| Fred Armisen – who plays Uncle Fester on the Wednesday series – has a new sound effects album coming out via Drag City on September 26th. |
Here's the scoop...
Fred Armisen, long known as one of the most curious actor/comedian/musician/ producer/ author/all-round good guys in the business, likes unusual ways of entertaining people. Like this one: 100 Sound Effects – slated for release September 26 via Drag City – is an album that that can be used as a library, an industrial tool for your own entertainment projects, or simply for brain-stimulating deep listening.
From basic sounds ("Tent Zipper," "Wine Glass Breaking in Sink," "Basketball on Carpet)" to more abstract scenarios ("Music Venue Employee Kicking Everyone Out While Throwing Away Bottles," "Disappointed Crowd – Dublin," "Thrift Store Perfunctory Search for Halloween Costume," "Haunted House Ghost Going Upstairs but the Door is Locked"), 100 Sound Effects is an album like no other! Note: It actually contains 101 sound effects.
You can get a vinyl copy of Fred Armisen's 100 Sound Effects album via Bandcamp right here. Check out Fred Armisen talking about 100 Sound Effects with Jimmy Fallon and Stephen Colbert – who both seem to be blissfully unaware of the concept of sound effects albums – followed by Fred's zoom chat briefly about the album (and other stuff) with Charles Brownstein for the Records In My Life podcast. Listen to Fred talk about 100 Sound Effects on The New Yorker's Radio Hour podcast right here.
