ANIMAL SOUNDS







a 'mixtape,' based on what i know, is a cd - usually of the rap genre and released for free and/or online - comprised of 'shittier' versions of songs that haven't been released yet, freestyles, remixes, rapping or singing over an instrumental used by another artist and [other songs].

ANIMAL SOUNDS is a 19-song 'mixtape,' the first of [???] 'mixtapes,' comprised of 'shitty-ass' songs that i recorded on garageband, for the most part, had no intention of sharing with anybody else.

i created a 'bandcamp' account, where one can download ANIMAL SOUNDS in it's entirety, listen to/download each song individually and/or do the same re anti-american.

cover design by mallory whitten.


* for news re shows and more, follow me on twitter, 'like' my facebook page and/or check my 'bandcamp' account. all inquiries re booking, interviews and [anything else] can be sent to jordancastroisthepresident@gmail.com. thank you.

  8. Oh my god I hate the way you use inverted commas on everything. It's totally 'lame' and adds nothing to your 'depressing-ass''writing.'
