Hi All,

The Reverse Engine netlabel is putting together a comp called Heaventone. The goal of the comp is to explore the sonic possibilities of the steel guitar, particularly the pedal steel guitar (but lap steel is ok too).

Possible sounds include, but are certainly not limited to:
- solo pedal steel
- experimental music
- IDM / electronic / cut-up / glitch
- classic country
- folk
- indie pop
- lo-fi
- turntablism / hip hop
- Hawaiian
- skronk
- ambient
- field recordings/found sounds
- space age bachelor pad / retro
- anything you can come up with

The resulting collection of sounds will demonstrate the many sonic possibilities of steel guitar, and will be released with a Creative Commons license as a free download on the Reverse Engine netlabel, hosted in the netlabels collection on Archive.org. Send all submissions as email attachments or download URLs to: reverseengine[AT-SIGN]gmail[DOT]com

We’d love to have some ccmixter artists involved.

Thank you,
Dave M-H, Curator
Reverse Engine Records
