Experiments
Here in the Experiments area you'll find all the brow-furrowing, chin-stroking activities that The ECC has been up to. Mischievous MP3s, vituperous videos, cued and ready for instant consumption and sardonic satisfaction.
Note the categories to the left. If you want only music, click MP3s. If you want only videos, there's that too. You can also peek into our Testing Area to hear beta tests and unfinished experiments that we're playing around with. And if you're wondering just what the hell we were thinking when we made those experiments, you might find the answers in our blog. Recent additions to all four categories are listed below.

Sound Of Plaid Archive: Live at Lost Weekend Records with Coolbrother Kyle
Monday, 02 September 2013 10:10
The Sound Of Plaid episode 2013.09.02: Live at Lost Weekend Records with Coolbrother Kyle
The Sound Of Plaid owes something of a debt to the vinyl slingers of Lost Weekend Records. For more than a decade Coolbrother Kyle has kept the platters spinning out the door of his low-headroom headquarters and into the appreciative hands of records junkies like us. We've certainly spent plenty of time in the store already -- so why not bring the show there too? (Saves us lugging more heavy vinyl back to the studio after all...)
So we joined the Lost Weekend Records Labor Day Parking Lot Record Swap and welcomed Coolbrother Kyle as our special guest, and compared and shared Columbus-specific absurdities and rarities, plus some of our fave finds we've snatched from Lost Weekend in the past. Our first ever live & public Sound Of Plaid!
