More Foot Foot News!
So our favorite porch country Californians Foot Foot have been racking up the good reviews this week. Trumpet will be a hit, so I suggest ya'll join the party! Check out what people are saying about this
"Brown’s singing gives an appealing roughness to delicately phrased poetry, amplifying the naturalistic imagery in the lyrics and making it more concrete."-PopMatters.com

"With this album, Foot Foot seems to have successfully trapped a piece of time--a time when music was not just for ass-shaking, but self-reflection down by the pond."-URB Magazine

Also, for all you tech savvy friends, you can now buy the album off of iTunes. Just go to the itunes store and search for "Foot Foot Trumpet"

Store Down Until Further Notice.
Sorry guys, but because we still haven't received any type of information on when our stuff is coming from California (we're getting a deal from a moving company, but we're on stand-by kind of thing).
So the store is closed, and I'm issuing refunds to anyone who ordered in the last month and a half or so.
HOWEVER, you can order our stuff through places like
Hardly Core Distro
Tomentosa Records
Robotic Empire
Also, our releases are distributed by Revolver and Carrot Top distribution, so go to your local record store and ask for any of our releases and they should be able to order them with no problems.
thanks, and I'll keep you posted on hen the Oedipus Store opens again.

P-Town Love!
Greeting to everyone.
So Pat and have begun our lives here in a basement apartment in East Williamsburg, Brooklyn. It will still be a while before we receive Oedipus stock, so please do not order from us for now!
However, in the new issue of Dazed Magazine, Mr. Zac Pennington of the ever so brilliant Parenthetical Girls gives big ups to the city of Portland, OR. As much as we love and miss our second favorite west coast city, the most awesome part of the article for us is really when he gives big props to Au. Oedipus bands showing Oedipus bands love always makes us super happy. So without further adieu, check out the article here

Happy Holidays: Please Don't Buy From Us!
Hi Guys,
I know it sounds funny for a business to tell you to not buy our products, especially during the holidays, but the truth is that we're moving and all of our Oedipus related stuff is all packed up. So even if you order....you won't get it til' nearly February when we're all settled in whatever burrough we end up in.
So have yourselves a good Christmas!
Oh, if you happen to live in Austin, TX get in touch because we'll be getting our party on for New Years and the more the merrier.
see ya'll soon,
-Gabe

Hello Atlantic!
Hi guys,
so sorry about the lack of updates in regards to anything Oedipus. Basically we've been really busy with our personal lives and both Pat and I are finishing up our last semesters of school. However I have some pretty important news for everyone.
First off, I am now an employee of our favorite east coast label Aagoo. Aagoo is an New York City based label and has been around for about 5 years and put out some amazing albums. I will be bringing along all my Oedipus know-how to build up their catalog and really do something interesting. Although I can't really give all the details in the world, expect new albums by Foot Foot and Au in the next 6 months, as well as some great limited edition fun stuff.
Because of this, Pat and I are leaving our Southern California homes and moving to Brooklyn. Anyone who knows us can tell you that New York has been a pipe dream ever since we were 16, so we're really pumped.
Oedipus will still remain an active label, albeit for the most part limited edition 7"s. Nothing is certain right now, but we have a couple of really great people we're discussing working with. So keep checking the website! it will also function as our travel blog, since we'll be road trippin' it through most of the country.
so please keep checking out the site. The brand new Aagoo website should be up by next week. so check aagoo.com pretty regularly.
