This is really a milestone in my musical carreer. I saw MDC (Millions of Dead Cops), a legendary USA hardcore band, play in my hometown as an young punk, age 17. And now I am on a compilation selected by Dave Victor (MDC singer) himself. And all is for a good cause: Docters without Borders!
I really got goosebumps when I heard my last cord fade out with the air alarm sirene we mixed in the song and then it went over into the MDC song on the album.
The song we play on this is a re-arrangement of Link Wray's Branded. Recorded on my old 4 track, but it sounds great, thanks to some great mastering.
By the way, Aloha Sluts was on a big hiatus since our last show at Aloha Fest 5. Our bassplayer quit and I had troubles from a shoulder injury which made guitarplaying impossible. But I started playing a couple of weeks ago on our couch and the pain and stiffness are getting better. Now we just have to find an new bassplayer.... JonPaul? We can get you an apartment above Sounds Record Store!
