Today marks an important day for me. A few months ago I heard a song from Ross Wariner, one of the principle members of Kindercastle, and found myself quite smitten. I inquired to him about the possibility of "putting out" the record in a limited form. While I'm not interested in running a full fledged record label I am intrigued by the idea of getting music out to the masses that otherwise would not be heard.

And with that, I found myself with yk records and the first release from Uncle Skeleton, Pancho Chumley. The album is an instrumental, electronic and orchestral blend of a myriad of influences. To me, this album should be in regular rotation for everyone's forthcoming summer - it just invokes that good feeling.

The album is now available both physically and digitally.

• Limited Edition CD - limited run of 250 discs with high quality Arigato Pak style packaging from Stumptown Printers; features the artwork of Jason Severs and, honestly, feels quite nice. I could go on a long rant about how much passionate I feel about making sure physical releases are worth owning but I will save it - just know that this one is absolutely worth owning a physical version of.
• Digital Download - I've put the entirety of the album up for free digital download because the ultimate goal here is to get the music heard and enjoyed. Bandcamp offers a ton of formats so whatever suits your fancy is there for you to enjoy.

Many thanks to Ross for letting me put this out. It's an experiment that I hope works and will lead me to be able to put out more (though, regardless of this success, I will be putting out more).

Please spread the word on this! I would love for as many people to hear this album as humanly possible.
