I am happy to announce a new Electronic Cottage Compilation! The purposes of the compilation will be: - to create a stronger connection among EC community members! - and to promote Electronic Cottage to the outside world! To participate you must have a Personal Page on Electronic Cottage.
Your recording must be no longer than two minutes and must be new, exclusive, and created for this compilation. You must submit your recording by the deadline of July 12, 2018. Your recording must be submitted in WAV file format via email, Google Drive or WeTransfer. I will also allow submissions on CDR, cassette, and microcassette. Your track must be submitted using your NAME ON EC as the ARTIST NAME. When you submit your track, please state the track title. The compilation will be available on CDR and download on my Bandcamp site for a minimum of $1.00 and the buyer will have the option to pay more. - Money from download sales will be used to reimburse me for the costs of producing the compilation. Each participant will receive one free CDR copy of the compilation, and five free download codes so that you can share it with friends. Participants can purchase additional CDRs at the cost of materials and postage. I think that this is a perfect way for all of us here at EC to get to know each other better and to make new connections with our friends here! CDRs will be dubbed in my home on high-quality Taiyo Yuden blank CDRs. Each CDR will come packaged in a transparent soft plastic CD sleeve, with a full color printed-at-home cover, and simple black and white printed label. This will be the fourth Electronic Cottage Compilation. The first three were issued in the early 1990s.

Hello Jay! I am glad that you like the compilation project! It will be a good way to create connections between the EC members, since we all come from so many different backgrounds, nationalities, and age groups. This way we will be able to identify a name on EC with a specific piece of sound art, and hopefully new connections will grow from that.

Think of your track for the EC Compilation as your way to introduce yourself to the other EC Community members.
