Today is a momentous one: the piecing together of Pregnant’s “Regional Music” begins. They’ll start shipping most likely by tomorrow or Friday. Officially “out” next week, but available right here:

Here’s a little blurb about the record:

The best album by Daniel Trudeau of Placerville, California as the band “Pregnant.”  Purely pop songwriting that is unafraid to bliss out into pure error glitch. Blue screen of life. There is nothing “usual” about this music, and it cannot feel more normal, organic, and timeless. Here we have poptimistic jubilations, hip-hop freakouts, and somber meditations. 11 tracks and a cute and meditative lock groove. 500 copies on “Big Bird” marbled yellow vinyl (okay, it’s kind of more “blinged-out Big Bird” but what can you do) in pro-printed jackets with parallel universe sax-y art and an informative insert. Includes download code.

Preorders are closed, but I’ll throw that special mix CDR Daniel put together into a handful of orders randomly…

In other very-delayed record news: a couple people have messaged me about the Sacramento Split — don’t worry, it isn’t lost in the mail! I am awaiting the jackets. When I receive them, I will expediently get them into your hands.
