SHIPPING COSTS:
There doesn't seem to be a simple way for this site to calculate shipping costs for multiple items reliably. Please just add anything you want to buy to your shopping cart, clicking the appropriate button for UK or overseas postage, and if you buy multiple items we'll refund an appropriate portion of that back to you to reflect the actual cost of shipping your items.

Haven't really finished much since we moved house, probably won't finish much else before we move house again, but here's a new andrew clare composition.
November 29th 2012
November 28th 2012
Still tinkering with our "business" model; basically it now works like this: Most releases are free to download using the links below, the bandcamp links are there for those of you who would like to pay a bit of money in order to get the download in a preferred format (wav, flac, ogg, mp3, etc). If you'd like to support us please consider making a donation.
Some releases are not free, these include anything still available in a physical format, and most stuff by I'm Being Good.
Pricing; basically everything's a lot cheaper, but the postage costs have gone up. Most CDs are now £4.99 or less.
November 8th 2012
For the rest of November, we're donating 20% of all digital sales (via the bandcamp links below) to WFMU. Admittedly, for any normal month that's 20% of nothing. To make a direct donation, head here.

New release. It's another Andrew Clare solo album. More to follow, i'm sitting on a whole bunch of stuff.
Feb 15th 2010

March 19th at the Cowley Club in Brighton.
Some other shows tbc in reading, southampton and brighton between now and the summer time.
The new IBG album is approaching final stages of production, looks like it'll either end up being a double or two separate releases. We're also trying to finish the other album that we recorded just before Dave left the band, so we're currently sitting on three albums worth of new stuff, most of which will find its way out one way or another this year.
I'm Being Good also now have a site at http://imbeinggood.bandcamp.com where, you can buy downloads of all their albums in pretty much any format or sound quality you like, including Family Snaps, 8 of us R dead, Sub-Plot, and Poisonous Life.

be a new pine forest release, a CGI WORMS release and possibly a second installment
of spares or repairs. Join the mailing list (above) and you'll get mailed when
it finally happens. We don't mail out very often so don't worry about spam overload.
you'll also get gig updates, usually, like, the day after the gigs are happening.
great.

Not the new album we just finished, a different new album. Probably in, like, early august by the time i get around to it. also just added a forum. i'll get around to redesigning this page to incorporate all of these elements properly some time.
June 2nd 2005
new pine forest album will be up within the next week or so, i've got my head wrapped around finishing the i'm being good CD at the moment.. but SOON.
May 3rd 2005

April 8th 2005
yet another re-issue!
I'm Being Good's seminal 2001 CD sub plot. Pretty much
sold out over at i'mbeinggood.com,
although there's a handful left if you're desperate to own a 'real' copy. Not
fussed? then download it for free right here.
more stuff to follow soon: virtual singles by dj scotch egg, world's dirtiest sport and others, a full-length pine forest release and more re-issues from the vaults.
April 7th 2005
another re-issue... i've got a lot of stuff backed up, this is the now out-of-print small things first LP. Basically the line-up of i'm being good circa 1995 (andrew clare, david ewan campbell, jason williams) noodling around at home. If you told a bunch of casper hausers who'd never heard jazz before to go read a book about it and then go off and make some it might sound something like this. aomewhere between CAN and sun city girls. oddly reminiscent of current finnish outfits like the anaksimandros.
April 6th 2005
here's a re-issue. it's the bald mermaid LP from 1996. still sounds as ugly as ever. If the idea of downloading a 105MB zip file fills you with dread you can download some snippet previews to help you commit. alternately you can still buy this one on vinyl from the old site.
April 4th 2005
okay, bought the server space... here's the first internet-only free MP3 release. It's by Pine Forest. More stuff to follow real soon. In the meantime if you're still hung up on owning hard copies you can still buy stuff from the old site.
