Summer Jams Compilation

This is a compilation of summer songs that my friend Morgan put together when she asked her friends to write and record a summer jam. Here's what she has to say about it:

For maybe five years, maybe more, I had been talking about doing a summer jam challenge- getting my friends who write songs to write and record “the ultimate summer jam,” whatever that means to them. It finally happened. There are 15 songs on here, most of them are by friends in or from Michigan (since I see them more often and could bug them about finishing their songs, I guess). I kept pushing the deadline back, mostly because I didn’t have any ideas for my own summer jam, but then my friends Jeremy and Ryan and I came up with something (the third song on here) so I could finally put this thing together. A few people said they had something in the works that they couldn’t finish in time, so maybe there will be a volume 2?

Morgan's track by Psykedisco totally fucking rules, too. There's a little something for everyone on this diverse collection. This is solid evidence that there are super great things going on in MIchigan right now.

Tyvek-Cauldron Born

Killer lo-fi garage punk from Detroit. Bought this CD-r from 'em on tour a couple years ago. Kevin's guitar style is so raw that it hurts. If I had balls, I would strive to play guitar like this. This album has alternate versions of some songs on their two major releases like "Air Conditioner" and "Hey Una." I'm really partial to the song "Flowers."
