| Dear Patchers, Hey! Good to see you. I'm writing because we have a new single out now from the Lil' Hospital, released in collaboration with Total Gaylord Records. Four excellent pop songs on one beautiful slab of vinyl... Grab it on the releases page, and check out their myspace here: http://www.myspace.com/lilhospital. That's all for now! Love, Maxwell Patch. |

| Dear 'Patch, The Monster Bobby 7" is finally here, which means everything is going to be okay. It's lo-fi enough to recall olden days when we didn't even want to be popstars, but you know Bobby's songs are so wonderful anyway, they don't need a million digital tracks cluttering up the music. These four songs are some of the best I've heard this year, and they're so short you just want to eat them all in one sitting, like a big delicious peanut butter cookie, pressed with the criss-cross on top, fresh from the stove. Keep an eye to the sky, 'Patchers, and don't get hurt out there in the big wide world, because you'll have to go to the Lil' Hospital. Shhh... Coming soon. Lovingly, Maxwell Patch. |

| Dear Patchers, We finally have the new Yellow Fever 7". I was DJing a wedding this weekend and the parents of the bride couldn't believe that I still used vinyl. A lot of people ask me why, in fact. Even younger people. Especially DJs. I continue to lug around crates of records, while they just have their CDs or iPods. The truth is, I don't know. I love records, and it's completely irrational, I suppose. After having gone to rock shows for a good while now, my eardrums are so decimated I can hardly tell the difference between CD and record anymore. But I can tell you that this new record from Yellow Fever couldn't exist on anything but vinyl. It's on candy yellow vinyl, and it sounds amazing. I'm so proud to present to you: the Culver City EP. Love, Maxwell Hugpatch |

| Welcome to the Hugpatch Records internet
home. Thank you for stumbling on in. Would you like to take a seat?
Are you hot? I can turn the thermostat down for you. I’d like
you to be comfortable. Okay, now that you’re comfortable, let me tell you a little bit about Hugpatch. A Hugpatch is the feeling you get when listening to a record makes things a little better. That’s the best way I could describe it for you. A Hugpatch is precious, but in a good way. Do you know what I mean? It’s okay if you don’t. You don't have to pretend. Sometimes it doesn’t make any sense to me either. Hugpatch01 is going to be the Besties. Stay tuned for more news about future Hugpatch Records releases. See you soon, 'Patch |
