Mi Infierno I by Jorge Anthony Tapia(OUT TMRW OR THURS)
So, it's finally ready and arriving next week! official release date December 21st! I'm obsessive compulsive about recording, and alot of the music i record doesn't fit into what i do in EYES/MIJA/CHICA X/SECRETS (projects i'm involved with) so, i decided to start releasing "solo" albums. Collaborations and musical exploration with friends and peers is a necessity with me, of course i'm not the only one playing everything....but, these albums are diving very deep into my psychy. I could break down each song, but to you give you a full explanation of what the albums will sound like, the definitions will reside only in individual critiques...I will be releasing a new album monthly throughout 2011. These are not just "musical pissings" alot of these tracks i've spent up to years toying with, without a proper outlet to reveal, or waste the time of the listener. Confidence has finally set in, and i'm ready to divulge this mathematical entree'. You can order the limited edition CD from me at NAILINTHECOFFINRECORDS@HOTMAIL.COM or download it for free at http://www.nitetrotter.com/ ...i'd also like to add that the album artwork is a collaborative effort between me and Stefania Cristina Emanuela Oldani (aka Hillel Zavala), now i'm sure im in trouble for giving out her real name...but, that's who she is!

hischool was fun, because i was busy doin art and a tape label...and making babies.
A. notice not website's or emails
B.notice i put my phone number!(dork, who wants to call you to talk to you about your tape label!)
this interview is just completely absurd. Let me paint a picture for you...It's 1999, youre obsessed with Vermiform records, you're 17...and think youve got it all figured out, after all your efforts of trying to jade yourself and look cool..you find youre just jaded.
my cousin Johnny Cluney took this pic(and spelled Xiola's name wrong) this is from a xeroxed picture zine he did. in early 2000's. yep, baby Chica X right there. and Johnny is now the drummer singer for Mondo Drag!
Remember IGNITE THE WILL, well the bassist did this skate zine a lonnnnnng time ago! this is the cover i designed for it.
Me and Amber did a zine called "OH LORD....", we recieved ALOT of hatemail, got a decent amount of recognition. It read like COMETBUS mixed with a Vermiform records add and some speckles of a Charles Bronson song.
again, just dumb..i guess i had a good idea, but when i try to say it in a sly way, it's still just dumb.
armchair revolution was my cousin johnnys zine. it was good, creative, positive, and visually groundbreaking. he was very anal with his art, making it come off very clean for us spending countless hours at kinko's, i chose a different approach, cluttered, sloppy. controled chaos. which is still the same theory i work with.

XMESS FEST 3!
This is the 3rd annual year of XMESS fest Jason Whitmarsh(aka Nitco solo artist SINJOTHRAWMASH) and to a small extent, I, have put together this fest to gain canned good's for those less unfortunate...the 2 prior years Whit donated whatever money was made, to MIXTAPES! a very very poor, independent record store and venue...that is now defunct. This year the money is going to a city funded place. yep. the rich get richer and the poor die. COME ON DOWN and fake smiling with me!
Scotch Tapes Logo!
Scotch Tapes is one of the best noise/experimenatal lables that is persistent in putting out challenging music over the past couple of years, he will be releasing a few EYES cass. and lathes pretty soon, i was given the oppurtunity to do a logo for him. and, after giving him a handfull of choices, he chose the one the one that also stuck out to me!!

Old Art...
Before i photoshopped, I copy and pasted, and used rub-off letters, xeroxography! this is a few things i did in the early 2000's, ill post more of this stuff as i find it. found this stuff in a nasty mess in my basement. I really miss how organic i used to be.(and my infatuation with Sam McPheeters and Neil Burke is way too obvious here)
