Details:
The Electric Crayon Set is a psychedelic brainchild of the finnish musicmaker, guitarist and singer, Timo Paakko.
The band first got together as "Jennie Tropik Dream" and recorded only a demo of two songs at the start of 1999.
The next incarnation, which is also the current line-up recorded the bands debut 45: "The Hardest Thing/Demons In Disquise".
Originally intended as a demo only, the songs caught the ear of the directors at the megatrendy mod label, Detour Records, and in April 2000 it got released as a limited edition of 300 copies (DINT004).
The single was well-received all around the globe and was quickly sold out.
The band started working on the forthcoming "One Man´s Trash..." album in January 2000, the recordings spanning the whole year 2000.
It is a concept album, all songs loosely fit on a storyline and the actual tracks tied with sound-effects.
No music style is unfamiliar to this bunch: you will find fine examples of Soul, R&B, Acid-Folk and Paisley-Pop among others on this fan-tas-tic record! Power Guitar chords in the vein of the Creation and the Who, layered with Hammond B-3 and gorgeous melodies, not forgetting one of the tightest rhythm units in today´s music.
The record itself actually is a finnishamerican https://www.tradebit.com Hitchcock from Austin, Texas is responsible of many of the lyrics on the album, including the superb title track, and the beautiful cover painting is a lovejob of Mad John Nemec from New York City.
The initial pressing will be 500 copies, CD https://www.tradebit.com will also be the inauguration of a new label, SoundHawk.
