Artist:	DROP THE LIME
Title:	Killy 123
Label:	TIGERBEAT6 RECORDS
Format:	12"
Price:	$8.50
Catalog #:	MEOW 087EP

"As its playful title suggests, Killy 123 is a move away from the morbid and dark releases proliferating in today's IDM scene. Taking a goofier approach to melody, these upbeat tracks are mixed clean and loud for maximum dance-floor appeal. In 'The Days' and 'Amarcord Gold,' big band remixes and squirty sound riffs tangle within the context of floor-thumping anthems, inviting consideration of the relationship between old and new forms of dance music. 'Rad Girl Killy' and 'Cutty Throats' revolve around the empty spaces in sound, allowing the main rhythms to unravel over time, balanced by tickly, eerie melodies. Each side ends with melancholic, beatless tracks that express the energy and emotion put into the creation of the harder, dancier tracks on the EP."

Title:	This Means Forever
Label:	TIGERBEAT6 RECORDS
Format:	CD
Price:	$15.00
Catalog #:	MEOW 111CD

"This Means Forever, Drop the Lime's debut album, invites all the pop stars of the world to this apocalyptic dance-off. Please step up Mr. Timberlake, Mrs. Spears, Madonna, Usher, even that guy Wade Robson, to 'dance or die.' DTL's hardcore Italo-killy sound nods to breaks from the days of rave, with timeless time stretches, freestyle squirts, and vocal sweeps sung by himself and guest ghetto-tech MC, Minty. Spending the majority of his childhood spinning classic jungle artists like The House Crew, Congo, and DJ Hype, and singing in punk bands, DTL today combines the two hyper styles of music. Snares freeze in empty spaces while growling basslines, trumpets, cellos and guitars swoon through epic cut and paste archives of sound. With elements of hardcore punk, vocals shout like Fugazi and flirt like Frank Sinatra."

Title:	Refixed
Label:	TIGERBEAT6 RECORDS
Format:	12"
Price:	$8.50
Catalog #:	MEOW 121EP

"The best tracks from Luca Venezio's (aka Drop the Lime's) debut album given the proper dance or die funky techno treatment by today's most interesting techno, acid and house producers. Kid606 turns 'Shaken' into a writhing dual 303 acid track; Eats Tapes pitch down the vocals and make a serious bootybass bouncer; Soft Pink Truth replaces all the vocals but keeps the same lyrics on the most disco-friendly remix; while Gold Chains and Original Hamster manipulate the originals into their own unique styles."

Title:	Shot Shot Hearts
Label:	TIGERBEAT6 RECORDS
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	MEOW 130CD

"Shot Shot Hearts is Grime / Dubstep-influenced Breakcore and Punk at its most anthemic and passionate level; a circus of colliding underground scenes run by the ringleader himself, Drop the Lime. Your city is haunted, and you want to go out and play with the ghosts, wrestle with the sounds of the dark night. Drop the Lime is here to lead you and keep you safe. Shot Shot Hearts captures the feeling of the blistering cold of torrential downpours and the spooky fog that soothes when the storm is done. This dangerously energetic EP sounds like pop songs after a machete attack: distorted shuffle kicks, pyschobilly slap back delayed vocals, spooky harmonies and ghostly guitars."
