about

Every teenage musician does something very experimental.

Pilleater had many different projects in his youth. First, there was "DJ Qudo," a chiptune musician that used the Gameboy Camera. And then there was "Kalgerfic," which was a conceptual glitch album using the Mario Paint program. And then came along "IS0," an immature Merzbow project. And finally, a drummer in a shitty hardcore band (it was so bad, only snippets are on this compilation).

But perhaps pilleater's most favorite project was, “Trashkore™.”

Trashkore™ was a failed digital hardcore act. Influenced by Atari Teenage Riot and Realicide, it didn’t go anywhere.

“I remember the original name was ‘My Melody,’ based on My Life As A Teenage Robot,” pilleater writes.

“I really liked cartoons and somewhat disturbing electronic music, so I thought, 'why not mixed both?' But I was too shy and nothing happened. I had a live show as DJ Qudo, but not Trashkore™. It was just a pipe dream.”

For the first time, this cassette is proof that the Trashkore™ project, and many others, live up to it's fame. All the music was made between the ages of 15 to 19.

Side B features tracks that were recently created by the mysterious Pilleater project, “Simpson Street Productions.” Lo-fi, Leftfield inspired beats created on a Moog Mother-32 and a Roland TR-8. As well as featuring some lost Trashkore™ tracks.

It’s hard to explain this release, but there is at least 38 minutes of music on each side and may cause hypnogogic feelings.

The artwork features Donkey Kong having terrible visions of the sad penguin race in Super Mario 64. Art by Aaron Silao.

Limited run of 30.
