Lorca-Pillow

Lorca/Pillow
5 Pezzi Facili (1/5)
UMB14 - CDR, 2003

First of a series of 5 split EP, Cinque Pezzi Facili (1/5) features contrinutions from Lorca and Pillow. "Some Kind of Payoff" is a collection of five mellow, melancholic and minimal songs, in an ethereal and diffused atmosphere. Pillow's " She takes you, She leaves you" softly walks through some sad acoustic tunes, in which it can bebreath the dust from behind the corner and the yellow light from the fluorescent lamps outside on the road.

mr60-frozen fracture

Mr60/The Frozen Fracture
5 Pezzi Facili (2/5)
UMB15 - CDr, 2006

The second split of the 5 Pezzi Facili series, features the contribution from Mr60, and The Frozen Fracture. Mr .60's "Concepto:desperato" is a sort of metaphoric journey in which the band explores the vast compositive possibility given by ability of the members to alternate between difference instruments. The Frozen Fracture contribution "Rare Earths Noble Gases" is also a time-travel journey. This rather random prit-stick glued brick-a-brak disaster is the ultimate experience of a musical project failure.

Are You Safe?(1/5)
UMB19 - CD, 2003

"..at the end of the day, this is an intriguing and oblique indie-rock, leaded by the guitars and a dreaming female voice, effective in sketching delightly non conventional melodies...[...].. In other words, even if the band is moving a very well defined environment, it manages to do it with an enviable grace and a number of unexpected solution, giving birth to songs that, in their freshness, are so easy to stick to your mind.."

The Baijkal EP

My Shell
The Baijkal EP
UMB23 - CDr, 2003

The Baijkal EP is the first full release of My Shell for Under My Bed, following a string of contributions to our compilation collection. The record is somewhat literally no-fi, as the audio quality is dreadful, despite careful mastering by My Dear Killer. Nevertheless, it is a brilliant piece of intimistic song-writing, which brings My Shell within the finest contemporary folk composer. We are absolute enthusiastic, and are impatiently awaiting for a more complete and, just a little bit, polished, collection of songs from this outstanding one-man-band.

Jeffrey Fields
Graceland EP
UMB24 - CDr, 2004

Having spent time in several rock and post-punk bands in the 90s, Jeffrey began writing and recording his own songs in early 2003. Recording mostly at home on a limited budget, and even more limited equipment, Jeffrey wears his influences on his sleeve while maintaining his own unique lyrical vision and melodic eccentricities. With a songwriting style often compared to Grant Lee Buffalo and The Jayhawks, Jeffrey found a fan in Thomas Heath, owner and operator of Indiana's Tract Records
