Personally I hope that they start releasing new sessions again soon, I know that this whole lathe cutting thing takes a lot of time, but it has been a month since the last new video.

 
 

They teased a bunch of jumbled names on instagram yesterday and said there was more today. Jeff Rosenstock and a handful more in there.

EDIT: and they are live Wave 4 (11-9-16) Bring Us:

The next sessions are available tomorrow .. I'll pick Red City Radio

I got the Cayetana (# 2) and Signals Midwest (#5) .. and I must say, they sound brillant.
I got a refund for the shipping costs, and they wrote that the costs for shipping overseas will get cheaper, too .. really nice guys

Hey all,

It's been a long time since I spent any time on these boards, but I'm checking back in to chime in here. I should also forewarn you that I've known the Little Elephant guys for years and can't claim to be unbiased. That said, I've got to say that these lathes sound excellent. I bought sessions from Pinegrove, The City On Film, Into It. Over It., Foxing, Caleb & Carolyn, Cory Branan, Narrow/Arrow, and have yet to pick up my copies of TTNG, CYHSY, Half Waif, Joie De Vivre, or Dolfish. Again, speaking on the sound quality; these things are likely superior to any lathe cut you've ever heard. I don't mean to be hyperbolic; I've just had the same experience as many of you. I know how deeply these guys care about what they do - which has come across in spades for years of their YouTube session and Q&A videos - but that's not the reason I stand by these session lathe cuts. Plainly and simply, they sound very good. Through my Pro-Ject turntable, NAD amp, and Wharfedale bookshelf speakers I notice very little sonic difference when playing a session cut before or after a 180g pressing. I say this only to underscore that I'm not simply spinning these on a Crosley from Target while preaching on sound quality.

I will grant you guys that I wish each cut were $12 instead of $15, especially when some have just two songs. But since Little Elephant splits all profits with the bands and these things aren't cheap (or quick) to cut, I don't mind buying the sessions I love. To me, I'm supporting these few guys who I watch work tirelessly out of a house in a Toledo suburb, bringing amazing musicians into the area and giving their fans a unique way to hear the music.

Not a paid advertisement. Ha. Do what you want, but I'm a happy, returning customer and I can't wait to see what Little Elephant does next, should these lathe cuts afford them more opportunities.
