YAY! Records


YAY1, YAY2, YAY3, and YAY4 on my floor.

There's no need to get deep into it, but as anyone who's anyone will tell you, 2007 has been an hugely excellent year for INDIEPOP! There's been labels popping up all over the place, many of which have been covered here or may be discussed in further posts, but today I'd like to take a moment to shed some light on Oxnard, California's very own YAY! Records. Claiming to "bring the fun back in pop!" the YAY! label is dedicated to vinly-only releases of some of the best pop! that Southern California's got to offer. The label's current roster includes Maria, Catwalk, Pam & Teri, and recent additions The Sea Lions!

Here's a taste of what you can expect from YAY!
[MP3]: Maria :: I Remember What It Was To Feel (Highly Rec'd!!)
[MP3]: Maria :: Friends Forever (Highly Rec'd!!)

I would also definitely recommend checking out the rest of the bands at their respective homes on MySpace to hear more songs and to be their friends, of course.

YAY!'s current and forthcoming releases include:
YAY!1 - MARIA: "Oh Victoria!" Out Now!!
YAY!2 - CATWALK: "Shiny Girl" (Now avaliable!!)
YAY!3 - YAY! Fanzine (Now Available!!)
YAY!4 - MARIA: "Friends Forever" Out Now!!
YAY!5 - PAM & TERI: "Lucy" (Coming out very soon!!!!!)
YAY!6 - Sea Lions: "There's More Than Feeling Like This" (Fall 2007)
YAY!7 - Catwalk: "Comely" (Fall 2007)
YAY!8 - YAY! Fanzine (Winter 2007)
YAY!9 - MARIA: "Love Is Something I Know Nothing About" (Winter 2007)

I can't wait to get my hands on those. They look so pretty and incredibly and unashamedly Sarah Records-like.
