review / plea i sent them:

hello.

so i always stop by the lo-fi high to make my rounds... and what do i find...

i was gonna stop by and tell you this whole spiel about how there was something really special going on here and that somehow i felt like i came across that one album that i missed out on in 1995 that i felt would've benn one of the key experiences that would've changed and saved my life... and well, basically made feel a little better about life because though the words pouring out felt like what my response would've been to that life and what i needed to say in response... so i see your influences... and it said it and i grinned hard as hell... right there and right on... 1995... so basically i was that day where you're between curling up and giving up and trying to stay strong... you may take time to see what i do or not but i put all others first and suffer hard to barely stay alive... i try and try until at about the eight year point i find myself "hiding from friends"... that's where i go and don't have the friends anymore for the pull-out... they've been lost to drugs and death or society and the ones in 1993, 1998, 2003, 2008... well after 2008... no one was there anymore to pull me out... they'd gone where i was or the ones i'd needed and thought were always the best of friends... showed true face so i could see they really didn't care... and were lost from the dreams and reality i thought was always shared and prominent for survival of what made us us and made that ok.... we'll finding this album felt like i found that lost treasure that saved my life two years and a couple decades to late... but what molded this album into existence feels like we came from the same factory of life and it's about time i felt this good about and from an album again... let me know if i can promote it for you and release it on vinyl and cd and i will cover all costs and you have all creative control and get all profit... i just want one in my record collection and i feel there are so many the way things are today... that need one too.

seriously, thanks for the good influences.
it means a lot... thanks for sharing.

later.

p.s. at least i would really like to put "hiding from friends" on the summer sampler (i've been mixing it this week and it would be track 2, on the a side... on the mental record i have laid out and the cd version also. and another song you thing would fit in good with a bunch of everything you've ever stumbled by in your life and found really special and needed to share with friends uncontrollably... since that is all i really do... if it is unbearable and something i would automatically have to go out and buy (like it was still 1995 and people still bought music) and went to the store and found it never existed and was all a figment of some digital imagination like how music is released and leaked now... i'm at the age and point in my life where i'm the grown kid now who can put it in that store so it's there for people like me who really need it and is important to their future and to keep something special a reality that most have lost... friends, connections, reality, emotions, connections through actual personal meeting and contact, sharing music by hand and word of mouth, friends like family... a thing called community, and well basically when some people who said they gave a fuck about you and your life actually showed it in person instead of thinking a tiny text that says "get well soon, miss you. TTYL" cures loss of basically everythang that makes your world tick... that digital clock don't tick and time and reality and love and the future is lost... i'd hate to lose this record in the digital shuffle and anyone who knows me truly will tell you how serious i really am even though mentally and creatively and social skill wise out of the loop and off the walll.. but i do strongly care and feel making this happen is essential to the future only if 100- 200 copies found good homes... it would mean the world to me and probably you too... it's nice to find those that really care.
