Pause/Record

Yo Yo Yo, um, yeah.

'Why, why is this person posting on Mess + Noise?'
'well it's your fault for being part of the denizens of Australia's most popular bitch fest music discussion world, M+N. And hey, if it's any consolation to you to have to read another post from someone somewhere trying to whore their music to you, let's at least make this post entertaining'...

Let's talk business, I've got a nice plastic chair, a cheap suit, a disgusting mustache, a cigar and I'd you to check out this great band I'm in.. pause/record.. y'know that nervous moment when the record and pause button are pressed down and you're about to release the pause button, try and snatch some magic out of the damp air, cool moment, we live for it. Our noise is pretty free, yeah I like that 'pretty free'.

Look, we like you, we like many of the people who are here, and we think you'll dig our particular library of work (whoah, steady horse of dignity). Really this is hard for me, It's like throwing my heart against the wall and having it run down the wall only to be lapped up by some really ugly puppy, and then the walls are cardboard and they all sort of fold in around you like origami, making a really ugly origami puppy.

Anyway, I was hoping you could pop by our embodiment of evil page –

www.myspace.com/pauserecord

  • try it, if you go there on your computer, you may feel pure evil pour into your hand and up your arm making it feel quite sore, but you can listen to some of our music - don't bother listening through your shitty laptop speakers tho, that's wrong - we are getting more intense and important and better than Mariah Carey every new noise we make.

love

Pause/Record  said about 2 years ago:

...mate.. we got this exact same email... doesn't seem to hard to whore yourself!
sounds like a load of bullshit to me!


Pause/Record  said about 2 years ago:

That's a good point Frog - thanks for mentioning it!

Seems I spent up all my intelligence today thinking up the post and not concentratin' on the link.


Pause/Record  said about 2 years ago:

Sorry BBW for hitting you up twice with it! And yeah, it is a load of bullshit! If I had a mustache it wouldn't be, but until I can grow one, well, it's all inaccurate!


trafficsounds  said about 2 years ago:

well it worked on me. i checked out your myspace because of your almost-too-clever blurb but i really like what i'm hearing. tidal loop especially. where is this 'swarm' piece that the others mention? i'd like to hear that.


billybarwang  said about 2 years ago:

i still like the music


Pause/Record  said about 2 years ago:

Thanks BBW - we (honestly) really don't like doing this sort of thing, so figured the ultra aggressive approach was better than shy and retiring, as hopefully it'd make people check it out, perhaps even out of spite. So yeah, all of the original post (at the top) is 100% shite.

Traffic Sounds - Thanks for yr comments - much appreciated. Swarm is Tidal Loop (renamed it a little while back), so yep, you've heard it! :-)


Angelic  said about 2 years ago:

whaere is the link? ho hum...


Pause/Record  said about 2 years ago:

Hope that works this time. If not, we're not worth checking out.

trafficsounds  said about 2 years ago:

ok right, tidal loop is seriously great. i listened to that 3 times in a row. nice one! i don't mind shameless plugging, bands totally shit at promoting themselves are no better really.


Angelic  said about 2 years ago:

I don't hate it. that's a good thing.


Pause/Record  said about 2 years ago:

Thanks for sorting that link out for us! And thanks for the words.


Pause/Record  said about 2 years ago:

Two new ''songs'' up should anyone be interested (?)


runoutgroove  said about 2 years ago:

yeah, i like that tidal loop track.


Pause/Record  said about 2 years ago:

Cheers Rog...


adamdmills  said about 2 years ago:

didn't i hear something about a release on sound&fury* sometime soon...?


Pause/Record  said about 2 years ago:

Yeah ha, and we're damn excited about it Adam! We can't wait to work w/ you.


Pause/Record  said about 2 years ago:

Another new track up on myspace if anyone needs some 1am music to put them to sleep!

www.myspace.com/pauserecord

(or see trafficsounds link above)


adamdmills  said about 2 years ago:

pause/record is dead. long live mirrored silver sea!


adamdmills  said about 1 year ago:

the debut album from mirrored silver sea (formerly pause/record), continual ascension, will be out in october on sound&fury records. limited to 75 hand-numbered CD-R copies, it combines shoegazing ambience and glistening piano with distortion-drenched beats and noisy-as-hell guitar. in it, we've detected traces of everything from library tapes and liars to elegi and my bloody valentine. if you were listening to utility fog last night, you may have heard a couple of tracks. if not, you can check out flowers of eden right here.

for more information, visit the website.
