This only exists because I wanted to make available the songs Moonrise’s recorded and released in CD back in the nineties.
Moonrise never had a full album release until now, but at least one cassette compilation and four CD compilations feature Moonrise’s recordings.

The initial idea here was to make all these compilations fully available as digital downloads.
After all they were all either released or distributed by O Bosque / Woodland when they were made available in their original format, but I was afraid the other bands could maybe not be happy with this (and I was too lazy and impatient to contact them), so now we’ve got here Moonrise’s first full album ever.

Comping refers both to this eventual “release for releasing”, to practice of camping - so dear to the band’s members, and of course to its being a compilation of tracks previously release in compilations. And it refers primarily to the wish of providing some extra/bonus material.


Come And Take, Wine, Barbaric Yawp, Nights Never End, Civil Contempt and Love are from Old Moon Whale, a 18-track CD compilation released in 1996 by Artifact Records (run by City Limits’ members), featuring the bands Old Magic Pallas and Speed Whale alongside Moonrise, with 6 songs for each one of the three bands.

Sunny Day/Rainy Day comes from the Japanese CD compilation +S br “People Are Required…”, released in 2003 by Plan De Sens.
Some of th other bands in this compilation: Magic Crayon, Pullovers, Astromato, Walden, Valv, Multisofa, Grape Storms, Fellini, Pelvs and Luisa Mandou Um Beijo.

Wish Thinking and When You Smile are from Don’t Be Afraid My Son, released by Dead Birds Wanna Fly’s Alcides in 1995. This was probably the first CD compilation with indie-rock-pop bands ever released in Brazil. Some of the other bands in this compilation: Comespace, UV Ray, Cigarettes and Sleepwalkers.

Done (acoustic) is from This Is The Sun, a cassette compilation released by Solaris Records (run by The Automatics’ Alexandre Alves) in 1998. Some of the other bands in this compilation: Snooze, Swamps and May Speed.

Good Inside comes from Moonrise’s own compilation release: Out. This song was originally recorded back in 1994 for Woodland, which would have been Moonrise's first demotape, if it'd have ever been promoted.

Sleep, Mahatma and Youthful Song are from the compilation Different Songs, the first proper CD release by O Bosque / Woodland, of 1998. Some of the other bands in this compilation: Six Degrees, Chronic Missing, Divine and The Old Suit.
But here all three songs are special versions.

Announcement: International compilation project tracklists and release dates!

After receiving hundreds of good submissions, in a mere 26 day period, from all over the world, we are pleased to announce the tracklists and release dates of our THREE international compilations!
:)
We know the initial idea was to make one international compilation, but due to the incredible amount and superb quality of the material submitted, we thought “the more the merrier!”, so now you have three brand new compilations, in the series format.

The compilations will be released first as a digital download and probably later as a CD as well.
Even if this is our first project of this kind, a completely DIY project, with all its foreseeable/imaginable difficulties and monetary limitations, every artist on it will be remunerated.
Well, their remuneration will depend on the selling.
All the profit from the selling will be shared equally among the artists and the label. Of course if no one buys, there’ll be nothing to be shared.

So if you think it’s worth a try, check it out! All the three compilations will be available on iTunes, bandcamp.com, Amazon, emusic, Napster, Spotify, last.fm etc.
Support DIY! :)

Após o fim do grupo de lofi rock Barins, três deles foram formar o In Cases em junho de 2009.
Inicialmente um trio, e depois um quarteto, a banda In Cases foi formada em Brighton, Inglaterra, com uma formação heterogênea - bateria, guitarra, teclado, voz, sax e instrumentos caseiros de sopro - e influências de artistas como Nico, Neu!, B-52's, John Zorn, Stereolab, Portishead, Battles e Micachu.
A banda durou menos de 2 anos e nesse período teve apenas uma sessão de gravação, que originou o álbum Flat 2; além de algumas gravações de ensaios e vídeos de shows, tudo feito com o celular.

A banda tocou vários shows em cidades da Inglaterra (Brighton, Londres, Bristol, entre outras) e esteve em turnê em 2010 com shows na Inglaterra, Escócia, Irlanda, França, Polônia e Alemanha.


After the split of the lofi rock group Barins, three of them went on to form In Cases in June 2009.
Initially a trio, then a quartet, the band In Cases was formed in Brighton, England, with a heterogeneous formation - drums, guitar, keyboard, voice, sax and other homemade wind instruments - and influences from artists like Nico, Neu!, John Zorn, Stereolab, Portishead, Battles and Micachu.
The band In Cases lasted less than two years and in that time had only one recording session, which originated the album Flat 2; plus some rehearsal recordings and videos from gigs made with the cell phone.

The band played gigs in several cities of England (Brighton, London, Bristol, among others) and was on tour in 2010 with gigs in England, Scotland, Ireland, France, Poland and Germany.

--

6 facts about In Cases:
- they love effects and weird forms and subjects;
- they play instruments like violin, sax, flute, home-made wind instruments, processor, synthesizer, in adittion to the usual drums, keyboard and guitar (and there's no bass-guitar at all);
- they love to live in the UK, even if they're not British;
- they love to play (loud) in new different places;
- they don't like their band's name that much right now;
- they love their songs madly.
