Working towards Zinefest 2023

Posted by CrankyRabbit - August 11th, 2023


So you may have noticed that I published a song... a rather glum one. Screw EDM, I'm going lo-fi for Zinefest.


Wellington Zinefest is taking place on the first weekend in October (7-8 Oct), so I'm working on a fresh zine for it, as well as working sporadically on a couple of CDs I'll make zines for, and flog them too. Of course I need to keep eyes open for when registrations come available, and actually get on and finish the darn things.


Now I've tried my hand and other body parts at making dance music, but really I started with ideas of emulating Chris Knox, solo and in Tall Dwarfs, with a touch of Wendyhouse, a good twenty years ago. For some reason I find doing so hard. This though... it feels fun and I intend doing more of it. The same cannot be said of the weeks-long Lung Oyster Season I suffered through in July though.


Currently I'm working on the instruments for the second track "Lubberland".Then I'll get the gitbox and ukelele recordings for "Playtime!"


If I manage to finish this EP project (provisional title The Next Small Thing) in time, I'll release it on Bandcamp after the event's over.Depending on how things go, I might even offer physical copies for sale.


Well. Better get on with it. There's a lot to do.
