Land-O-Newts began as a living room studio and cassette label in Eugene OR in 1987, with a Tascam 4-track, a Casio SK1, a cheap microphone, and a dream. Over many years and over a dozen cassette releases, Land-O-Newts traded tapes with people all over the world.
Now Land-O-Newts is back home in Portland, and although we've said goodbye to tape hiss, and have some digital tricks up our sleeve, the heart of Land-O-Newts still beats the same way. From here, we will be putting out our own brand of home-made music - nerdcore, electro-acoustic nature-beat, electronica, and the oddly normal pop songs that occasionally haunt my dreams.
