Many know that Bandcamp is donating all its proceeds on Juneteenth to the NAACP Legal Defense Fund.

We also want you to know that we will be donating our share of proceeds from ANY sales to Rise Up Kingston, a grassroots organization in our community devoted to dismantling the structures of racism and oppression. Over the last two weeks, Rise Up Kingston has been instrumental in organizing our community and obtaining commitments from the city to enact reforms that will ensure police accountability and a stronger relationship between law enforcement and the community it is sworn to protect. We’ve only been a part of this community for a short period of time, but we can already see the importance of Rise Up Kingston, and organizations like it, and we’re proud to offer them what support we can. If you’re interested in Rise Up Kingston, you can learn more “here”:https://riseupkingston.org

We feel strongly that positive change starts with local action, and we strongly encourage you to become involved in your local community to help create the kind of place that works for all of us.

Coming July 3, “The Point of the Point” w/”Checked Out”, a new single by Brooklyn’s *SAVAK*. You can preorder today, with Bandcamp donating all today’s proceeds to the NAACP Legal Defense Fund and Dromedary donating all proceeds to Rise Up Kingston. Available in limited-edition lathe-cut picture disc (limited to 100 copies), and on all digital formats, either from Dromedary, directly from the band, or from all giant, soulless corporate platforms. These will sell out quickly, reserve your copy today!

After a self-imposed delay, we’re proud to OFFICIALLY release “Bait” w/”Couch Cooking,” the new single by one of our favorite bands, *Glazer*. The record is available via high-resolution download and on all streaming platforms, and is also available as a limited-edition 8″ lathe-cut (8 inches because Glazer’s sound is too damn big for 7″).

Get your copy at “this link”:https://dromedaryrecords.bandcamp.com/album/bait-couch-cooking today. Get ’em quick, we expect them to sell out soon!

We first heard Savak via Jon Solomon’s excellent Comedy Minus One label; their _Best of Luck in Future Endeavors_ LP was one of our favorites of 2016 and we quickly became followers of the band’s outstanding output. Founded by members of Obits, The Nation of Ulysses, Holy Fuck and The Cops, the band’s literate, offbeat pop draws from a wide range of influences; their albums with both CMO and the Ernest Jenning Record Company are absolutely essential.

We’re beyond thrilled to be working with them on the next installment of our lathe-cut series. On June 3, we’ll be releasing “The Point of the Point” w/ “Checked Out,” which will be released on limited-edition 8″ lathe-cut format. With artwork designed by Eli Kasan of The Gotobeds, the record will be limited to just 100 copies – once they’re gone, they’re gone!

We’ll be making the record available for preorder on June 19 via our Bandcamp site, a great day to buy because Bandcamp will be donating all their fees to the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. That same day, we’ll be donating OUR proceeds to Rise Up Kingston, a grassroots organization devoted to dismantling the structures of racism and oppression in our community.

Now is not the time for us to be doing anything that could potentially distract from the important dialogue happening across the country today. Rather than grab the mic to promote records, we intend to spend this time offering support and solidarity while we listen and learn. In light of this, we are temporarily postponing this week’s scheduled release of Glazer’s “Bait” single.

Friday is another “Free” Bandcamp day. While we are not a company that sells a ton of records, any proceeds that come our way on Friday will be donated to Rise Up Kingston, an organization in our new community of Kingston, New York, dedicated to dismantling the structures of racism and oppression. We hope you’ll consider offering support to similar grassroots organizations in your own community.

Also please note that on June 19, Bandcamp will be donating 100% of their proceeds to the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. Please consider buying some music from independent artists on that day.

Peace, love and strength.

The Glazer “Bait” w/”Couch Cooking” single is available for preorder *NOW*, with a release date of June 5, 2020.

The single will be available in all digital formats, as well as a limited-edition lathe-cut 8″. Limited to 40 copies, the single is the seventh installment in Dromedary’s lathe-cut series. “You can order it at this link”:https://dromedaryrecords.bandcamp.com/album/bait-couch-cooking in the digital format of your choice, or you can reserve one of the beautiful limited lathe-cut 8″ plexiglas picture discs. The 8″ is a _one-time only pressing,_ and when we’re out, we’re out, and you’ll have to buy them at a premium on Discogs!
