Metal on Metal!!

  • November 8, 2010 5:21 am

Here’s the first record in the Metal on Metal!! series. Scrap Iron’s epic metal masterpiece Shovel. Metal music as it was meant to be – on metal.

It’s guitar and drums. You can hear a bit of it here.

This is the prototype. The finished version will have flash memory circuitry built into it so that you can plug a usb cable directly into the record and download the songs!

Shovel

The music is on the front and the back is etched copper artwork. Beautiful!

The Live Lathe Series – Joanie Leon Guerrero

  • September 11, 2010 8:51 pm

These are part of the live lathe series. An artist is invited to stop by and record a single. The catch – each and every side of each and every record is a LIVE-TO-LATHE recording. No two records are alike! Each one is a one of a kind master recording. We made 10 of these on Sept. 11, 2010.

Joanie Lathe

As you most likely will never get one of the original ten, you can listen to Boatman and Alamo online at your leisure.  Joanie Leon Guerrero wrote and performed both songs. I think these were takes 6 and 7.
