CTV
Ranging from the melodic to the absurd, CTV is Christian Television is Joshua Inwood. Currently residing in Portland Oregon, CTV mixes, makes, tapes and tempers on his keyboards and laptops. Included in his soundscapes you can hear television chefs whirring chocolate mousse while simultaneously tasting a sweet absence of linear rhythms.

BOOM!
BOOM! is a band, loud with shoes kicking out from underneath skateboards down Southeast Portland neighborhoods. These boys pile into cars, packing their gear and gritting their teeth to the rain on the way to their next sweaty house show. With their shredding guitars and hard skipping beats, BOOM! is like a birthday present that explodes in your face.
BOOM! comes to you here with 3 songs, all recently minted this past winter on their first west coast tour. Be sure to keep an eye on Gnar Tapes at www.gnartapesandshit.com for their soon-to-be-released (and limited edition) cassette.
