DRE_006 / The Dick Riviere Experience

After a long wait, I'm proud to announce the release of our two new records.

DRE_006 and The Dick Riviere Experience were recorded in Steven's house on 27th and 28th of December 2010.

DRE_006 is totally in continuity with the five previous records, it's a record made of instrumental jams with a reduced line-up (Gwendal arrived on second day of the session). The Dick Riviere Experience is, as I said earlier, kind of different because it's the first time we are playing as a full line up si it's to be considered as a jammed demo. I think this record contains some of our best work yet and might be a good base for a proper album and future live shows.

Check it out on our bandcamp profile.

Our first home video, shot during these two days, can be found as a DVD included with the physical release of this record. It's an hour long and includes 3 tracks off The DRE and one off DRE_006. Videos for the first two tracks off The DRE can be seen on our vimeo profile as a teaser for both DVD and album.

First videos

Hello, still haven't got CDrs so still no master = still no release but we just want to give you something to ease the wait and tease you with our very first videos. Everything is nearly done, tracks just need to get normalized and land on a master CD before being ripped and tagged with iTunes and get shared to the world.

These are the videos for the two first tracks off The Dick Riviere Experience which is our very first demo as a full band (it's why it's not called DRE007 and is not a part of the DRExxx project which is now assumed as kind of parallel to The Dick Riviere Experience like, for example, SYR records for Sonic Youth or The Viet Minh for The Black Angels).
The same videos will also be available as part of our first home-video that is finished but will only get physical release as the visual part of The Dick Riviere Experience CD.

Let us know if you're interestred in physical versions of records (including DRE records), we will work something out.

DRE_006 is coming

Before I even say a hell-fucking-o,  I WISH YOU A HAPPY 2011 !!!
(hold on buddies, so talked about apocalypse is only a bit less than 2 years ahead)


Hello, I surprisingly finished all editing earlier than I've expected on last recordings (it took me only two days) and I'm going to do artwork very soon. Waiting for CDrs to arrive home to do a master and start sharing it along all five previous records.

As for the five previous records, I'll be doing two covers (it's all about continuity, dude !) : one made with photos that will look too fuckin "post-rock" to be honest for online release and a psychedelic/pre-school computer-assisted drawing for possible future physical release.


I'm sure you're worried right now, asking yourself why is all that talking only about one record as we made a two days session. Aren't you ?

Well, let's say that what I expected to be DRE_007 is more important than what I thinked it would be, this one is going to be some kind of a "full album lenght" jammed demo because it's our first recording as a full band and not anymore a bunch of "experienced people".

So this record is just going to be called The Dick Riviere Experience (yeah, that's an eponymous record) and will probably be released in a less "I put it there, take it if you want, if you won't I won't mind" way along with a DVD of footage shot during same sessions with really well-done artwork and maybe, for the first time, a track listing with names (hope you've got a boner now !!!).


Keep away from bad trips,
Max
