VINYL SUBSCRIPTION…….
PLEASE DON’T POST THIS SUBSCRIPTION info on any newsgroups or message boards. Allow Asian Man friends and family first crack at this.

Let’s get started.
It’s all about the VINYL SUBSCRIPTION today.

We sent out emails to all our current members with a chance to renew their membership. If you are a current member and didn’t get that email, just keep reading.

If you have no idea what this vinyl subscription deal is, then this is for you. :)
You will receive the next TEN full lengths on 12” vinyl, or two 7”s (which equal one full length). So it could be six full lengths and eight 7”s or seven full lengths and six 7”s. Make sense?
But to sweeten the pot we will make sure you get at least 12 full lengths(or equivalent of) and maybe even more?? :)

If there is a rare color variant, then you will be the first one to get that version. Your orders will ship first. You will also receive free stuff with each release like posters, stickers, patches. The membership will include a full color classic asian man t-shirt design. And who knows what other surprises.

Basically, my goal is to make those who get a membership freak out at the end by thinking “Holy moly!! I got so much good stuff for such an amazing price”.

We put out tons of records every year, so you will be sure to get stuff constantly with no worries of us ever going out of business. We started putting records out in 1996. We’re almost 18 years old(almost legal). HOOORAY!!

So many good records coming out including Andrew Jackson Jihad double live 12”, Nothington/Downtown Strutts 7”(ltd to 500 one time pressing), The WILD “Dreams Are Maps” 12”, Maguma Taishi 7”(feat. Paddy from Dillinger Four and Mike Park ltd to 500 one time pressing), and many many more plus some super duper surprises.

At the end of the deal, if you don’t like what you got just return everything and I’ll refund your money(as long as things aren’t damaged). I’m serious. Okay, Asian Man family and friends you get first crack at this and then I’m posting this up on message boards and the world.

—-This is for USA customers only. If you live outside of the USA please contact us and we’ll figure out an appropriate shipping price to accommodate you.—-

Please click this link to order. The total price is $100 + $40 shipping.

This will be limited to 300 members. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me at mikeparkmusic@gmail.com

Be well.
peace, mike park

“BIRTHDAY SUITS:
“Wonderland America” b/w “Sepia Yeah / Kiki Kaikai”: 7”
The Birthday Suits, a duo of Japanese guys located in Minnesota (Hideo’s ex-Sweet Jap), are like an explosion of origami: Tight, precise aural folds. Paper’s just not paper any more. It’s got volume, mass, shape. Ducks and swans and shit. Sound’s not just sound any more: distortion/melody, noise/silence. Stop/fucking go! Buckminster Fuller and Stockhausen would be proud. Art makes sense to me when it’s loud as shit, sounds like it’s crashing through the front of the house, and then hands me a cup of noodles. Oh, my pretty face. Totally hits the spot. –Todd Taylor”
