            <title>Endless Entertainment</title>
            <description><![CDATA[From 2010 onward, EndlessRecordings is now operating as Endless Entertainement. Semantics for sure, however, the name change signifies a future of Artist Management as opposed to the activities of a traditional Record Label.<br /><br />Our goal continues to be "expose great music to our community," that will never change. Now, instead of working with printers and distributors, the focus becomes more holistic. Endless Entertainment will provide support and guidance to up-and-coming acts that we dig. <br /><br />You can continue to check back to listen to our entire catalog, for FREE, on any of the bands' pages. Also, the new and improved "Dave's Corner" will feature odds&amp;ends spanning a wide array of topics just as soon as we can get it up and running.<br /><br />Thank you for your continued support of the "Endless" enterprise. This next decade is going to be FUN!<br /> ]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[At long last, <a href="http://www.akudamamusic.com/">AkudamaMusic.com</a> has launched. Thanks to our good friends Adam Abrutyn (from <a href="http://www.ezrafurman.com/">Ezra Furman &amp; The Harpoons</a>) &amp; Aviva Maltin, the site looks and functions beautifully. You can check out more work from their portfolio <a href="http://adamabrutyn.com/">HERE</a>.<br /><br />Akudama will be releasing a new single, A&amp;B sides w/ full cover art, each month on their website, and the best part is, the music is 100% FREE.&nbsp; (After each month the music will be available to purchase digitally, and will remain free to stream directly from the site) <br /><br />We are all keeping our fingers crossed for an early spring over here at the Endless HQ so that we can showcase more new music more frequently. We are looking forward to staging some house parties, rooftop soir<tt>é</tt>es, and other musical social events.<br /><br />Please drop Endless a line <a href="mailto:david@endlessrecordings.com">HERE</a>, and let us know what you think of the new site. We welcome suggestions too :)<br /> ]]></description>

            <title>Happy Holidays</title>
            <description><![CDATA[Happy Holidays/New Year! Thanks for checking in. Things seem to be quiet over at Endless Recordings, but the truth is, we've just been preparing for a big 2009. AkudamaMusic.com and a redesigned Myspace page for Akudama will be unveiled early in the new year. Also, check back for a lot of new content; music, videos, lyrics, tour dates, and maybe some other goodies.<br /><br />Despite the apparent downturn in the world economy, we can always turn to good music to lift our spirits and to spread the love and excitement for all that is good. What a world of possibility!<br /> ]]></description>

            <title>Tour Progress</title>
            <description><![CDATA[<font style="font-size: 1.95312em;">This is a call </font>to all of the people in front of the stage at the CD release party for "Johnny Appleseed" who had cameras and were taking photos. As the show was so crowded (thanks for coming out and packing the place), Endless Recordings was unable to capture any of the action on our cameras but would love to showcase your photos on this site!<br /><br />Tour is officially underway. There have been some bumps in the road, namely a blown tire on the way to Syracuse. The band is currently somewhere West of Pittsburgh, and enjoying playing to new audiences along side their friends in Kentucky Nightmare.<br /><br />You can order Akudama's new "Johnny Appleseed" E.P. or T-shirts from this site, or the <a href="http://www.myspace.com/akudama">Myspace</a> page, and hopefully you have checked out and enjoyed the new tunes and will be able to make it out to a live show in the near future.<br /> ]]></description>

            <title>Blake Mugged...Again!</title>
            <description><![CDATA[Amazingly, Blake, the lead singer of Akudama, has been mugged yet again. This time for $200 and his ID (which was JUST replaced from his last mugging). I guess it really must be time for the band to get out of NYC and on the road!<br /><br />Endless Recordings has received shipment of the "Johnny Appleseed" E.P. and will be getting it up, in its entirety, for streaming or purchase from this site very soon.<br /><br />We can also finally announce the E.P. Release Party/National tour launch:<br />Thursday <b>May 22nd @ Spike Hill </b>(Williamsburg, Brooklyn)<br />Doors open at 8pm, Akudama performs at 9:30pm<br />Tour mates "Kentucky Nightmare", and friends&nbsp; "Muy Cansado" will also perform.<br /><br />Both Akudamamusic.com and Tinywhales.com are under serious development and will be launching shortly. Please check back for updates.<br /><br />Tiny Whale's recent SOLD-OUT performance with Film School in Portsmouth, NH was one of the their better gigs in recent memory. We strongly recommend that you try and make it out to one of their select upcoming shows!<br /> ]]></description>

            <title>Van is Back!</title>
            <description><![CDATA[Akudama managed to make it out to perform four shows during their week without an official mode of transportation. The gigs were fun, and thankfully the band van-mobile is back in business (after a rebuilt transmission)!<br /><br />The first leg of the summer tour has been officially booked, and you can expect to see full details about dates out towards Indiana and back right here on this site and the <a href="http://www.myspace.com/akudama">Myspace</a> page shortly.<br /><br />The band is also knee deep in shoots for music videos that will compliment their E.P. release on May 22nd. (More information about that special show soon as well)<br /><br />On the Tiny Whales font, the guys have booked some really exciting shows in the Boston/Portsmouth, NH area. If you have not had a chance to enjoy their live set yet, there has never been a better time to get out there and ROCK!<br />]]></description>

            <title>Rollercoaster</title>
            <description><![CDATA[What a roller coaster week for Akudama!<br /><br />Tuesday morning the band purchased what is to be their&nbsp; deluxe van for the 2008 Summer tour. About two hours and 150 miles into their trip to Boston to play at The Middle East, smoke starts pouring out from the underside of the van.<br /><br />They immediately pull over and arrange to be towed to the nearest service station which thankfully had a few U-Hauls available for rent. All of the equipment was then transferred to the rented 14 foot truck. Miraculously, the band made it on time to what turned out to be an excellent show with White Hinterland and Throw Me The Statue.<br /><br />(Many thanks to the crowd of friendly faces and also to the new fans who were able to show their support at the Middle East on a Tuesday night!)<br /><br />As the van was immobile the middle of Connecticut, the band then had to return the U-Haul, and arrange for their newly purchased vehicle to be towed back towards NYC where it could be worked on at length by a trusted mechanic.<br /><br />Now, again without a proper touring vehicle (for the time being), Akudama have four additional shows in the next seven days.... Exciting times these are!<br /><br />On the Tiny Whales front: The guys are regrouping after their last tour outing, and are planning new material to record for a full length release to be announced soon.<br />]]></description>
