Just tested the new beta Extra Chill Community update with enhance SarAI technologies, and it’s flawless!!! The UI is clean, the responsiveness is instant, and the overall user experience feels incredibly intuitive. The backend must be rock-solid because everything runs seamlessly, with zero lag or hiccups. Seriously impressive work Chubes!!! This is how a a music blog website should feel like!

in reply to: CARLS – Charleston, SC (Rock)Good day to you Community. We have a new single out this week. It’s called Irrational Confidence. It’s about being really good a parallel parking and other various humble brags of import. It also has some pretty rad keyboard tones from a thrift store synth we picked up years ago. Hope you dig it!
I should note that we have a bunch of shows we’ll be announcing soon. So there’s that.

Big thanks to Coast Records for the (as always) marvelous mixing!
Also, huge shout out to Holy City Booking and Frequency Fest*. As the excellent EC article covered, this whole endeavor is incredibly cool and a marvelous addition to our fair city. We implore anyone reading this to go check it out. Hear some scuzzy power chords, drink a shitty beer and yell with a stranger. It’s what what makes life worth living.
*Unfortunately, due to some unavoidable scheduling conflicts, CARLS had to drop from our spot on Saturday at the Garden. But a few of us will still be there to partake (and potentially repeatedly request that someone play some Creedence).
Also, also, a big fuck yeah to Chris Garner and Grilled Cheese for the weekly videos they’re doing. Tremendous. Just Tremendous.
Okay, that’s it.
Be excellent to each other.
in reply to: Wilmot – Daydream Single ReleaseHey Matt, thanks for signing up here! Can’t wait to check out the tunes. I’ll shoot you an email to discuss the 5/2 single release!
I wanted to share a few things y’all posted on IG in here too so people who find this page can learn even more about the band

in reply to: Developer LogI think the redesign is going to be really cool.
I’m also thinking about an app version of this forum and the blog combined into one.
I think before i can do that, i have to finish a few updates on this forum.
But basically, i want users to be able to access both the blog and the forum without having to go to a web browser.

What a surprising cover to come across.
in reply to: Developer LogI am working on a possible redesign of the forum.
You know, i always tend to go off the rails instead of perfecting one thing at a time.
The overall effect is that Extra Chill has become this massive and unique music platform.
I’m trying to make it fun to use so that people will be more inclined to come on here more often.
I know that i also need to make an app version of this that will get more people to be active in here. If Extra Chill was an app it would be so much cooler. But creating an...

It’s on my list.

Added Community Header to top of front page – this will welcome you when you show up at the site, including displaying your username if you are logged in.
Ad-free license – Added a product to the Merch Store that will remove ads from the entire website when purchased. That is pretty cool, I think. It’s only $10, so if anyone feels like turning off ads, your contribution will go towards helping us keep building
I have a few more ideas in the works that i am currently trying to implement. Including the ability for community members to upload events to our calendar.
