Childrenplay Records will be shutting down. Apologies to all the fans. The label started as a good idea; however, we’ve lost quiet a bit of our own money attempting to start it up and one of our members is soon off to Nepal for mission work and to work with anti-human trafficking organizations. All products still unsold will continue to be available until June at which point the label will cease to function. No new releases will be forthcoming, apologies to all the artists who hoped to release on the label. Thank you for all your support during the lifetime of Childrenplay Records.
arbor vitae - Michael Oldham & Friends
Beautiful release featuring Michael Oldham, affable noise, luka uemura, Sima, Yutaka Hirasaka, and Sandcastles available now. Digital release ($8) and physical release ($11 + shipping) available on the Childrenplay Records Bandcamp. Physical release comes in a beautiful wooden branch USB limited to 30. Picture below:
The Deluxe Edition of the sink\sink CDr is currently sold out due to potentially running out of supplies. There were 11 copies made, if there are enough supplies after the 11 copies have been made then another 4 will will be made to reach the original 15. Please email the label if you wish to receive information or be put on the waiting list if an extra 4 copies are in fact made. Standard Limited CDr editions are still available.
All orders ordered last week should ship by Wednesday. I apologize for any delays.
Donation
We are currently waiting for money to be transferred from from paypal to the bank account; however, here is the breakdown of where the money will be going. We will be donating $163 collected from all sales up til 22/July/2011 to World Vision and Shepherd’s Field Childrens Village. $100 will go to World Vision and $63 will go to Shepherd’s Field Childrens Village. Both are very worthy causes helping children around the world. No money will be going to Stop the Traffick in this donation batch; however, the profits from the upcoming ‘forgotten tragedies’ project will be completely donated to Stop the Traffick. Thank you for everyone’s support to the label, a receipt verifying and authenticating the donation will be posted shortly.
Also Childrenplay Records and sink\sink will be supporting Chace Topperwien and his family by donating all the profits from the Center Folds EP to Chase. Chace is just two years and three months old and is staging a courageous battle against acute myeloid luekaemia. Our prayers go out to them.
