INTERVIEW:
IVIYH: Can you give our readers a brief history of Baku Shad-do and how the label got started?
Mikey Shad-do: Well, after owning Union Without Nation with my old buddy, Derek, years ago I had a bitter taste in my mouth for the whole game. Eventually, with time, I came back from it and with the #OCCUPYXMAS album I needed a label again, so it just sort of happened. With the positive reinforcement of my friend Dana (C.A.N.S. and former member of Ariel Pink), Dafydd (a.k.a. Nattymari, our staff writer and one of the co-owners of the label), Jeff (our staff artist, my former classmate, also another co-owner), Toby and Ryan (our mastering team, formerly known as WitchMasterz Audio and the final two co-owners in our little quintet), I decided to go for it. In addition, Matt from SortaHuman, Matt Kamm (TELETHON), Blam Lord, Skye Speciale (in all his fantastic and eccentric glory) and Ron from (o)?HERS (as well as many others, too numerous to list) have always been around lending positive vibes and support. Lest I forget, Joe, Danny, Jack, and Jakob from Aural Sects, Alex from Post Religion, Gypsy from Pale Noir, and the beloved avant garde statesman of the scene, Carl Clandestine, have always offered kind words. Despite the scene?s reputation for infighting I?ve found that there are a lot of people with great hearts in it.
IVIYH: How did you select bands to sign, is there a specific sound you want to focus on for the label, what makes a good fit for Baku Shad-do?
Mikey Shad-do: Baku Shad-do, a specific sound, hmmmm, well, we?re more or less just an evolving sound, we hit upon quite a spectrum of electronic sound and now we?ll be adding quite a bit of hip-hop too, the next PEPPERBOY album is already in the works as well as 4 other hip-hop projects.
IVIYH: What is the genesis of the name Baku Shad-do?
Mikey Shad-do: Oh, Baku Shad-do?s name origin, that?s quite simple. A Baku is a creature with origins in Japanese and Chinese folklore/mythos. It consumes nightmares/takes away people?s bad dreams. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baku_(spirit)
Shad-do is just a play on the word shadow. In fact it?s pronounced like shadow, except for a double d is used instead of a singular one.
IVIYH: How would you classify your label, and what can a label offer a band these days that they aren?t able to do for themselves?
Mikey Shad-do: We?re an indie dark (and experimental) electronic and hip-hop label with a rapidly expanding pop-sensibility. As for what a good label can offer I can only speak for Baku Shad-do. We offer experience, we have a combined background in excess of 50 years in the arts, music, and entertainment industries. Every single one of us brings our own realm of experience to the table and I feel lucky to be a member of our team.
IVIYH: What is you philosophy about physical releases?
Mikey Shad-do: I love them, but there?s not a hell of a lot of profit in them, at least not without tons of promotion. I get really sick with labels that claim they sell x number, but then you look at their web hits and it just doesn?t add up. It gives unrealistic expectations to young artists, then leaves them feeling let down when they learn the truth. It really troubles me when people in the scene (not blaming anyone specific) pump up newcomers (and the younger crowd) to have massive rockstar expectations and concepts of themselves in a very post-rockstar scene. It takes a ton of hard work to get ahead, most of the musicians who make it work tirelessly to get anywhere. Just breaking even is hard to begin with, if you can do that you should feel like you?re really getting somewhere.
IVIYH: Are there any albums/bands that you would like to re-issue?
Mikey Shad-do: I plan on re-issuing many of ours in the months ahead actually (in vinyl).
IVIYH: Some people say this is the worst era in history for music, some say it?s the best, how do you feel about the current state of the music business?
Mikey Shad-do: I?d completely agree with both P.O.V.?s, both are completely true in their own ways.
IVIYH: What are some of your current favorite albums?
Mikey Shad-do: Well lately I haven?t gotten to listen to much outside the scene, but (when not listening to what we?re working on at the moment) odds are I?m listening to stuff from one of the other labels we?re friends with: Aural Sects, ?????, Pale Noir, Clandestine or Post Religion.
IVIYH: Have you ever had any experience with the paranormal?
Mikey Shad-do: Quite probably, but if I did it was very very personal.
IVIYH: What advice would give someone who is wanting to start a label of their own?
Mikey Shad-do: If you do it, do it right, get a grant first, it can be really $@#$* expensive, oh and don?t ever let yourself get sucked in by drama.
IVIYH: If I was to vacation in your hell what should I expect to find there?
Mikey Shad-do: Bananas.
