An Introduction...

👋 Hello, I'm Alec Hanley Bemis. You're receiving this because we crossed paths when I cleared music for a film project you were working on — either something released by my label Brassland (The National, This Is The Kit, etc.) or as a manager with Alexi Murdoch, Dirty Projectors, or various other indie musicians.

I've set up this email list to service Disco-friendly links for our new releases. We promise not to hit your inbox more than once a month, probably far less.

Finally, if you're interested in what I'm listening to with no sync agenda, let this email serve as an introduction to AHB's Goodies: a mixtape delivery service. 📼 
More on that at the end of the email!

OUT NOW 🖇️

We've prepared a 'samplers' to (re)introduce you to Brassland's artists and releases. The 'definitive' versions are on Spotify & Apple Music  — but there are playlists on YouTube and Bandcamp if you prefer those platforms. The sampler includes music by The National, Bartees StrangeThis Is The Kit, Thomas "Doveman" Bartlett, Matt Berninger, The Gloaming, Hannah GeorgasBaby Dayliner, Clogs & many more. Finally you can go to Soundcloud for podcasts about our community.

Last year I started AHB's Goodies — my mixtape delivery service. It's how I'm personally keeping up with music outside of what work or algorithms serve up. Sharing is caring so I've taken it a step further with an email list to share these playlists. Alternatively this link always leads to the latest one on Spotify, Apple Music and YouTube.

The selections are not about what's new, cool, or trending. Rather the idea is "eclectic music discovery" on a loose theme. The mixtapes have ranged from one featuring eclectic cover versions of iconic songs and standards ~  to a selection of holiday songs co-curated by trans icon Mx. Justin Vivian Bond ~  to my idea of what the bar band from Star Wars might sound like ~  to music discovered on my first post-Covid trip to Lisbon, Portugal.
