NOISE ORDINANCE

On a California vacay, Elysian Sex Drive drummer Claire Franklin thought of Sarasota/Bradenton’s growing original music scene. “Everybody’s really supportive of everybody,” she said, “and it seems to be like a ‘family’ kind of thing, you know. And I just figured, ‘What better way to, kind of, embrace that than by putting everybody together on a CD and letting everybody kinda cross-promote each other?’” As owner of Blue Medusa Studios, she’ll oversee/produce the compilation, and already conducted a Facebook naming contest. Attorney Barbara Day Welsh chose the most popular entry: “Noise Ordinance.” (Welsh gets mentioned in the credits and a free copy.) Of the disc’s namesake, Franklin said, “It’s caused a lot of things to get shut down and go away. It’s just been a problem. Kind of, naming the CD ‘Noise Ordinance,’ I thought, ‘That’s just so fitting because that really has been the one common thread throughout all these years in Sarasota music — the Sarasota noise ordinance hangin’ over everybody’s head!’ ” Franklin envisions a “wild assortment” of musical styles on the disc (or two discs if interest is considerable), with each participant sharing printing costs (estimated at “well under $100 per band”) and getting an equal number of finished CDs when done. Interested original music makers, sponsors, whomever, may find contact/submission data at www.noiseordinance.wordpress.com.

    I submitted and subscribed. I’m so in to this. I don’t have any downloadable URLs, only listenable ones. I’ll happily mail you the CD. Give me an addy. Glad to contribute and sell the CDs. I do some out of town stuff and I’m doing a Pre-Sundance festival in Park City, Utah in January, if you’re ready. I can volunteer to duplicate the CD’s on my multi burner and I can print the art on the blank CDs as well. Good luck. Stay in touch.
