"Satie" is song completely exclusive to Brassland's Song-a-Day Giveaway. It is part of a series of electronic music recordings that Aaron & Bryce Dessner made in collaboration with Paul Heck (A&R for the Red Hot Organization) sometime around the time of Brassland's founding, early in the 21st century. (Seriously!) On Friday, November 18, 2011 you can download it for free at Brassland.org/giveaway or Facebook as part of our Song-a-Day Giveaway.

In fact, to celebrate Brassland's 10th anniversary, we're giving away a song-a-day all November. We'll also post a few of the tracks to Soundcloud, Tumblr & other spots on the web.

Brassland is and artist-operated label started in 2001 by Alec Hanley Bemis and twin brothers Aaron and Bryce Dessner. We began with a pair of debuts by Clogs & The National, but our goal was to develop a community of creative folk, and the family has grown to include work by Nico Muhly, Buke & Gass, and Doveman among others.
