The Baltimore Brain Benders - The Mission

A Charlie2300 Production, fuck yeah
I make no bones about this. I"m on a mission - a mission to bring MT6 and the live psych scene in Baltimore to the attention of those that have yet to know what it' about - to be initiated. MT6 are, almost unbelievably, totally unknown outside of their own patch. That will change if I have anything to do with it. Simples. "Space Madness" is the initial release within the "Baltimore Brain Bender" sessions, and each release constitutes a nominally themed showcase of MT6 artists.... and the MT6 family. Because that's what it's like.... and I'm a Brit.

Why MT6? Because the live psych scene in Baltimore is SO alive, so out there. It's like mainlining adrenaline. I want this music out there, it deserves to be heard; this could just be that shot in the arm that leads you down the yellow brick road to MT6 (Psych Central, Planet Earth). My job is just starting.

The Human Host Movie is Mike Apichella's cinematic debut, a self produced featurette inspired by the performance art and music made by the multi-media collective Human Host which was founded 10 years ago. In addition to marking Apichella's debut as a producer/director, this movie is also the first comprehensive video documentation of Human Host's work. The world premiere of The Human Host Movie will occur on sunday December 9th at 7 p.m. at Goodbye Blue Monday in Bushwick, Brooklyn, New York. Brian Yankou (of Bronx band No One & The Somebodies) and Brooklyn based filmaker Alex Rubin were both involved in making 'The Human Host Movie' - prior to the main attraction, Yankou and Rubin will screen two of their own short subjects.

Happy Holidays to everyone! MT6 Records and MT5 Tapes are finishing off 2011 with 7 New Releases!!

RED RED RUBY "We dream alone in the womb" C60
Somewhere beyond the fog, peering out from the edge of a sun-baked field of corn, where silence is as golden as the kernel itself...there lies red red ruby. As the evening dew hugs a wind kissed, turn of the century headstone and not one blade of grass dares to grow out of place...there lies red red ruby.
Red Red Ruby "Hornet" MP3



CHIEF POKAWA "WASTE OF TIME" - CDR
Chief Pokawa releases his 10th Album in his 10 Year Career. Lots of instrumentation used on this release including Synths, Drums, Electric and Acoustic Guitars, and Vocals and Lyrics that keep you drawn in. Track 2 MP3



CAVEMEN!! "RISE UP BEAST" - CDR
Cavemen is the long running collaborative band/duo of Chief Pokawa and Newagehillbilly. Songs are collaborated and recorded together, and also through the passing back and forth of wav. files. Both members utilize their vast collection of instruments and recording equipment. The result is a multi genre mash up!!
Rise Up Beast MP3



NEW MYSTICAL TROUBADORS "III" - CDR
New Mystical Troubadors are showing much musical maturity and growth on their 3rd Full Length. Started as a songwriting collaboration by Dave Gibson(Bad Liquor Pond) and Matt Perenski(Agrarians). This recording captures the influences of Pysche Rock and Anti-Folk.

ZIND "UFO IDENTIFICATION MADE EASY"- CDR
Electronic Sci Fi Rock, mixed with Ambient and Noise, makes for a great soundtrack.
Gone Pups MP3



IED-IUD "S/T" - CDR
This trio of baltimore underground luminaries(members of ZIND, New Flesh, Vincent Black Shadow) create an aural assault of shrieking guitars, pulsing synths, gritty beats, and screaming distant vocals. 2nd Full Length of 2011!!
Frames MP3



NEWAGEHILLBILLY / RED RED RUBY - SPLIT CD
Newagehillbilly kicks this split release off with trumpet blasts overtop pounding overdriven drums. Red Red Ruby changes the pace without missing a beat by track 2, with the dark americana folk track "Hornet, Wasp, or Yellow Jacket". The rest of the EP mixes experimental drone, avant acoustic pieces, and more...
Newagehillbilly "Clydesdale" MP3
