Dr. Toast – “The Entanglement EP” (2008)

March 25th, 2008

Released simultaneously with “The Wave Function“, this EP contains four tracks of evolving textures with skronked-up basslines and slow, funky breakbeats – harder-edged than what’s on the album, but still with the right amount of bliss factor dialed in.

You can pick it up now at falseprofit.addictech.com, the new False Profit Records minisite at Addictech! The EP is 4 tracks, 23:01, in high-quality MP3 or lossless FLAC/WAV formats.

Also, be sure to get on Dr. Toast’s mailing list to get updates about live performances and find out when the album is available online.

False Profit Records IPO

March 1st, 2008

False Profit, LLC is proud to present our newest venture: False Profit Records.

This new label, like everything False Profit does, is powered by people who are seeking better metrics for measuring success. Therefore, we keep no monetary profit.  Our purpose is to support artists, and encourage artists’ mutual support, while expanding their ability to reach a larger audience. We accomplish this by sharing knowledge and expertise about music production and the music business.

False Profit Records: A Sound Investment

Artists can offer their music for free, for sale, or for donations, and it can be Creative Commons-licensed or copyrighted.  We think each of these options makes sense in different situations.  False Profit Records supports artists in doing whatever they feel works best for them and their music. Without the high cost of trying to make money as a record label, we can focus on what’s most important: Great music.
