Secret Chiefs 3.
Yes, seemingly dormant for long periods, this dragon is about to begin
to whip its tail like never before:
A slew of SC3 related 7" records slated for Fall.
[ More info... ]
A SC3 retrospective CD with bonus rare tracks etc. gears us up for "Book of Souls".
[ More info... ]
In all, around around eight SC3 related releases slated for Fall, and
it's just the beginning!
Take a peek at what's in store for 07 here: [ Read more... ]
Still waiting on musician availability for a SC3 mini-tour of the eastern U.S. this Fall. Cross the fingers! The West Coast tour w/Sleepytime in January definitely went spectacularly, and it'd be good to make it happen again in that band-member configuration once more before the shapeshifting Draconian Chiefdom wrests itself off the Pole, tearing the Tzimtzum a new Borea in Septentrion 07. What we mean is that the SC3 will definitely be on the road behind the new album (early 2007) in a myriad of configurations -- you'll want to keep an eye on this website to know which one(s) are headed your way...
Sleepytime Gorilla Museum / Estradasphere:
Congratulations are in order both for Sleepytime Gorilla Museum and
for Estradasphere (as well as for The End Records, who have had the
good fortune of signing both of these bands!). We give %100 support to
both bands moving on to the bigger and greener pastures at The End;
and we give The End salutations for being indeed a great label with a
vision perfectly suited to this insane music. When WoM comes upon
fellow musicians who deserve more notice and success than they are
getting, and we have a hand in helping them find it, we definitely
take special pride in that! Besides helping some friends, we feel
we've fulfilled our charter as a label here... good luck to everyone
involved!
Things do have a way of turning out the way they should - and nothing
could make that more clear than perfect timing! Read here to find out
about the long-developing shift in basic values at Mimicry Recordings,
now made completely official by the launching of these two great bands
from our overly-modest lily-pad.

And above all, thanks for paying attention to what we're up to around here...
