Doily

Much of doily's (aka Heather Leitner) past musical life was clouded with bad taste but it seems that she is coming around (after all, if you are reading this Broklyn Beats must excite you on some level, no?) Aside from performing mundane record label office work and coping with the noble injuries one might associate with such work (paper cuts, carpel tunnel, bad stamp licking aftertaste, sore ass and glazed eyes from sitting in front of the computer, exercises in phone diplomacy ... ) doily has been working on her own music, learning the wonders of gardening and bartending at a NYC music venue.
Her debut 12" titled "Mattress of the Universe" was released in September 2003 on Broklyn Beats. With it, she may confuse the world at least a tiny bit with her chunky lo-fi breaks and eerie melodies that chug along with reckless abandon. What the hell is this sh*t?!? they might say. Maybe it's a reminder that the universe is not always a soft place, especially with humans interfering in every way we deem fitting. Really though, Broklyn is proud to finally be releasing music from one of it's founders and we think some of you out there will enjoy this one.

In the nascent stages of her electronic music dabblings, doily had the honor of playing alongside some of the world's most formidable sound furors such as DJ /rupture, I-Sound, DJ Scud, Hrvatski, Noizecreator, Rotator, Doormouse, 1-Speed Bike, Donna Summer, Society Suckers, and of course, label-mate Criterion to name a few. Having been surrounded by such a talented group of people (ah-hem ... men I mean) has certainly contributed to her expanding ear and appetite for faster and harder breaks. We hope her appetite will keep growing...
Expect a full length from her in 2005 coming at you first as separate 12"s and then as a cd.
