How to Build a Simple Website with React and Host it Using Firebase

You can create a website simply using, HTML, CSS, and a little bit of JS. But here we are going to lean to create a simple React website and making it live in just 5 minutes using Firebase Hosting.

Create a website using React

Rect.js is one of the best libraries to create single-page web apps. Other than pages, React handles with Components. To make multiple pages in a React app, we…

                       I’m happy to announce that the Make Live tapes are finally finished and ready to order.  You can also stream/download/order the 6 song EP on BANDCAMP. 

With your order you’ll receive a limited edition, (100) hand-painted cassette along with a digital download.  Also included is a 6 page booklet featuring original artwork by the incredibly talented Jesse Treece.

Orca Orca makes dream-pop sound easy... and really damn good.

"Underground's" sweet guitar work with the washing in and out of instrumentation allows Orca Orca the ability to fully capitalize on lyrical repetition which is the true bond forming element to the track. Jim Hewitt is  setting the bar rather high for what we should be expecting when the forthcoming Make Live album drops  with this first release off of it.

The first experience I had with Orca Orca's  music was back in November when I heard "When The Sun Comes Up (Featuring Qualms)," instantly making me a fan while giving me one of the best accompaniments to the memorable nights I've shared with friends over the last few months. I can't believe I'm just now putting it up for everyone else to enjoy as much as I have.

No release date has been set for Make Live, he's been promoting it rather heavily so I'm assuming it will be in the very near future.

Ok so I have some good news and some bad news.  The good news is all of the songs for the new EP are finished.  The bad news is I won’t have the tapes available to order tomorrow.  While taking a break from painting cassettes and printing out artwork last week, I wrote a new song.  I’ve decided to include it on the EP but in order to do so, I need to re-do a few things and push back the release date.

  I’m sorry.  Let me make it up to you.  I’ll let you download the song for free (for the time being) here.  More details to come…

"Underground" is the first single off the next Orca Orca release entitled Make Live.  It's a redux-version of a demo that was released in November 2010 and has undergone a few changes in the live setting this year that I wanted to capture on record.  

Make Live will be released on a limited edition (100), hand painted cassette February 21st and will feature 6 new Orca Orca recordings.  The artwork for the tape, including the cover art, will feature drawings from the incredibly talented Jesse Treece.  Stay tuned for further details coming soon but for now grab a free download of "Underground" on our Bandcamp.
