BWR013 "Slavebot Point" is the story of an assembly line robot whose artificial Intelligence gradually transforms into feelings and human emotion until it becomes fully self-aware, quits its job... and frees its Self. Nice Nate's pulsing synth grooves warp the line between the organic and mechanical.
BWR012 "while U wait" is a mythical collection of beats by kanye BEST, a master robot producer from the future. dig these otherworldly vibes collected in active pursuit of this past decade's fixation on the previous decades' technologies...
1. my perfect world 2. come over 3. prim 4. minitune 5. beechwood boulevard blues 6. lonely hours 7. my heart, your skin
BWR011 "Maybe" further traces Danila Gaji's excursion into the mellifluous depths of electronic dance music. Danila's "Gajistyle" compositions drip with a primal groove energy that is boundless and infectious.

BWR008 "Bread Lives" is C. Scott and Boyfindery combined like Voltron. Beats bang so hard you'll forget that the artists are still in high school. This leftfield swirl of indie hip hop 2step IDM bedroom production giants leaves you wondering why you didn't spend your free time more wisely. Bread lives!
"snowpocalypse now" combines the best of proto-AG AG LADY's teenage-angst prolific writing period with her biggest bleeding-edge futuristic production guns. it is the only surviving compilation of the fictional "snowcore" genre which existed solely in AG AG LADY's imagination circa 1999-2009. these EPs showcase the best existing examples of this crucial chapter in the running narratives of indie and alternative rock and electronic pop music.
"syssi boi" was unruly and reckless! got in over his head "for the fun of it" was a good enough excuse at the time. do we ever grow out of this, or is there another way?
"performance art group" took a slightly different perspective on adolescent angst, alienation, alliterative free association and all those things you thought you left behind...
"the dead letters" were the primal snowcore: ancient anthems bear hefty prophetic responsibilities. out of one voice, many - how better to span the ages than to put the words directly into one's own mouth...
1. Salt and Snow 2. Decadancer 3. Misdirection 4. The Other Night 5. Star Swing 6. Submarine Sunrise 7. Back and Forth
BWR007 "Scars" is Danila Gaji's return from a long and mysterious hiatus. With the measured anticipation of a DJ holding back a drop until the absolute perfect moment, Danila's "gajistyle" imbues seemingly low-key arrangements with a kind of subtle, dangerous passion just waiting to explode... or implode. The borderline-shameless fusion of styles captured on "Scars" oozes out from between the four-on-the-floor groove to deftly transcend the aesthetic limitations of its forebears.
Music by Danila Gaji. Art work by Rachna Radar. Special thanks to Jules Levine and everyone at Broke Whore Records, Panda Deluca, Johnny Jitters, Bengt Alexander, Nissa Holman, Paul Zyla, Rob Babicz, Kate Wymard, Ryan Walsh, all the people I forgot to mention, my son Ivan and my estranged wife Gloria - you all inspire me, each one of you in a different way, some more so than others, but you all do.

ag ag lady's quasi-legal mixtape for may-day 2011. the loudness war is over, but the battle over intellectual property is still highly contestable. this FREE album mashes up an aborted 4-track cassette songwriting session, a collection of decent-quality classic rock track stems that was found in plain sight on the internet somewhere, and the ableton live sessions for "broken television slash mirror" - grab this before we are forced to take it down!

BWR006 "tracks are disappearing" is the third album by ag ag lady. the loudness war continues! on this record, ag ag lady tunes her knobs and faders to a signal that seems to arise from the dystopian future we currently inhabit. the strains of this poison pop radio broadcast from fictional future glitch glam grunge garage boy band "new pilgrim age" were quickly routed into ag ag lady's trusty four track recorder. now armed with cassettes bearing the souls of a small army of producers from the future, ag ag lady continues on her stubborn march...

"remixes are appearing" is a remix album that loosely follows the narrative of "tracks are disappearing." back in 2010, ag ag lady was by all means not the only producer scanning the airwaves for songs to remix. this compilation archives the collected work of the other visionary producers who tuned in to discover the new pilgrim age...

"C. Scott Fitzgerald (Beats vol. 2)" is the second tape from C. Scott, renowned Pittsburgh producer and pun-meister. Recorded in a state-of-the-art bedroom studio, these dust-covered grooves come with a healthy serving of boom bap, guaranteed flavor for days.

BWR005 "I think we're Donora" is the debut album by WALLPLAPPERT. Buried deep within layers of tape noise and circuit-bent meltdown are poignant melodies and heartfelt lyricism. With songs titles like "deceptacon instead of god, or why chrystal castliz is bad for our aesthetic" and "tuttles and gertlez everyone boyz around sometimes, just watch out for elevator shafties and daterape, jay Reatard cappy" no one can ascertain what is real and what is all in your head anymore. In a rare anonymous interview, members of Wallplappert gave forth that "someone found tapes from from basement sessions circa 2010 with some songs on it so here they are hope you like them thanks for listening okay bye now! 66.6 RPM" - we're not sure what that means either!
"Crab Rangroon EP" is Boyfindery's second offering. In an exclusive interview, Boyfindery revealed, "In approaching this album I gave myself a handy, and a set of limits involving the software I was allowed to use in order to create an authentic from-the-heart non-repetitive electronica album. Sadly my best-laid plans were thwarted and I ended up making a 50 minute album full of shit with 25 minutes of great material... This EP is everything from the album that passed quality control." The result? An EP of modest proportions and a lot of ambition. These traxx is some next level snowcore. Take a ride on this Crab Rangroon! "It tastes great! Super treat!"

"Dem Boyz Go" is Boyfindery's debut album. "I spent a focused month-and-a-half in a Pittsburgh Studio Loft drinking ovaltine, playing Turtletoadys, and sampling circuitbent electronics and drum machines into my computer. This album toys with odd time signatures, sometimes having none at all while still being fully focused on textural aesthetics. If an album's concept and process is cooler than its overall aural qualities then it's bullshit and stupid. I love this album like a new puppy. It's a little under a half an hour and it's cheap so give it a little listen!"
"Milkcano (Beats vol. 1)" is C. Scott's first release. The combination of milk and a volcano is much greater than the sum of its parts. Using no more than an old sampler, a cheap synth, and free audio software, Milkcano is sure to delight, amuse, and frighten those that listen. Dust off these next-level high school beats!
1. gonna end up here 2. something important 3. hungry in hell 4. a dream 5. hypnogogic morning 6. without much doubt 7. something else 8. draw this out a little longer 9. something worthless 10. into some kind of spiral
"fuck grooves" is ag ag lady's sophomore album. as ag ag lady is an avid consumer of pornography as well as an electronic musician, it became apparent that these two important daily activities ought to be one and the same. "fuck grooves" is the record of this experiment. not safe for work.

BWR001 "broken television slash mirror" is ag ag lady's debut album. in the midst of a mass media induced paranoid identity breakdown, ag ag lady hurled a hairbrush-that-was-also-a-singalong-microphone through the screen of the living room television. ag ag lady stared into the broken screen. ag ag lady stared back from the screen. these are the melodies that imprinted in ag ag lady's brain as the static cleared. safe for work.
