Excellent postcards! I especially like the one on the top.

I started recording "noise music" in early 2004, completely unaware of any "scenes" or other individuals doing this sort of thing. A lot of lo-fi recordings on a portable tape player, oftentimes guitar or bass feedback drone and delay.

In 2008, I started putting out my own releases. I had by then given up on being in any rock bands with other people and stuck to improvised solo recordings on portastudios. Between then and 2011, I think only dozen people had heard any of my releases. And then I started Hell Garbage, where I started connecting with people a lot more.

At the end of 2012, I played my first Noise show, at St. Pete Noise Fest 5. I originally only did it on a whim and had no intention of playing live much after that. Lo and behold, the set had a good enough reception to enable me to seek out and play even more.

Fast-forward to June 2014, where I had booked my own gig for the first time. Uncle Lou's in Orlando had dates available, and again on a whim, I took a shot at booking. It went well enough, surprisingly good turnout for a Wednesday night.

2 years later, I moved into a house in Lakeland. Initially because it was within walking distance of my workplace...but a recent show fell through and I thought "why don't we just move the show here? As long as it's over by a certain time...I mean there's plenty of parking space..." The show was a success and nobody complained!

AND THEN MY MIND SPLOT OPENNNN

From this moment forward the Electronic Cottage website will primarily be an online magazine for the publication of lengthy and in-depth articles, essays, and interviews.
For those of you who use Facebook I have created an Electronic Cottage Group, which will be a casual social gathering place of the EC Community, where EC people can meet, share artwork and news of current projects and releases.
The EC website will continue as before, and I encourage those of you who do not use Facebook to use the FORUM page here at the EC website to post miscellaneous thoughts and personal updates.
The website and this EC Facebook Group are two separate but connected entities of the greater EC Community.
