Deer Tick Announces Tour “Campaign” Includes Sasquatch Festival, Newport Folk Festival Dates
I am not sure what the words Divine Providence mean but my guess is Deer Tick would be interested in promoting this. So Deer Tick is embarking on a tour modeled after an election campaign. This comes complete with yardsigns that are available here. They will give an unreleased MP3 to fans who post pictures of the yardsigns on the band’s facebook. The MP3 we posted is on Deer Tick’s ep Tim which a limited 200 copy pressing 10 inch will be available at the band’s shows and here.

MP3: Nana B – Crazy Baby (Produced By Jay Swifa of Fly Union)
MP3: Nana B- Crazybaby Prod. By Jay Swifa (of_Fly.Union)
Nana B sings a song I think most people in Columbus can relate with . You’ve been hanging out with someone for 8 months. You need to get rid of them. But they don’t take the hint. I think this especially works for Spring. You started dating someone in the winter cause that’s a natural thing to do. The nice weather hits about the same time you realize they are insane. You just need them to get the away from you.
Jay Swifa of Fly Union provides smooth production for “Crazy Baby” so the break-up doesn’t seem super harsh. Real talk always goes better with melody.

Listen: Blueprint – The Making of Adventures in Counter-Culture: Chapter 03 “Automatic”
Blueprint wrote a book detailing the making of his album “The Adventures in Counter-Culture”. Today, Print uploaded a soundcloud link of himself reading the chapter on making “Automatic”. It details how the song was created after he took a vacation on the heels of the ending of So What Wednesdays which was a weekly Hip Hop event that was formed in the aftermath of the deaths of some key Columbus Hip Hop figures and close friends. He also goes through the process of learning new recording skills after switching from sampling to synths. So basically, this chapter is about taking a break to spawn artistic growth after a rough period.
