Fri@Marx Cafe: DIY archivist/hyped2death guy Chuck Warne

[Ricky0710]

In keeping with the tradition of past shameless plugs on this here board...
 
 The sheer entertainment/educational value of this Friday evening's "We Fought the Big One" post-punk dj night at the Marx Cafe borders on the ridiculous. And that's a good thing!
 
 My dj partner Brandon and I are chuffed to bits to be welcoming DIY archivist & hyped2death label founder/owner Chuck Warner behind the turntable booth! Calling Westminster, Mass., his home these days, Chuck might be the world's foremost expert on DIY and U.K. post-punk. For years, Chuck's famed hyped2death label has released on cd for the first time a mindboggling assortment of bands, drawing on a huge range of obscure vinyl releases and cassettes from "back in the day." Chuck is someone whose passion and knowledge for this music is simply unparralled---he has worked slavishly to ensure his hyped2death releases offer the highest possible sound quality and the most thorough of liner notes. His releases have drawn critical acclaim from The Wire (Byron Coley is a huge fan), Bob Stanley (yup, the St. Etienne dude) at The Guardian, Uncut magazine, Spin, Record Collector, the list goes on and on...
 
 We highly encourage you to visit Chuck's website, where you can read more about his label and releases: http://www.hyped2death.com/
 
 Chuck will also be bringing a limited number of hyped2death releases with him this Friday. If you're lucky, you might be able to snap one up! Stop by the dj booth, say hello to the man and inquire within---trust us, you'll be glad you did!
 
 And as always, the Marx Cafe will be offering a tasty selection of libations to whet your summer whistle. We're convinced that Chimay and DIY post-punk is going to replace "popcorn and coke" as the next, must-have combo anyday now.    
 
 Right then, hope to see you Friday evening!

i might go to this, the shivvers reissue was amazing

[Ricky0710]

Might go? Dude, it's Chuck Warner! The man lives in Westminster, Massachuchettes. Don't know how often he makes it to DC but I don't think it's all that often. Speaking of The Shivers, my understanding is that Chuck will be bringing with him all kinds of hyped2death goodies...

In keeping with our penchant for being ridiculously belated in sending out WFTBO setlists, we present you with our sets from July (we were joined by members of Brooklyn-based dream pop collective Mahogany) and June (our guest was Neal Becton, owner of DC-based Som Records, one of our favorite records shops in the area)...
 
 Right then...tonight marks the August edition of "We Fought the Big One" and our special guest is hyped2death founder/DIY archivist Chuck Warner. If you're in town, we hope you'll stop by and have a drink with us. Chuck assures us he'll be bringing loads of musical goodies with him. We don't doubt it...
