Alright, it's official. I am starting a little record label called "Vaudeville Records". The first project I would like to work on is a CD of music by members of the Dresden Dolls Brigade. (right now im thinking itll be called "How to Stand Still and Move People", obviously taken from a how to type article Amanda wrote about being a living statue, and lemme know if that is alluding to anything else... but im very flexible right now about title. content comes first!)
This is a serious and thought out project. It will be a professionally produced CD in Jewel Box with booklet and (maybe) a video extra for putting the CD in the computer/DVD player. :)
If you're involved in the Dresden Dolls Brigade, or even if you're just a fan/consider them an influence, here's what I'm looking for:
1.) Name of your band
2.) members names and instruments/whatever. basically, all credits.
3.) how are you involved/connected to the brigade?
4.) website (please no myspace or similar pages unless it's literally all you have)
5.) contact information.
6.) direct link to up to 3 mp3s that you would like to be considered for submission. final drafts hopefully, but if i can raise enough money i might be able to have the entire thing mastered. still, a decent recording. (also, please no myspace links to music. i need direct mp3s)
7.) direct link to html or text files of the lyrics for all submitted songs
8.) OPTIONAL -- links to any art you would like to be considered to be included in the CD booklet. please note artist's name and contact information (even if its you, just for organizations sake).
This CD will likely cost about 2k to produce, because although they are not being produced in quantities of more than roughly 1000, I am serious about this project and it will be a very professional, beautiful example of the art yall create.
All music makers/bands/audio artists/etc who are included on the final arrangement will get a free CD for each member of their band!
So far I have raised 20 bucks. :P if you wanna help out, please donate via paypal or message me for other ways to help.

Thanks so much! Please reply using this forum. I plan to close submissions sometime this summer and have production and distribution by fall. ALL IDEAS AND SUGGESTIONS are welcome! More may be produced based on interest.
All sorts of listen-able art will be taken into consideration! <3

Re: Brigade people in a band -- CD production!
Sun, April 24, 2005 - 7:50 PMalso, i forgot to mention, people who donate 10+ dollars get a free CD as well, and if you donate a ton i'll think of some other magical way to thank you. this is a non-profit project.

Re: Brigade people in a band -- CD production!
Sun, April 24, 2005 - 8:13 PMThis is such a fantastic idea. May I repost this elsewhere? I wass thinking on the brigade forum and also in the livejournal community and of course the doll's forum itself. (that is, if you haven't posted to these places already) -

Mon, April 25, 2005 - 9:47 AMHeh. I am from the Cleveland Brigade (the broken music box act) and some of our group has just started a band. We have one song (not yet recorded) that would be pretty wicked... keep in touch. -

Mon, April 25, 2005 - 11:24 AMWhat a GREAT idea, Kait! I hope that it works out well for you - it's a brilliant way to get an already existing community together and supporting itself. Well done! -

Re: Brigade people in a band -- CD production!
Mon, April 25, 2005 - 4:26 PMAww thanks Casey! I'm especially glad to know you like it! I know there are plenty of musically/other audio talented Brigade people who may not see this. Any ideas to really get it around? -

Re: Brigade people in a band -- CD production!
Mon, April 25, 2005 - 6:02 PMI'd say put it on the DD forum, and pretty much any other related site, with requests and permission for them to repost it anywhere.
I'm a bit frazzled right now, and my synapses seem to have blown a fuse so that'a sll I can come up with, but that would be a really good testing water to see what other people think and perhaps get some great feedback.
Good luck!
