10 YEARS OF HASSLE [1/3]

Re-released on the fancy new Hassle Bandcamp, in honor of the Hassle's ten-year anniversary COMING UP THIS YEAR, is the original Bodies of Water Arts and Crafts local music compilation titled "Boston Hassle." What started it all.

All proceeds from the purchase of this album will be donated to the Trans Emergency Fund of MA.

Here's the original description from the 2011 release:

"This compilation is the physical embodiment of the various underground music scenes that B.O.W. Shows & the Boston Compass attempt to foster week to week, year after year. BOSTON HASSLE is a snapshot of an amazing music scene and community in 2011, and quite literally (thanks to the format) a badge for the listener to wear to show that they are down with the Boston underground sound.
ALL TRACKS ARE EXCLUSIVE TO THIS COMPILATION AND AVAILABLE NOWHERE ELSE.

BOSTON HASSLE will be released exclusively on a 3" wearable button music playing format called Playbutton. Wearers of the button simply need to plug in their headphones and press play. Yes, it is a new format, and hell yes we love records as much as(if not more) than most people, but we think this format actually seems viable, so we thought we'd give it a try.
