that stop us experimenting.
We know the collective has more inspiration than outright talent ,but we see that the sum is greater than its parts.
We will keep on keeping on, and add new demos all the time because we have plenty of ideas.
Thats what the Demo Club is about
Hey Dodgy Demo Club, I am happy to see you are doing great with your latest release. Keep it up Dodgy Demo Club. I want you to know that I am big fan. I love your talent. T PS.:Follow me at Twitter:http://twitter.com/iaent
Sadly not... I'm really an email kind of guy and find all this social media stuff (facebook, myspace) a bit too much work. I was online to post a note to the Naked Heroes who I saw in a bar in New York last night. Got to know them before the gig and they namechecked me throughout (though they think I'm called English Brian... that's another story). Currently dreaming about double heading them and the Greenheads in New York as a birthday present to myself. Probably cloud dreams though.
I mentioned DDC, Sarum and TDG to them (should have also mentioned My Odd Gong) but you might want to post us as friends. They remind me of White Stripes but a bit heavier. They're from Brooklyn (i.e. 5 miles from Manhatten) but only managed to pull in about 10 fans to a very small venue. Really strange since they're actually pretty good.
Hope all is well with you. Tell me how the music's going (but on email please, not here!). Any chance of those vocals you promised me? How's you financing going on?
It's essentially a music review aggregation service, providing a constantly updated chart of critical reaction to releases, with various ways for users to personalise the chart.
We're hoping our site will be another useful way for music lovers to find new music. So if you like it, please use it and also pass on the link.
Thanks for adding me... I get it. I never demo. I write the song. I record the song. I post the song. And, along the way, I try not to wear it out. I like your songs. They sound fresh. I get it! Wishing you the best of everything.
