It was the arrival of a Studer A80 master recorder at the front door of Sam Shepherd-otherwise known as Floating Points-that caused him to begin building the studio that led to the creation of his debut album, Elaenia. After a slight miscalculation meant that he could not physically get the thing inside his home, what happened next can only be described as a beautiful example of the butterfly effect. Breaking away from making electronic music on his laptop, the DJ, producer and composer spent the next five years engineering Elaenia, all the while deejaying in cities across the globe and working towards his PhD in neuroscience. An incredibly special album that draws inspiration from classical, jazz, electronic music, soul and even Brazilian popular music, Elaenia-named after the bird of the same name-is the epitome of the forward-thinking Floating Points vision in 2015.

“The true follow up, 35 years later, to The KLF’s ‘Chill Out’”.
JD Twitch (Optimo).

"This record and film are just lovely. You need this in your life. Moo-Moo!” Balearic Mike (Down To The Sea & Back)

"The album is a perfect companion to the KLF classic, utilising the British countryside as the setting, occasionally reminding you that Mother Nature is not to be messed with.” Strictly Kev (DJ Food)

"A beautiful ambient journey into the landscape, taking the listener from reality to dream state and back again. A mystical realm full of mysterious chanting, rattling trains and sounds from the very depths of the earth."
Lally MacBeth & Matthew Shaw (Stone Club)

Recorded in a remote cabin on the Devon coast, STILL OUT is an album-length collaboration between musician-filmmakers – and childhood friends – Will Cookson and Tom Haverly. A reflection on friendship, landscape and the passing of time, it inspired a road trip from North Yorkshire to North Devon they took together in the summer of 2024, and forms the soundtrack to a film of the same name which had its premiere screening as part of Stroud Film Festival in March 2025.

Like the film, STILL OUT is also an oblique homage to The KLF’s iconic 1990 album Chill Out, which the Gloucestershire-based pair revisited after it turned up unexpectedly a few years back in Tom’s dad’s record collection. Inspired to create their own recording using a similarly free-spirited process, Will and Tom relocated to the Devon coast in late summer 2023, splicing together a 40-minute mix from their personal archive of recordings and found sounds in a remote cabin with no electricity or mobile reception.

"It came together using cut-and-paste techniques, with ongoing shifts and tweaks,” says Will. “The final result was an audio collage that felt like something [legendary hip hop producers] The Bomb Squad might make - if ambient music was the only material in their sample library."

Using ‘ambient’ as a starting-point rather than an end in itself, they took inspiration from across the musical spectrum – classic-period Brian Eno, Philip Glass, Bill Evans, plus outliers such as 80s singer-songwriter Virginia Astley and the late DJ-producer Andrew Weatherall. The connections, though, are anything but obvious as the audio shifts seamlessly from field recordings and spoken-word interludes to mood pieces and snatches of vintage pop.

Edited and assembled using freely available open source programs, the source material was often radically altered using tools such as “PaulStretch”, a digital sound-morphing algorithm that allows users to stretch audio files to extreme lengths.

"When we found ourselves in a creative slump or unsure how to navigate a tricky part, we'd say, ‘Let's put some syrup on it and slow it down,’” says Tom. “That always helped us get back on track during late-night recording sessions at the cabin."

Part-soundtrack, part-meditative experiment, STILL OUT is intended as a reflection on the mental and emotional shift that occurs when stepping away from the routine of daily life – an album that forms a celebration of our ever-changing relationship to the world around us and the mystery of what it means to pass through time and space.

STAFF COMMENTS

Barry says: Dewy, bucolic ambient music that's reminiscent of any number of post-club staples but with a uniquely shimmering tenderness and richly immersive production. There are moments of surprise too, and humour but the end result is something that comforts and soothes.

Goldie’s 1995 debut 'Timeless' is often described as one of the greatest dance music albums of all time. As one of the founders of Metalheadz, one of the most influential drum and bass labels, Goldie helped shape the sound of a generation, and a genre that has spanned over 3 decades.

“Listening to 'Timeless' is like taking an adventure. If the limits of music are the limits of society, then Timeless is going to create new worlds. It’s a record that travels from darkness to light across electronic oceans, across streetsoul, ambience and jazz.”

London Records celebrate 30 years of Timeless with limited edition vinyl formats, re-imagining the original white sleeve and putting the album on double vinyl for the first time since ’95, with new liner notes from Tim Barr.

‘Icon’ is an overused word when it comes to describing singers and musicians, but when it comes to Nina Simone there are few artists that the word describes more accurately. The ‘High Priestess Of Soul’ is surely one of the most iconic singers of the 20th century, and one whose fame and acclaim stretches far beyond conventional black American music circles.

Nina Simone has featured on Ace and Kent CDs before but this is the first time she’s had one all to herself. “Let It All Out” is the first and only Nina Simone collection to draw repertoire from every label she recorded for between the late 1950s to the late 1970s.

Not a traditional ‘Best Of’ or ‘Greatest Hits’ package (although the performances included here ARE among her very best, and do include most of her Greatest Hits!) it is a singles collection that presents Nina Simone’s soul and R&B-slanted 45s in chronological order. Invariably they are the definitive versions of the songs, whether she recorded the original versions or not.

As well as almost all of her American pop and R&B chart hits from 1960 onwards, “Let It All Out” also contains all of Simone’s UK chart hits from the same period – several of which were more successful here than they were back home, including both versions of her biggest British hit ‘Ain’t Got No; I Got Life’, a UK #2 that did not chart at all in the US as was the case with the belated UK Top 5 hit ‘My Baby Just Cares For Me’ which also made no chart impression on its home turf…

Carefully curated and concisely annotated, “Let It All Out” lets the listener in to two dozen of Nina Simone’s most celebrated singles. There have been many compilations of her works since she passed away 20+ years ago, but none that gets to the heart – and soul – of her catalogue in quite so direct a manner as this one does.

Following the breakthrough success of 'Suburban Light', the 2001 collection of The Clientele’s initial singles and EPs, tastemakers and aficionados were eager to hear what the trio of Alasdair MacLean (guitars, vocals), Mark Keen (drums, piano), and James Hornsey (bass) could make if set loose inside a studio to record a full-length album. What they emerged with from London’s Medina Road Studios in the fall of 2002 was tantalizing: Their already sharply realized motif of ’60s psychedelia and modern fuzz-pop took on inflections of jazz, particularly in how the space afforded by the LP format allowed for a keener articulation of atmosphere.

The Clientele stretch the early evening of 'The Violet Hour' out infinitely, manipulating the structured time of the pop song the way poets manipulate the structure of language—to capture place, mood, stray thoughts, disappointments, potential, and, above all, longing. It is a shimmering jewel of a record, its languid melodies and reverb-drenched choruses at once sublime and tragic, its hazy, dreamlike discursions at once recalling the warmth of a favorite record played over a midsummer rainstorm while yearning for the mist-veiled future of a yet unwritten night.

'The Violet Hour' has endured decades later as a signature album in
The Clientele’s catalog, not only perfecting the sound that made the band
a message-board phenomenon but revealing entirely new depth to it. In its wake, it was no longer possible to declare them one of the best-kept secrets in indie pop. The Clientele were, and remain, one of the genre’s most important figures, and 'The Violet Hour' was, and remains, one of their most vital statements: a lush invitation to their underground.

Peace and love in late 60s America did not come without parallel feelings of fear and confusion about the social situation – specifically about Vietnam. “Safe In My Garden” is the latest Ace compilation in an acclaimed series compiled by Bob Stanley – it’s a companion piece to the much-praised “State Of The Union (The American Dream In Crisis 1967 – 1973)” 

The music on “Safe In My Garden” is harmony-laden, beautifully produced soft rock. Sunshine pop, even - a melodic, innovative style of American music that grew in the mid-60s out of the folk and surf scenes, exemplified by the Beach Boys and the Mamas and Papas. You will hear orchestral arrangements, and soft boy-girl vocals. But it wasn’t made in isolation from what was going on in the outside world. There are clouds and minor chords, plenty of melancholy in those harmonies.

“Safe In My Garden” includes songs of escape (Mark Eric’s ‘Move With The Dawn’, the Groop’s ‘A Famous Myth’), loss (the Eighth Day’s ‘How Can I Stop Loving You’, the New Colony Six’s ‘Prairie Grey’), dreamscapes (Tommy James and the Shondells’ ‘She’, Nancy Priddy’s ‘Christina’s World’), rebirth (Smokey and his Sister’s ‘Creators Of Rain’), a simpler world (the Free Design’s ‘My Brother Woody’) and a philosophically sounder future (Chad & Jeremy’s ‘The Ark’, Best of Friends’ ‘Summer Sound’).

It contains some surprisingly dark messages paired with beautiful melodies, as well as songs of hope. Thousands of young musicians in cities, suburbs and small towns across the States from the mid to late 60s spent their mornings hiding from the mailman, dreading the draft. This is the Sound of Young America in the late 60s, keeping its fingers crossed.

'The Spice of Life', released in November 1969, stands as Marlena Shaw’s second—and final—studio album for Cadet Records, produced and arranged by the renowned Richard Evans and Charles Stepney.

From the opening, Shaw’s voice—both playful and powerful—cuts through the lush yet tight-knit arrangements, weaving together a vibrant tapestry of soul, proto-funk, jazz, gospel, and blues. The album features two defining classics: her deeply resonant original of ‘Woman of the Ghetto’ and a signature take on Ashford & Simpson’s ‘California Soul’, both staples in sampling culture (you'll probably find that you're more familiar with Shaw's material than you thought.)

Evans and Stepney’s arrangements are far from mere support—they’re panoramic and inventive. You’ll hear kalimba flourishes, psych-tinged guitar accents, and bongo-fueled organ textures that elevate each track, keeping the atmosphere rich but never overwhelming. Moments like the Bacharach-styled ‘Looking Through the Eyes of Love’ or the dramatic flair of ‘Stormy Monday’ showcase their widescreen sensibility and Shaw’s versatility.

Beneath its musical elegance, 'The Spice of Life' carries a weighty current of social commentary. Tracks such as ‘Woman of the Ghetto’ and the succinct, fierce ‘Liberation Conversation’ bring political and feminist themes into a soulful, expressive framework—adding unexpected depth to the sophisticated sonic palette.

This album offers an immersive journey through soul-jazz mastery, one that rewarded listeners with sampling gold for decades to come.

After three EPs on Dave A. Stewart’s Anxious label, Curve dropped debut album, 'Doppelgänger', in 1991. It was an artistic and commercial success that just missed out on the top ten in the UK and went top 20 in the US Heatseekers album chart, no mean feats for a UK ‘indie’ act at that time.

Co-produced by the band – Toni Halliday plus multi-instrumentalist Dean Garcia – and Flood, 'Doppelgänger' is a pioneering blend of electronic rhythms and distorted, reverb-drenched guitar layers, an approach that would proliferate and become widely popular after it was adopted by Garbage a few years later.

By the end of the decade, the album was being included in lists of the best “gothic” albums of all time and this century it has deservedly found its place in similar appraisals of so-called “shoegaze” records.

“Every song here is swimming in guitars – mashed, chewed, flanged, compressed, squally, howling, whatever,” wrote David Cavanagh in Q magazine. “But no matter how cacophonous the music gets… Halliday's voice is terrifically sensual and seductive, sounding just the pretty side of evil.”

Influential indie rock/electronic crossover outfit Curve’s second album was released by Anxious Records in September 1993. Co-produced by the band, Flood and Steve Osborne, it spawned two singles/EPs, 'Blackerthreetracker' (the lead track being the aggressive, hook-laden ‘Missing Link’) and the loping 'Superblaster', and although it wasn’t as successful as their debut 'Doppelgänger' in terms of chart performance, it was well received by the press, with particular praise for Toni Halliday’s powerful vocals and thoughtful lyrics as well as the lush but abrasive backing that was aptly described as falling somewhere between Ministry and the Sugarcubes.

In common with 'Doppelgänger', there are walls of searing guitar noise and pounding rhythms, but some of the tracks are softer and more reflective. As Paul Simpson put it on allmusic.com: “The synthesisers on ‘Crystal’ and ‘Unreadable Communication’ are close to the then-developing trance style, and the slower songs anticipate the direction Massive Attack (and others) would take during the course of the decade.”

Praise indeed.

Lovely little repress of Daft Punk's now iconic 'Random Access Memories', time to 'Get Lucky'!

Drawing inspiration of the sounds of the 70s and 80s, "Random Access Memories" serves up bouncing disco (Worldwide summer smash "Get Lucky" and "Lose Yourself To Dance"), prog jazz ("Giorgio by Moroder" and "Touch") and West Coast AOR ("Instant Crush", "Beyond" and "Fragments of Time"). The influences are similar to 2001's "Discovery", but rather than samples, the album instead features an all star roster of collaborators from all over the musical world recorded live in studio sessions.

Like in the days of Steely Dan, Harry Nilsson or Prince releasing a classic album every year (or less), ten years ago Mac DeMarco released the mini-LP 'Another One' only about a year after the meteorically successful album 'Salad Days'. An eight track release that expands the arsenal of Mac’s already impressive catalog, 'Another One' was conceived and recorded entirely by Mac at his house in Far Rockaway, Queens, and displays the maturity of Mac’s progression as a songwriter: a little bit more refined, a little bit more sophisticated than his previous albums, but nonetheless chock-full of the guts and soul of any classic Mac release.

The overall feeling of the mini-LP is lost love, or perhaps love never found, a topic that the world never tires of, and one that Mac can move through without it being a dour and somber experience. The record leaves you with the same satisfaction as an old Bogart movie: he’s still the hero, but he doesn’t quite get the girl.

Great singer/songwriters don’t need to reinvent themselves; they just need to keep going and let the songs out in the world, and with that, Mac DeMarco gave us 'Another One'.

This limited edition 10 year anniversary pressing collects both 'Another One' and newly remastered 'Another One Demos' on 2 LPs housed in a gatefold jacket and pressed on clear & blue Far Rockaway vinyl. Includes a 12 page booklet with new liners written by Mac, and previously unpublished photos from the era by Laura-Lynn Petrick.

Cindy Lee is the diva alter-ego of singer / guitarist Patrick Flegel, the one-time captain of heralded Canadian experimental guitar pop act, Women. In Flegel’s working on / as Cindy Lee exclusively over recent years, their songwriting makes a move toward high atmospherics, often achieving a mysterious sweetness rooted equally in beauty and ache.

As Cindy Lee’s third long-form statement, 'Act Of Tenderness' makes use of antipodal themes to create a living sound: static with grace, distortion and sugar, all masterfully arranged with crooked nods toward pop classicism. The layered vocal on 'Power And Possession' creates a palpable haunt, bringing historical girl-group lament to choir-esque heights. The feedback shriek and industrial grind of 'Bonsai Garden' provides near-operatic damage, yet never stumbles into the irrevocably grave. These snowy pieces give the album a decidedly cinematic feel, albeit one bent more towards Eraserhead.

'Model Express' a collection of B-sides and lost hits, first appeared as a self-released edition of 100 gold cassettes. The arch, filmic drama of Cindy Lee's songwriting – realized with keyboards, guitars, aching voice and collaged, lo-fi production – traverses a wide range of emotional and sonic terrain. The red velvet psych-pop of 'What Can I Do' gives way to the fluid 'Diamond Ring' like radio bursts from space. 'Model Express' finds Flegel at both their most experimental and immediately melodic, and this first-time vinyl release recognizes the collected tracks as a pillar in the Cindy Lee catalogue.

On October 12th & 13th, 2024, American Football performed two sold- out shows at the El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles - part of the band’s 25th anniversary tour for their self-titled debut album. Featuring guest appearances from Ethel Cain and M.A.G.S., these special shows were recorded for American Football’s first and only live album, 'American Football (Live in Los Angeles)'. To coincide with the album’s release, the band teamed up with Prophet Media and director Steph Rinzler for the release of a full-length concert film, featuring candid interviews with the band, Ethel Cain, Yvette Young, and M.A.G.S. Both the film and album captures the legacy and unexpected staying power of a group that helped define a genre.

After quietly releasing their self-titled debut album in 1999 while still in college, American Football disbanded after the album’s release to focus on other projects, only to reunite 15 years later to a fanbase that had been consistently growing throughout the underground / emo scene. The album later appeared on Rolling Stone’s “40 Greatest Emo Albums of All Time” list at #6, with Pitchfork giving its deluxe reissue the “Best New Reissue” title, calling it the “most influential album in the genre.”

'Grass' - the legendary “lost” psychedelic / experimental rock masterpiece featuring members of Espers, Vetiver and Brightblack Morning Light. A band of six individuals who met, played some shows, recorded an album, and then went dormant until, in Spring - or thereabouts - they revived their cherished document in hopes that it would not again go to seed.

New England in the early 2000s was home to a plethora of kindred psychedelic, experimental, folk, and rock bands who played shows together, recorded each other’s records, and otherwise felt something like a large extended family. Grass was formed, for a brief moment in time, out of members of several of those bands, from across Vermont, New York and Philadelphia: Espers, Currituck Co., Feathers, Brightblack Morning Light, and The Valerie Project (a band solely devoted to live soundtracking the 1970 cult classic Czech film Valerie and Her Week of Wonders). During the late summer of 2006 the band sequestered themselves in a barn in rural Northern California and wrote or arranged the bulk of the material that would go on to be the album. Many songs emerged out of group improvisation, others were
brought to the band either partially or fully formed, for collaborative arrangement.

The album was recorded throughout 2006 at band member Greg Week’s Hexham Head studio in Philadelphia. The all analog studio solely used 2-inch tape at the time. Improvisations from the previous writing sessions were refined and recreated in the studio. Dueling acid leads were conjured by Weeks and Kevin Barker, and the band’s two drummers, Otto Hauser and Ben McConnell, held court. A range of vintage and invented instruments were also played; omnichord and space echo (expertly wielded by Brooke Sietinsons), Fender Rhodes, and a homemade electrified gamelan Meara O’Reilly designed and built, fondly dubbed “The Jamelan” by members of the band. And then the project languished for almost two decades.

By 2023, Weeks and Barker had begun discussing the album again in earnest. It was decided to remix the tracks at Miner Street Studios with seasoned mix engineers Brian McTear and Amy Morrissey. Label Spiritual Pajamas got involved, and the emergence of this musical time capsule was set.

Aged to perfection at 31 years young, '76:14' is described as "unfathomably beautiful out-of-time masterpiece“ in The Guardian's ‘1,000 Albums to Hear Before You Die’ list. Certainly, on release it was clear that it was something special, and not just because it was named after its total running time (though in fact it is shorter) and each track is also titled after its respective length.

Tom Middleton and Mark Pritchard, the duo behind Global Communication and other aliases, stated in the sleeve notes that this was intended to avoid the implication that there was any specific meaning or subject mater to their compositions, leaving the listener free to interpret it according to their own imagination. And as the record is a certified classic of 1990s ambient and electronic experimentalism (clearly influenced by greats like Vangelis and Brian Eno), sweetly melodic, soothing and largely beatless, it is almost impossible to listen to it without eliciting extreme relaxation and flights of mental fancy.

As the Guardian put it, it’s a great example of a musical timeline that ran parallel to Britpop, “where Orbital, not Oasis, were the most important band at Glastonbury and a couple of chaps in thrall to Detroit techno, made an album while looking out over a field of cows in Somerset.”

Daphni's 'Joli Mai' finally gets a repress after being long deleted for several years. Here's what r Baz had to say about it in 2017:

"It seems to be 'A thing' that Four Tet and Dan Snaith (Daphni / Caribou) release stuff very near each-other, and this is no exception. This time we get a fascinating and satisfying jaunt through funk, borderline ambient and downright tribal club tackle, peppered with the ever-present vocal snippets. Lovely."

'Hail to the Thief Live Recordings 2003-2009' is a live album that allowed the band to re-evaluate their relationship with their 6th studio album, 'Hail To The Thief'.

The album comprises performances of songs in London, Amsterdam, Buenos Aires, and Dublin between 2003 and 2009. The album was mixed by Ben Baptie and mastered by Matt Colton.

Speaking about the new live album, Thom Yorke says:

“In the process of thinking of how to build arrangements for the Shakespeare Hamlet/Hail To The Thief theatre production, I asked to hear some archive live recordings of the songs. I was shocked by the kind of energy behind the way we played. I barely recognised us, and it helped me find a way forward. We decided to get these live recordings mixed and released (it would have been insane to keep them for ourselves). It has all been a very cathartic process. We very much hope you enjoy them.”

Thom Yorke recently co-created the critically acclaimed Hamlet Hail to the Thief, a frenetic adaptation of Shakespeare’s Hamlet, set to a deconstructed score of reworked songs from 2003’s Hail to the Thief. Rolling Stone UK said of the new production, “The biggest testament to Yorke and his co-writers that these worlds collide so seamlessly, as if they were always meant to be together.”

STAFF COMMENTS

Barry says: A wonderfully reimagined selection of live cuts of Radiohead's incendiary 6th LP, Hail To The Thief. Brilliantly bridging the gap between the original LP and their most recent foray into stage production. A wonderfully evocative display from one of the best live bands going.

Dark Entries honours the late disco innovator Patrick Cowley with Hard Ware, a special double 12" released to celebrate what would have been his 75th birthday. The legendary American hi-NRG favourite has many groundbreaking synth-driven anthems to his name and left behind a vast archive before his untimely death in 1982. Since 2009, Dark Entries has unearthed his lesser-known works from porn soundtracks to unreleased demos. Hard Ware concludes a trilogy that began with Male Box in 2022 and went on to From Behind 2024. It offers ten tracks of cosmic funk, sleazy synthpop and disco oddities and some fine collaborations with Jeanie Tracy and Peggy Gibbons. This expansive collection really underlines that Cowley was a visionary lost too soon.

STAFF COMMENTS

Barry says: A masterclass in huge, funky synth grooves and powerful disco chug. Cowley's reissues catalogue seems to span everything from funk to floaty Balearic-tinged downbeat, to hi-nrg dancefloor business, and here we get it all in one fantastic place. Legendary.

Formed in Manchester in 1976 and built around its founder and only constant member Mark E. Smith the band existed in some form or other (with numerous line-up changes) until Smith’s death in 2018. Initially associated with the punk movement of the late 1970s, the group's music has gone through several stylistic changes over the years, but is often characterised by an abrasive guitar-driven sound and frequent use of repetition, and is always underpinned by Smith's distinctive vocals and often cryptic lyrics.

The band were long associated with John Peel, who championed them from early on in their career and cited The Fall as his favorite band, famously explaining, "They are always different; they are always the same."

Hannah Peel’s third album, originally released in September 2017, is a seven-movement odyssey composed for analogue synthesizers and traditional 29-piece colliery brass band.

Mary Casio: Journey to Cassiopeia explores one person's journey to outer space, by recounting the story of an unknown, elderly, pioneering, electronic musical stargazer and her lifelong dream to leave her terraced home in the mining town of Barnsley, South Yorkshire, to see Cassiopeia for herself.

The brass band and rhythm section – ‘Tubular Brass’ - features the top UK championship brass band players who were recorded live on location in The Barnsley Civic Theatre with Peter Gabriel’s Real World studio team. These recordings were then expertly combined with Peel’s detailed, analogue synth layered production to create a wholly unique, collaborative sound; a first of its kind both live and on record.

The re-issue comes with updated artwork by original designer, Grammy award winning, Jonathan Barnbrook (David Bowie collaborator on albums ‘Blackstar’ and ‘The Next Day’) and remastered audio on Berry-coloured vinyl.

During her teenage years in Yorkshire, Peel played trombone in brass bands: marching at weekends and wearing ‘dickie bows’ at competitions and so naturally the ‘brass’ sound has become very much a part of her creative DNA. This love has recently come full circle once again, as Peel is the presenter of the series ‘Brass Banding with Hannah Peel’ for BBC Radio 3.

Mary Casio explores two very different worlds – the power of the brass band players combined with the sub-bass impact and air resonating force of the synths but Peel also creates a very human and intimate, at times fragile sounding record through her collection of ‘breathing’ vintage electronics, found sounds, the nuances of the individual brass instruments and the subtle ambience of her voice combining with the real and raw breathing, shuffling and ‘spit’ of the players themselves.

Originally released as an edition of 50 lathe-cut LPs housed in silk-screened jackets in 2020 (fast on the heels of 'What's Tonight To Eternity'), 'Cat O' Nine Tails' has long intrigued die-hard Cindy Lee fans with its combination of the classic songwriting that would dominate 'Diamond Jubilee' a few years later and an actual suite of classical songs under the title itself.

Opening with the gothic soap opera theme of 'Our Lady Of Sorrows' into the manic exploration of 'Cat O' Nine Tails', onto the dusty western walk through Patrick Flegel's lovely guitar work on 'Faith Restored', the album seems to soundtrack the coolest movie the late '60s ever produced. All of this builds to the lush and sweeping ballad of bruised hearts that introduces that beautiful voice via 'Love Remains'.

Side Two sees 2024 live show closer 'Cat O' Nine Tails III' complete the suite to epic effect, before introducing the absolute showstopper that is 'I Don't Want To Fall In Love Again'. It is tender and fragile in that way that only Flegel can make both familiar and unique. Closing with the ethereal soul shuffle stomp of 'Bondage Of The Mind', the album showcases nine songs from an essential time in the Cindy Lee evolution.

Cindy Lee is the brainchild of singer/guitarist Patrick Flegel. While some may know Flegel from his time spent in Canadian experimental indie band Women, Cindy Lee has spent the past four years crafting songs that push and pull in opposing directions – from tales of tragedy laced with haywire distortion to moments of breathtaking beauty.

On 'Malenkost', Flegel combines everything that makes Cindy Lee so essential: heart-wrenching romantic pleas, rough shards of noise and twilit ballads. Featuring the lo-fi pop single 'A Message From The Aching Sky', Malenkost sounds like Deerhunter playing The Supremes or vice versa.

'Sleepy Eyed' has been expanded into a double LP, and the refreshed artwork includes new photos and images of ephemera plus notes written by the band and producer John Agnello about the recording of the album.

'Sleepy Eyed' marked a turning point for the band. Their previous album, 1993’s 'Big Red Letter Day' was a huge album for them, landing on the Billboard charts and bringing them to new levels of fame when 'Late At Night' was heavily featured in a pivotal scene of the short-lived mid-90s cult TV show My So Called Life which starred Claire Danes and Jared Leto. The song was not only in the episode, but the band was also shown performing it.

The making of that album was a massive, glossy undertaking, recorded in LA with huge producers, and as Bill Janovitz noted “It was a full-on, old-school peak-analog record production”. The band’s inclination for their follow-up was to bring it back to a more stripped down and raw recording situation. Bill said, “I was thinking of 'Some Girls' and 'Tonight's the Night', and those electric Dylan records like 'Highway 61 Revisited' and 'Blonde on Blonde', where you could hear instruments bleeding into each other, snare drum rattling from the guitars and bass, and off-microphone stuff, and even mistakes, where it just felt like you were in the room with the band.”

They found the perfect partner in this plan with producer John Agnello and the perfect place to make it – at Dreamland Recordings Studio in upstate New York. Tom Maginnis noted that “there were really no distractions, and we ended up spending long days into the night at the studio and just crashing at the house to sleep. We would do take after take to get the right basic track, so it felt like playing many live sets in a single day.”

The songs on 'Sleepy Eyed', which include an impressive opening trio of three of their most popular - 'Tangerine', 'Summer' and 'Kitchen Door' are amongst many fan favorites. Their trademark harmonies, timeless songwriting and guitar fueled passion is perfectly exemplified on this release.

Buffalo Tom (Bill Janovitz, Chris Colbourn and Tom Maginnis) formed at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst in 1986 - a breeding ground of post punk guitar bands like Dinosaur Jr. and Pixies. The three longstanding bandmates recognize the achievement of their longevity as a creative unit - 10 albums, 40 years as a band. Nice work if you can get it!

Blondie’s 'No Exit' marked their first studio album in 17 years upon its release in February 1999, following 'The Hunter' (1982). The album features the UK number one hit 'Maria', alongside 'Nothing Is Real But The Girl' and 'No Exit'. Recorded at Electric Lady Studios, Red Night Recording, and Chung King House of Metal in New York, the original release included 14 tracks. Later CD and cassette versions featured bonus material from Blondie’s 1998 Lyceum performance and an additional track, Hot Shot.

The 2025 Deluxe Reissue will include all original tracks, remastered, alongside a selection of rare and previously unreleased bonus mixes. This marks the album’s first official vinyl release, featuring rare and unseen photography plus detailed liner notes.

Exactly 30 years ago, The Young Gods released their fifth studio album, ‘Only Heaven’. This timeless record marked the band’s shift towards a more ambient sound.

A worthy heir to psychedelic influences, resulting insonic material of extreme purity, ‘Only Heaven’ confirmed the Swiss band’s international breakthrough, which began with their ‘TV Sky’ album.

Very few albums can claim to surpass everything that ‘Only Heaven’ contains. Very few artists can claim to have put so much genius into their music.Once again, Roli Mosimann (the fourth member ofthe band) is at the helm of production.

When asked about the most influential bands of the early 1990s, everyone from Mike Patton (Faith No More), Devin Townsend, Maynard James Keenan (Tool), Al Jourgensen (Ministry), Trent Treznor (Nine Inch Nails), to The Edge (U2) immediately mention The Young Gods. All connoisseurs will tell you that they have their place in any ultimate record collection.

Eco-repress of King Gizzard's beast of an album 'I'm In Your Mind Fuzz'. Four clicks and we're off, galloping through realms on a phase-shifted, hydra-headed, many-armed and muscular monster. This Australian beast of a band with a bear of a name and a thick herd of members delivers many things on this warped song-cycle: a skeleton of propulsive kraut-beat fleshed out with a liberal dose of citric sweetness; flutes and harmonicas bleeding through the mix often and welcomingly; an early-'80s heavy metal / fantasy vibe; and many lovely left turns into psychedelic mellowing, both groovily and sometimes with just a dash of DMT dread. The whole thing is just gooey with tape manipulations, saturations and wah pedal, yet many tasty tidbits bubble to the top. The resulting noise is like Foxygen on a week-long mushroom bender with Pond.

Starting out in 2010 as a solid garage rock group, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard followed their collective muse wherever it chose to lead them. For their latest opus, 'Paper Mache Dream Balloon', they initially thought it was going to be filled with the darker, heavier material that the band has been playing live of late. But frontman Stu Mackenzie soon decided that it was time to put aside the longer, more conceptual pieces and go in a completely new direction. On previous records King Gizzard has channeled many different sounds: From heavily distorted, kraut-driven rock on their 2014 album 'I'm In Your Mind Fuzz' to expansive, almost jazzy, Dead-like head trips on 'Quarters!' Or as Mackenzie puts it, "I always wanted to be a band where you would expect the unexpected each time, with each album being treated like a different phase." Hence, the band's seventh album was recorded using nothing but acoustic instruments. Mackenzie elaborated on this with: "Acoustic guitars, flute, double bass, fiddle, harmonica, drum kit, clarinet. Whatever we could find really." The result is a lovely, lilting pop masterpiece that still evokes the same intoxicating exuberance as King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard's most recent work, but with a more pastoral, communal feel to it.

'Sketches Of Brunswick East' is King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard 3rd album of five in 2017 and a collaboration with LA’s Mild High Club. Just when you think you have King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard sussed they throw a curveball - in the wake of two albums released in 2017 already, including most recently the dystopian end-times concept album 'Murder Of The Universe', which tackled in no uncertain terms the rise of robots and the downfall of mankind, comes 'Sketches Of Brunswick East', an entirely altered beast.

Australia’s finest and most productive rock band have done this before, of course: while the world was still reeling from their 2014 breakthrough psych-punk masterpiece 'I'm In Your Mind Fuzz' (2014) they casually released 2015’s expectation-confounding 'Paper Mache Dream Balloon' (2015), a pastoral, sun-drenched acid-folk album. 'Sketches Of Brunswick East' is a collaboration between King Gizzard and Mild High Club, the Los Angeles based tripster troupe signed to Stones Throw Records and led by Alex Brettin – the two bands formed a strong friendship touring together throughout the USA, Europe, and Australia. Recorded at the band’s own Flightless HQ in East Brunswick, Melbourne Australia earlier this year and mixed at Stones Throw studios in L.A. it’s the third of five projected albums to be released in 2017.

A ‘collection of songs’ is the most accurate description for this album. Unlike most of King Gizz's releases, 'Gumboot Soup' isn’t held together by any semblance of a concept, leading many to dub it a sequel to their 2014 hotchpotch 'Oddments'. Still, there is one relatively consistent element: 'Gumboot Soup' is Gizz’s most thorough embrace of melody ever, with the band going all in on infectious psych-pop tunes. 'Beginner’s Luck' – not just because of its gambling-based lyrics – does this particularly well, sprinkled with Beatles influence and topped off with an exhilaratingly erratic wah-wah guitar solo. The penultimate track 'I’m Sleepin’ In commits to this idea even further, with a beat so catchy it practically begs to be clapped along to.

Elsewhere, the band blend this direction with the jazz-prog rhythms of the previous two records 'Polygondwanaland' and 'Sketches of Brunswick East'. 'Barefoot Desert' and 'The Last Oasis' – both fronted by harmonica player Ambrose Kenny-Smith – achieve this in two distinct ways. The former’s tight groove and yelpy vocals give it a slight Talking Heads vibe, whilst the latter’s heavenly vocals and lush instrumentation sound like a hypnagogic re-imagining of a 'SoBE' track. 'Muddy Water' – as well as being the third Gizz song named after a description of water – is an enthralling prog folk flurry that wouldn’t sound out of place on a Jethro Tull album, elaborately intertwining acoustic guitar, bass and drum rhythms. Later on, Cook Craig fronts 'Down the Sink', a delectable slice of funk rock unlike anything else the group have done before.

“Her darkest, heaviest and most personal album yet . . . a haunting, doomy exercise in loud-quiet dynamics.” Rolling Stone // Sleep paralysis plagues singer/songwriter Chelsea Wolfe, and that strange intersection of the conscious and the unconscious has inadvertently manifested itself within her work. Across the span of her first four albums, there is an underlying tension, a distorted and nebulous territory where dark shadows hover along the edges of the sublime and the graceful. But until now, Wolfe’s trials and tribulations with the boundaries between dreams and reality have only been a subconscious influence on her work. With her fifth album, Abyss, she deliberately confronts those boundaries and crafts a score to that realm she describes as the “hazy afterlife… an inverted thunderstorm… the dark backward… the abyss of time.” Chelsea Wolfe’s material has always felt intensely private, from the almost voyeuristic bedroom-production aesthetic of her debut album The Grime and the Glow to the stark themes and atmospheres of 2013’s Pain Is Beauty. “Abyss is meant to have the feeling of when you’re dreaming, and you briefly wake up, but then fall back asleep into the same dream, diving quickly into your own subconscious,” says Wolfe. To conjure this in-between world, Wolfe continued her ongoing collaboration with multi-instrumentalist and co-writer Ben Chisholm and drummer Dylan Fujioka, with Ezra Buchla brought on board to play viola and Mike Sullivan (Russian Circles) enlisted to contribute guitar. The ensemble traveled to Dallas, TX to record with producer John Congleton (Swans, St. Vincent). In the back of her mind burned the words of designer Yohji Yamamoto: "Perfection is ugly. Somewhere in the things humans make, I want to see scars, failure, disorder, distortion.” The resulting eleven songs reflect that philosophy as they smoulder with human frailty, intimacy, quiet passion, anxiety, and deep longing. “Sleep and dream issues have followed me my whole life,” remarks Wolfe as she revisits notes from the writing and recording sessions. In a way, these issues have become a part of Chelsea Wolfe’s identity, for whom the notion of sleep as an escape has been subverted. Abyss captures this dichotomy, this battle between the soothing and the upsetting, and demonstrates why Chelsea Wolfe has become one of the most intriguing songwriters of the decade.

The Blue Aeroplanes are Bristol's longest running band and a true art-rock institution who have inspired generations of post-punk and alternative groups including R.E.M., Radiohead, and Manic Street Preachers.

'Outsider Art - The Other Best Of The Blue Aeroplanes 1985-2025' is the essential companion piece to 'Magical Realism', the band's critically acclaimed first careerspanning retrospective. The collection takes a deep dive into four decades of deepcuts, fan-favourites, and live-staples that have cemented The Blue Aeroplanes as true cult heroes.

This new compilation also unearths a trove of previously unreleased material from the archives, including recordings from BBC 'In Concert' ('What It Is' and 'Breaking In My Heart'), and a brand- new version of 'Winter Sun' captured in 2024 during the band's legendary annual residency at The Fleece in Bristol.

'Outsider Art' features a 24-page booklet with new sleeve notes, lyrics, and rare photographs from the band's archives. Remastered by Phil Kinrade at AIR Mastering.

The definitive career-spanning collection: from post-punk beginnings to stadium-sized synth-pop and beyond.

'Industry & Seduction' is the first ever Thompson Twins retrospective to be curated in collaboration with band members Tom Bailey, Alannah Currie, and Joe Leeway. Bringing together music from across their groundbreaking career, this collection captures the full evolution of one of the most adventurous and inventive pop acts of the 1980s, and includes music from their later, critically overlooked Babble project.

From early experimental cuts and underground curios to global hits like 'Hold Me Now', 'Love On Your Side', 'Doctor! Doctor!', and 'We Are Detective', the collection shines a light on the band’s constant reinvention, from art-school chaos to pristine pop, dub-influenced dance to dreamy, post-rave soundscapes. It’s a bold, brilliant musical journey built on contrast: digital edge meets emotional pull — 'Industry and Seduction'.

An essential celebration of one of pop’s most distinctive voices — as provocative as they were playful, as experimental as they were accessible.

Finally one of the most requested, eagerly anticipated and generally exciting LPs of the year has finally landed. That's right, ambient maverick, electronic legend, jungle revivalist and abstract jazzer Four Tet is back with his first full length (longer than two conceptual suites) LP of brand new material in four years. Leaving the archival "0181" to one side, Kieran's last two LP outings were the extended and mind expanding ethno-lectronica of "Morning / Evening" and the dislocated, narcotic and blunted jungle of "Beautiful Rewind". Much to the delight of the KH traditionalists out there (cough...Barry) there's nary a spinback in sight on the blissful "New Energy", the producer opting instead to stroll calmly through the ambient pads, twinkling sequences and sublime textures which kept us company from "Everything Ecstatic" through to "There Is Love In You". Float away on the chilled waters of "Alap", nod along to the harp-led downbeat of "Two Thousand And Seventeen" and smile along to the soft focus stylings and pastoral glitch of "LA Trance". The B-side brings the "Ringer" style hypno-rhythm and "Love In You" beauty of "Lush", before darting off into the skitterish BOC beat space of the jazz flecked "Scientists". Boasting subtle breakbeats, cinematic swells and pulsating electronics, not to mention a bewitching kalimba refrain, "You Are Loved" sees out the first disc in sublime fashion.
Onto the second platter and "SW9 9SL" (a nod to Four Tet's Brixton Academy all nighters) is a streamlined club banger decorated by shuffling percussion, rumbling bass and a massive, hands aloft breakdown. "10 Midi" offers a moment of calm after that dancefloor burner and leads nicely into the harpy downbeat of "Memories". Referencing the mantra like vocals of "Morning/ Evening" and "There Is Love...", "Daughter" is a gossamer blend of reversed vocals, cascading melodies and soothing bass - the perfect companion to the astral, ethno-techno of "Planet". Pulsating space sounds, scattered vocals and trilling kora dip in and out of the spectral arps, riding a sturdy 4/4 thump into the furthest reaches of our galaxy. All that remains is to buy yourself a copy, sit comfortably by the speakers and rest easy in the knowledge Four Tet's done it again.

STAFF COMMENTS

Barry says: Combing the brilliant off-kilter jazztronic excursions of early years with the more downbeat, dancefloor-orientated kinetic outings of late (not that late) has worked a treat. Properly beautiful.

A 15 track compilation of Demo’s and B-sides and other unreleased tracks from 2001-2006. Only 100 copies were produced of this cassette only release to tie in with the rerelease of These were The Earlies. 

Different Class (originally released October 30, 1995) is Pulp's most successful album, achieving multi-platinum sales and international acclaim, winning the 1996 Mercury Music Prize and debuting at #1 on the UK Album Chart. It also produced four Top Ten singles, including ‘Common People’.

4LP Description:
Four months prior to the release of the album, the band headlined the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury Festival on Saturday 24 June. To celebrate the 30th anniversary of what is widely regarded as one of the best records of the era, this legendary Glastonbury performance, the audio wholly restored and released here for the first time, has been paired with the remastered album (each cut over 2 LPs) and is released as a deluxe 4LP boxset.

The audio has been remastered/mastered by Geoff Pesche at Abbey Road, overseen by Jarvis Cocker and Mark Webber, and is presented in a sturdy slipcase with a comprehensive, 28-page booklet featuring extensive notes from new interviews with the band members, plus previously unseen images from photographers Rankin and Donald Milne (who took the photos for the original release) and the band’s own archives. The original ‘aperture’ sleeve design, which invited purchasers to “Choose your own front cover”, came with six double- sided inserts/art cards of alternative cover images depicting cardboard cutouts of the band members in a variety of situations. This has been fully recreated and a 12” by 12” poster featuring miniatures of the cutouts themselves is also included.

Originally released on Mon 22 August 2005, the Furries’ third and final album to be recorded by Epic Records, Love Kraft is reissued on double vinyl and  2CDs, including the 22-track bonus CD, Kiss Me With Apocalypse  via the Cardiff-based independent label, Strangetown Records. Four previously unheard tracks are drawn from the vaults, including the squidgy ELO-stomp of drummer, Daf Ieuan-led Rock ‘N’ Roll Flu, plus the distorted space-jam of Cae Marw, the band’s deep-bass sketch of Palo Alto and ghostly, percussive morsel of Bedw Arian.

The album followed six previous albums by the band, including their statement debut album, Fuzzy Logic in 1996, melding an attention-demanding mix of literary, narcotic and musical influences. Maintaining a shape that was ill-fitting in the jigsaw of other 90’s guitar bands, their follow-up, UK Top Ten album, Radiator brought the hooky squelch of the bona fide indie dancefloor classic, The International Language of Screaming. The next decade saw the release of the first Top 20-charting, Welsh language album, Mwng (2000), followed by further experimentation and commercial success with Rings Around The World (2001) and Phantom Power (2003).

'Love Kraft’s sense of cohesion, collaboration and free-flow of rich harmony has been credited to the five-piece escaping Wales to record in the shimmering heat of Figueres, Catalunya. Bringing famed Beastie Boys producer, Mario Caldato Jr along with them for the ride, the travelling band’s stay in the Catalonian hometown of Salvador Dali included found sounds, boozy petrol stations, gastronomic revelations and, finally, a rich album of strings, synths and opulent vocal harmonies.

While eventually finding their way to Baha, near to Rio di Janeiro to mix the album 'Love Kraft’s story began in Wales and Pleasure Foxxx Studios, where the band began to craft the album’s songs. Embracing the landmark of a seventh album, notably coming after the 2004 release of their first ‘best of…’ package, 'Songbook: The Singles, Vol. 1', Super Furry Animals pooled ideas and affected further democracy in their songwriting, taking a load off traditional lead-writer and front man, Gruff Rhys, and sharing in lead vocal duties (aside from the microphone-averse bassist, Guto Pryce).

'Love Kraft' was the first Super Furry Animals album recorded to hard disc instead of multi-track tape, and found the band typically explorative and open to happenstance. Zoom’s opening splash into the recording studio’s swimming pool is accompanied by the on-location, pool table samples found elsewhere on the album. 

STAFF COMMENTS

Andy says: Twenty years ago? Wow! I always really loved this album, starting with the brilliant artwork and then journeying inwards to the land of dreams and whimsy and layers of sound. My favourite song is Lazer Beam which just packs everything this glorious madcap band does into four magical, spiralling minutes. Another megarecord and a timely reissue.

System Olympia presents a bold, cinematic compilation that redefines the sound of sensuality. Love Language is an 18-track double-vinyl release pressed on both heavyweight velvet red and white linen colour vinyl, also a deluxe heavyweight black vinyl. The CD and full-length digital package expand the experience to 20 tracks, that comes mixed & unmixed. It’s accompanied by a provocative, limited-edition 24-page fanzine, exclusive to 18+ audiences.

This is not just a compilation, Love Language is a manifesto. A carefully curated sonic journey through eroticism, artistic rebellion, and liberation, it spans nearly five decades of music and features exclusive edits and rare gems that illuminate System Olympia’s radical aesthetic vision.

Various Artists – curated by System Olympia "Love Language"
Since her emergence on the electronic underground, System Olympia has carved out a distinct, sensual sonic universe, equal parts vulnerable and defiant. With Love Language, she presents her most audacious project to date: a compilation rooted in what she calls The Aesthetics of Sexual Desire in Sound.

It’s a daring declaration that desire is more than a feeling - it’s a language. Across 20 tracks, including her own sultry opener “The Heat Of The Night (feat. REINEN)” and a rare System Olympia edit of Working Men’s Club’s “Ploys”, this compilation speaks in rhythms and textures that evoke longing, intimacy, and ecstatic release.

This is not a traditional compilation. System Olympia’s sequencing is cinematic and deliberate. Every track a scene in a film that exists only in the listener’s imagination. From the retro-futurist seduction of Flavia Fortunato’s Italo gem “Se Tu Vuoi” to the deep, extended tension of Musclecars’ “Running Out of Time,” each piece plays its part in an arc of anticipation, climax, and reflection.

Uniting artists as diverse as Daniele Baldelli, Piero Umiliani, and DJ Rocca, Love Language refuses boundaries of genre, era, or expectation. It dances between vintage Italo-disco, dreamy electronica, sweaty club tracks, and avant-garde jazz, forming a rich tapestry of sound and sensation.

System Olympia explains, “This is music for lovers, outsiders, and dreamers. It's a rebellion made of velvet and basslines.”

The accompanying 24-page fanzine insert, restricted to adults, further deepens the narrative, with erotic visual fragments and poetic texts that amplify the compilation’s raw, sensual energy. A tangible extension of the music’s spirit, the zine invites listeners to step into Olympia’s world and engage their senses fully.

As much a provocation as it is a celebration, Love Language is a deeply personal curation and a radical act of creative freedom. It champions eroticism as art, desire as dialogue, and music as a liberatory force.

Compiled by Dubby & Antal, "Techno Kayō Volume One" is a dancefloor-friendly selection focusing on Japanese proto-techno, electro-pop, and synthpop from the 1980s. Pressed at 45RPM. Comes with OBI and insert with liner notes.

Note: This release is only available on physical format (vinyl & CD) / no downloads will be available.

In late-1970s Japan, a new and unique genre called techno kayō emerged, blending catchy pop melodies with the futuristic sounds of synthesizers and drum machines. Rooted in the older kayōkyoku style, it was influenced by European electronic acts like Kraftwerk, but had a distinctly Japanese flair. Artists such as Yellow Magic Orchestra pioneered this retro-futuristic sound, creating music that felt both nostalgic and ahead of its time.

Dubby, owner of the legendary record shop Ondas in Tokyo, was one of the first to make Japanese music available to the outside world. He has teamed up with Antal, co-founder of the Amsterdam-based, Rush Hour Records, to release the first in a series of compilations.

Artwork from Johann Kauth (Stenze Quo)

STAFF COMMENTS

15 years since their fantasy disco scene-defining 1st volume, Johnny Jewel’s IDIB lasso Sally Shapiro, Desire, Farah, Lovelock and the kreme of their field for a 27-song, 2-hour re-up

Where previous volumes took their sweet time to arrive, ‘Volume 4’ graces the ‘floor only two years since the last, and nobody’s complaining. From its slo-mo, dry-iced covers of Jennifer Lopez’ ‘Waiting For Tonight’, Don Henley’s ’Boys of Summer’ and even flipping R.E.M.’s ‘Losing My Religion’, thru to exclusive pearls by our disco queen crush, Sally Shapiro, and Johnny Jewel as Desire, it’s the ideal soundtrack for late summer into silly season.

“A curiously tender, black-hearted modern soul classic; the last great record of the millennium, if we’re being pretentious,” was how NME described Death in Vegas’ second album (1999), which took its name from the Contino Rooms in London (where it was recorded) and was nominated for the 2000 Mercury Music Prize.

Perhaps the most accomplished expression of the outfit’s patented atmospheric blend of electronica and groove-driven rock, the album includes an impressive cast of guest vocalists. Dot Allison, Bobbie Gillespie, Jim Reid and Iggy Pop all provide star turns and the latter steals the show. Confessing to being a murderer living in a cemetery would be over-the-top from most other artists but for Iggy it makes perfect sense and his track, ‘Aisha’ is the literal and figurative centrepiece of the album.

Many of the tracks were featured in film, advertisement and video game soundtracks, notably the opener, ‘Dirge’. It was used by Levi’s and at least five different films in the decade after the album was issued, which has helped to make it the band’s biggest streamer.

Taking its name from the film of the same name directed by the notorious Kenneth Anger, this is the third album by Death In Vegas, who this year issued their seventh, 'Death Mask'.

Spotlighting a variety of guest singers (including Liam Gallagher, Hope Sandoval and Paul Weller), as well as string arrangements by Indian violinist and composer Dr. Subramaniam Lakshminarayana, like its predecessor several songs from the album received significant extra exposure through their use in advertisements, film and television soundtracks. ‘Girls’, for instance was used in Sofia Coppola’s hit movie Lost In Translation.

All in all, Scorpio Rising is a highly satisfying blend of experimental beats and good old-fashioned guitar rock containing some acclaimed performances, perhaps most notably on the title track, sung by Gallagher, which cheekily borrowed its riff from Status Quo’s 1967 hit ‘Pictures of Matchstick Men’ – and paid Francis Rossi for the privilege.

First time vinyl edition of the 2002 album by Little Axe, the blues-infused alter ego of guitarist Skip McDonald, member of The Sugarhill Gang, Tackhead, and more, and musical arranger on a large swathe of the On-U Sound back catalogue.

“A dreamy, hazy cipher of an album that settles slowly and lazily over the listener, displacing his or her sense of time and space.Snippets of singers wafting ghostly out of the ether only to re-enter the mist and wind themselves around a slow, sultry, steamy rhythm, a heavily seductive mix that slithers around McDonald's awesome and understated guitar playing. It comes from the swampy underbelly of the Delta blues bible, and Adrian Sherwood's smoky, dubbed-out effects, loops, and echo chambers are everywhere, with sounds that come from out of time yet seem to belong right where they are.” Thom Jurek, All Music

First time vinyl edition of the 2011 album by Little Axe, the blues-infused alter ego of guitarist Skip McDonald, member of The Sugarhill Gang, Tackhead, and more, and musical arranger on a large swathe of the On-U Sound back catalogue.

“An album that is beautiful, gently funky, and deeply, deeply sad -- against all odds, McDonald has taken musical elements that have little in common with the blues and used them to draw out the blues' deepest essence. There is not a single weak track on this album. It's an unusually moving and haunting document from one of the unsung heroes of American (and, oddly enough, Jamaican) roots music.” Rick Anderson, All Music

"The Sheer Action of Fini Tribe" is a colossal retrospective anthology curated /designed by the band. Compiled from the years 1982 to 1987, it includes a wealth of archival photographs, an essay by original member Andy McGregor, who also designed the sleeve, and essays by longtime friend Shirley Manson (Garbage, Goodbye Mr. MacKenzie) and author Alastair McKay, an early champion of the band. The release features the first legendary John Peel Session, produced by Dale Griffin and originally broadcast in May 1985.

"This compilation was a long time in the making, a labour of love for the band, showcasing our most productive years as a six-piece. The compilation of tracks - from professional BBC recordings to live performance and rehearsal room demos - it gives as broad a spectrum of the breadth of the band’s creativity during those five important years from 1982 to 1987" says founding member Chris Connelly.

Born into the cash-poor but culturally-wealthy environs of post-punk Edinburgh in 1980, as a three-piece with no drummer, they soon swelled into a muscular six-piece with inherited or cheaply-purchased instruments. Drawing on influences from Throbbing Gristle, Wire, Can, Captain Beefheart, to numerous angular funk bands, they also drew from the seemingly bottomless well of modern film, writing, and art that was abundant in the festival city.

These works include the legendary John Peel session from 1985, the original 12" singles (including "Detestimony") and the WaxTrax! singles, as well as unreleased live tracks. All tracks have been lovingly remastered and produced by the band’s members.

Field Music release an expanded 2-disc edition of their self-titled debut, in celebration of the album’s 20th anniversary. The second disc of this new set includes the first ever vinyl release for the 2006 b-sides collection, Write Your Own History, as well as 3 more rare/unreleased recordings from the band’s formative years, brand new liner notes from former NME writer James Snodgrass, and archive material from the North East music milieu which gave birth to Field Music, The Futureheads, Maximo Park and more.

Field Music’s debut album arrived when post-punk-influenced guitar music was enjoying a popular renaissance. But where other bands combined skinny jeans and football chants, Peter and David Brewis, along with keyboard-player Andrew Moore, constructed a soundworld which was sonically terse, but brimming with musical detail and sophistication, borrowing from the baroque-pop excursions of Van Dyke Parks, The Left Banke and Todd Rundgren, as much as from Wire and Television. Setting a template which has sustained the band ever since, the album was self-produced at the band’s own studio space in Sunderland, with the brothers’ lofty ambitions far outstripping their limited experience. “As naive as it might sound, we really wanted to make music which didn’t rely on clichés,” says David, “And, while I don’t think we quite succeeded, I do think that first record stands as something quite unique.”

This reissue also marks 20 years of the band’s association with the pioneering and beloved Memphis Industries label. “Back in the summer of 2004, we sent a CD-R of the unmixed album to them with a half-pleading, half-defiant letter, saying we’d release it ourselves if no one else was interested,” remembers David, “and it must have landed on their desk at an opportune moment because 20 years and 21 albums later, they’re still putting up with us.”

Undoubtedly one of the most important and influential electronic artists to have emerged in popular music, the sonic misfit from Cornwall, the Aphex Twin, released a breathtaking slew of early singles and albums from 1991 onwards (and continues to present day). The first clutch of groundbreaking works came on the legendary Belgium label R&S Records and were collected on a compilation album ‘Classics’, released in 1995, and followed the global success of the timeless album ‘Selected Ambient Works 85-92’.

‘Classics’ receives a long overdue vinyl & CD re-press for 2025, with a fresh vinyl cut by acclaimed mastering engineer Beau Thomas, and a R&S Records sticker sheet inserted into the LP sleeves including cover artwork of the two singles ‘Digeridoo’ and ‘Xylem Tube’ EP which are both featured on this compilation album.

‘Digeridoo’ was released on the R&S Records label in 1992 and originally peaked at #55 in the UK singles chart in May of that year. Over the last 33 years the track has become one of the essential Aphex Twin tracks in a gargantuan catalogue that continues to amaze and inspire. Released as a 4 track EP that also included early Aphex productions (now classics) including the industrial, acidic clang of ‘Flap Head’ and hyperbolic futurism of ‘Isopropanol’, the release cemented a relationship with the R&S label that went on to release the ‘Xylem Tube’ EP and the pivotal album ‘Selected Ambient Works 85-92’ in the same year.

The ’Classics’ album features both the ‘Digeridoo’ and ‘Xylem Tube’ EP singles, plus ‘Analogue Bubblebath 1’, ‘Metapharstic’ (originally released on the album Mayday - A New Chapter Of House And Techno '92), two Aphex remixes of Mescalinum United’s ‘We Have Arrived’ from 1992 and ‘Digeridoo (Live In Cornwall, 1990)’.

Seefeel are a pioneering, experimental electronic band. Formed in London in the early 1990s, they emerged as one of the most innovative bands bridging shoegaze and electronic music, known for their textured soundscapes, minimalist rhythms and ambient sensibilities.

This new, expanded version of 'Pure, Impure' brings together Seefeel’s three classic EPs; 'More Like Space', 'Plainsong', and 'Time to Find Me', and includes Aphex Twin mixes and a previously unreleased demo of 'Moodswing'. Remastered by Geoff Pesche at Abbey Road Studios, this 11-track collection also features newly reimagined artwork.

Their 1993 EP 'Pure, Impure', released on Too Pure, marked a pivotal moment in their evolution, offering a more stripped-down, hypnotic approach than their debut Quique. The EP’s tracks explore loop-based structures, subtle melodic shifts and the fusion of organic guitar tones with machine-like precision. 'Pure, Impure' reflects the band's growing interest in dub, ambient techno, and post-rock aesthetics. The EP served as a blueprint for their future work, signaling a deeper dive into electronic experimentation. With its understated beauty and genre-defying sound, the EP remains a key release in Seefeel’s catalogue.

Universally acclaimed by critics, with particular praise for the quality of its musicianship as well as nominations for the Mercury Music Prize and Brits, The Coral’s self-titled debut album, released in July 2002, made quite a splash.

Co-produced by the band (using the name Zion Egg) and fellow-Merseyside native Ian Broudie, it clearly distilled its sounds from an impressively diverse range of influences and was most often tagged as both ‘neo-psychedelia’ and ‘folk rock’. “A mass of remarkable contradictions”… filled with “such inexplicable pleasures,” wrote Alexis Petridis in The Guardian. “Original, challenging and above all, fun,” suggested BBC Manchester Music. The Coral peaked at number five in the UK album chart and alongside its third single, ‘Dreaming of You’, was certified platinum by the BPI. Mirroring the original vinyl version, this pressing includes the track ‘Simian Technology’ at the end of side B.

Like its predecessor, Magic and Medicine (originally issued in the summer of 2003) was co-produced by the Lightning Seeds’ Ian Broudie and invited comparisons with the some of the best British rock and pop recordings of the 1960s, perhaps most notably those by The Animals, with lead singer James Skelly’s vocals frequently compared to those of the great Eric Burdon. The album topped the chart in the UK, spawning four top 30 hit singles - ‘Don't Think You're the First’, ‘Pass It On’, ‘Secret Kiss’ and ‘Bill McCai’ - and is currently just shy of platinum certification. Once again, reviewers were effusive in their praise for the variety of sounds and songwriting on show, while acknowledging that, though it might have been slightly less dazzling than its predecessor, it was more consistent as the band reined in their influences and “and just stick with the program of creating rocking tunes” (Allmusic.com).

Grizzly Bear never broke up. In the six years that have passed since their most recent shows, the four members who first drifted into the group two decades ago as loose friends and even total strangers—Chris Bear, Ed Droste, Daniel Rossen, Chris Taylor—have drifted out into other things. They’ve made other music, pursued other careers, cultivated other families, lived other lives beyond the bounds of being this band. And now, for the first time since 2019, these four musicians and friends will drift back into Grizzly Bear, to test the ties that made them one of this century’s most engrossing and beloved acts and see where else those old connections may yet lead.

That sort of open-ended approach, after all, is what still makes Grizzly Bear one of this young century’s defining acts. Twenty years ago, they quickly morphed from a lo-fi songwriter project to a full band with an instantly singular sound, uncanny harmonies slipping around arrangements that paired the glow of a chamber orchestra to the grit of a rock group. They helped to redefine what was possible within indie rock by balancing lushness with looseness, a technical excellence with an emotional openness. Their musical traces remain ubiquitous, bits of their unorthodox perspective on sound and texture now part of the firmament. Hearing these songs live in 2025 will feel less like shaking hands with the past, then, than seeing their fingerprints in the present, as if for the first time.

‘Split The Difference’ is the fourth studio album by English indie rock band Gomez, released on 17th May 2004.

Production on the album was overseen by the band and Tchad Blake, known for producing albums by artists such as Tom Waits and Crowded House.

The album was met with mixed critical response, with AllMusic rating it as four stars out of five and BBC Internet Music Reviews describing it as “one of the finest releases of the year so far. If you were one of those people who wrote them off two years ago, it’s time to get listening again.”

A must-have for both longtime fans and new listeners, Kattguld offers a deep dive into one of Sweden’s most captivating modern psych acts.

This deluxe Medicine Show reissue arrives as an expansive 4xCD box set, collecting 42 Dream Syndicate tracks that span rare live recordings, radio sessions, rehearsals, demos, and previously unreleased material from 1983 to 1984. Alongside it, the original album returns as a standalone LP, all via Down There Records (distributed by Fire Records).

In 1982, The Dream Syndicate started their own record company, Down There Records, to release their self-titled four-song twelve-inch EP, which included the first versions of ‘When You Smile’ and ‘That’s What You Always Say’. They went on to sign with Slash for The Days of Wine and Roses, followed by A&M for the Medicine Show album. After years, the band has earned the right to reissue Medicine Show as a 42-song, 4xCD set featuring 29 unreleased recordings from the 1983 to 1984 era. For this special occasion, The Dream Syndicate are resurrecting their Down There label, which will be distributed by Fire Records.

Medicine Show has always been a controversial album, even before it was recorded. The indie rock darlings became the first Paisley Underground band to sign to a major label, hire a mainstream rock producer, change bass players, and spend months recording the album - after having banged out their previous one, The Days of Wine and Roses, in mere hours.

What this new box set reveals is that, as a live band, they were on fire. For the first time ever, the complete WXRT radio broadcast from the original reel-to-reel master tape is included. This is accompanied by rehearsal and live tapes of Kendra, recorded just before her departure.

It’s all part of the story: early, primitive versions of original songs, plenty of cover versions that the band mangled into something new, and a journey of finding themselves along the way. Thankfully, shows from venues like CBGB’s, Zaders, and Soap Creek reveal some incendiary magic. Beyond the live audio, the album itself has now been remastered from the original analog tapes.

Like many psychologically complex albums, Medicine Show took time to truly settle into listeners’ minds. It’s long overdue, but it has finally arrived.

TOTAL 25… Another anniversary in a year that is already rich in anniversaries. For the 25th time, the Kompakt family is gathering for its annual rendezvous. Prick up your ears, here we go!

The latest boy band in town, POP VAMPIRES COLOGNE, opens the party with the enigmatic ‘Karianne’. SUPERPITCHER knows how to make a grand appearance, accompanied by high-calibre guests. His electro-pop treat ‘Pandora’s Box’ features Hot Chip’s ALEXIS TAYLOR on vocals. JÜRGEN PAAPE isn’t coming alone either, but with newcomer HELLA in tow. ‘Grace (A Tale)‘ once again shows our resident hit maker at his best. JÖRG BURGER also has a table companion, the extremely talented Irene Kalisvaart, and remixes himself on top of that. REINHARD VOIGT points out that money never sleeps and proceeds according to the motto: ’Zahl an einem anderen Tag (Pay another day)’. Our Brazilian whirlwind GUI BORATTO returns after a long absence with the banger ‘Panorama X-Press’. After careful consideration, ROBAG WRUHME has named his new track ‘Total’ and sings in the chorus with his family for the first time. WASSERMANN contributes an ultra-fat remix of Mayer’s ‘Brainwave Technology’, while MICHAEL MAYER himself marvels at the rare ‘Erdbeermond’. HARDT ANTOINE’s ‘Let Me Go’ really gets the party going again before WASSERMANN orders a large taxi and skips out on the bill.

Aphex Twin’s ‘Xylem Tube’ EP arrived in the summer of 1992 on R&S Records, coming hot off the heels of his landmark ‘Digeridoo’ release, and an audacious follow up from the then 21-year-old Richard D. James. Out of print for nearly two decades, this long-awaited vinyl reissue restores one of the pivotal early works in his catalogue. Where ‘Digeridoo’ pushed the endurance of the rave floor to its limits, the ‘Xylem Tube’ EP stretched the Aphex Twin sound into new dimensions with ‘Polynomial-C’ becoming an enduring classic with its spiralling arpeggios, shattering breakbeats and alien melodics. Tracks like ‘Phlange Phace’ and ‘Tamphex (Hedphuq Mix)’ pushed distortion, humour and rhythm into uncharted territory, while ‘Dodeccaheedron’ acts as a bold signifier of James’ radical ideas of how dance music can sound, with its ominous and brooding synth work over a cacophony of eerie, broken beats.

Three decades later, the EP stands not only as a key chapter in the Aphex canon, but also as a statement of intent from an artist set on reshaping electronic music’s DNA. Now faithfully reissued on vinyl for the first time since a 2006 pressing, this edition returns one of the most in-demand Aphex R&S titles to circulation after nearly twenty years out of print.

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Uncompromising machine abuse that was so far ahead of its time it still sounds like the future, today! Inside the mind of a then young Richard D James, showing us just what we were instore for, for the next 30 years - innovative, envelope pushing, no fucks given, sonic art.

Green Day’s classic ‘Dookie’ is now available on limited edition Raspberry Vinyl. 

Green Day’s third studio album Dookie was released in February 1994, and has since sold over 15 million copies worldwide, including 10 million in the US (RIAA Diamond certified). The album is an iconic punk-rock-pop masterpiece and one of the most influential and defining albums of the 1990’s. It spawned five hit singles that are still hugely popular songs: “Longview”, “Basket Case”, “Welcome to Paradise”, “When I Come Around”, and “She”.

STAFF COMMENTS

Barry says: I was (am) a massive fan of the ol' skate / pop punk and this was the absolute cream of the crop for me. Legendary melodies and crisp, beautifully produced recordings of snotty youngsters talking about drugs and sex.

Finally, the pioneering first album from the group that epitomized the spontaneous, simultaneous and glorious emergence of the hip-hop and electro-funk genres is back on vinyl. The song "Where's The Beat" has been extracted due to it's not actually being made by the group, but every other note and beat is included as it was originally released, from the opening narration and the sound effects joining the songs to the classic hip-hop and electro-funk in-between.

Also included for the first time anywhere is the previously unreleased track “Disco Kryptonite”. For 40 years following the release of “Jam On It”, one of the most common requests Cozmo had received was to actually do a song called “Disco Kryptonite”. For the rerelease of Jam On Revenge on vinyl, Cozmo figured it was time. Everybody knew that in the Superman battle in the song “Jam On It”, Jam-On used a song called “Disco Kryptonite” to win the battle. So, this new song had to be worthy of the name.

The battle would have taken place in the late ‘70s in Brooklyn, so Coz figured that the track should have the feel of that era and place. According to Cozmo, “back then, we would often battle with uptempo Funk records that broke down into breaks”. In those days, the term “Disco” was much more generic, and was used across dance genres. So, Coz decided that “Disco Kryptonite” should be an uptempo funk break record. However, he still wanted it to have that authentic Newcleus sound. So, he decided to create it as if he had done a ‘70s funk record as Newcleus in ’84. So, only using the same synths and drum machines that were available in his studio in 1984 and 1985, “Disco Kryptonite” was born. As always, Cozmo draws very heavily on Roland synths such as the Juno, Jupiter and JX series, as well as the Roland TR-707 and TR-727 drum machines. So, finally, the classic Newcleus album Jam On Revenge is back on vinyl. And, the question “What does “Disco Kryptonite” sound like?” is finally answered. And it is only available on vinyl.

Whether you are a big fan of Newcleus, or a serious connoisseur of Old School Hip-Hop or Electro, or just a lover of good music, your collection is incomplete without this incredible reissue of Newcleus' classic Jam On Revenge on vinyl!

Soul Jazz Records’ new ‘SOUL JAMAICA’ brings together a wicked selection of reggae funk and soul tracks from the legendary Studio One stable, featuring a stellar line-up of artists including Jackie Mittoo, The Heptones, The Gladiators, Sim Smith, Peter Tosh and The Wailers, Cedric ‘Im’ Brooks and many more.

For a short period of time at the end of the 1960s and early 1970s, nestled between the end of rocksteady and the arrival of roots reggae, Studio One released a small stream of superb soul and funk reggae tunes - covering everyone from Sly and The Family Stone, Diana Ross and The Supremes, Nina Simone, Gene Chandler, Tyrone Davis and more.

Most of the tracks featured on ‘SOUL JAMAICA’ were only ever released on Studio One’s UK subsidiary label Bamboo in small-run pressings and are now consequently extremely hard to find.

The cover photograph features images of Air Jamaica, the new airline created by the Jamaican government at the end of the 1960s, showing how, in the years following independence, the country assumed its place on the world stage, with reggae music playing a key role in creating the island’s new cultural identity.

Revolution Dub is a studio album by Jamaica's legendary dub producer Lee Perry and his studio band the Upsetters, and was originally released in 1975. Critics have described Revolution Dub as one of Perry's most important and exemplary albums, although some consider it one of his more overlooked productions. The use of sampled television dialogue has been highlighted by several writers as innovative for predating the sampler and for its unusual context, while the album was later influential on artists including Stevie Wonder and Holger Czukay.

In Spanish, La Luz means “light” and that’s the perfect thing to evoke when your songs give the illusion of veering in the opposite direction. But lift out most any lyric—which is a good excuse to give a closer listen to the delicate, four-part harmonies that are fast becoming the band’s signature—and you’ll find that the aches and pains of love and loss, of living in a world where no foothold is ever a promise—all this is delivered with a nuanced dose of perfectly timed exhilaration, like the whole thing might just be worth it in the end.

The break up concept album no one asked for, The Appleseed Cast arrived on Tiger Style in 2003 amidst a second wave emo backlash.

Decades later, 'Two Conversations' is widely considered the Lawrence, Kansas, quintet’s crowning achievement, an atmospheric soul baring that eschews the Midwest varietal’s tropes. Get lost in the dreamy keys and synths and steel string strums, just be home before curfew.

180G reissue of Calexico’s acclaimed 1998 album.

The perfect soundtrack for a summer roadtrip in an old car across Death Valley.

“Calexico's musical textures are woven out of a dazzling array of instruments and styles, including mariachi trumpets, countrified pedal steel, Latin jazz percussion, and carnival organ, just to name a few. The songs move at siesta speed, casually looping and loping along, never getting overheated. Bandmates Joey Burns and John Convertino have their hands in so many musical pies--including projects with OP8, Giant Sand, Victoria Williams, Giant Sand, and Richard Buckner--one wonders how they find the time to create the sun-soaked music of Calexico. But thank God they have.” --Tod Nelson

In the wake of the Louisville–via–Chicago late-millennium post-rock explosion, Mercury Program arrived at an amorphous “scene” in transition, vibraphone in hand. From 'The Vapors of Gasoline'—their 2000 album for Tiger Style—was hardly a sophomore slump. Its ten cerebral and dissonant jams coyly answer the never-asked query: What if new age and post-hardcore bought a house in the suburbs?

This 25th anniversary remaster reveals the genius of an overlooked triumph in startlingly vibrant detail, providing atmospheric color for erstwhile reptile and periodic table fans alike.

Names Records in conjunction with Two Piers Editions are delighted to announce the long awaited 21st Anniversary reissue of the debut album from The Earlies. 'These Were the Earlies' was released on Names Records / 679 Recordings in July of 2004 and quickly became one of that summer’s essential albums.

Here's what we said about it on it's original release, and it still stands up today as an absolute Piccadilly Records all time favourite:

This is Music! No room for their romantic, cross-continental story (oh, ok: Texan / Manc. 4-piece combine on either side of the Atlantic and release a handful of 7" and 10" EP's which stun and awe those of us with record players) because this isn't 'lifestyle' or 'personality' fixated rock, this is pure music-loving artistry. If you like Mercury Rev or Spiritualized for scope, ambition and magic, then prepare yourselves to be blown away. The Earlies' sound is more a blend of folk and electronica than those two, but it shares a similar woozy, other-worldly, baroque, chamber-pop landscape. It's an enchanted place. They also pull in proggy, Krautrock directions (see Neu! for grooves and Stereolab for a love of melody) with long instrumental passages, cinematic and roving, stretching between the gorgeous lullabies which make up most of the songs on this album. All the singles are here, and they most certainly are Pop, but how many bands do you know that are capable of furnishing their songs with mellotron, melodica, flutes, oboes, sax, cellos, accordians, Hammond and mini-choirs? And no other band this year could even come close to the melancholic majesty of "One of Us Is Dead" or the insistent, pulsating groove and splendour of "Morning Wonder". The whole record really flows together; this is a proper album to be listened to all the way through, and with beautiful packaging and evocative lyrics (included) embellishing the lush widescreen soundscapes, you'll be going on a journey. You'll absolutely love it!

STAFF COMMENTS

Laura says: This is still one of my favourite records. It was my album of the year in 2004 and only narrowly missed out on the coveted top spot in the shop, with the mighty Sufjan Stevens' "Seven Swans' just edging it.
It's a glorious mix of folk, pop, gospel and electronica, that still sounds fresh and relevant today.

This deluxe 30th Anniversary edition features newly unplugged versions of five classic tracks ‘Cast No Shadow’, ‘Morning Glory’, ‘Wonderwall’, ‘Acquiesce’ and ‘Champagne Supernova’, all newly mixed by Noel Gallagher.

STAFF COMMENTS

Barry says: There are very few albums that can have at the very least three of the Piccadilly staff members agreeing on blasting of a Friday afternoon, but this is one of them. From the radio-bothering ubiquity of Wonderwall to the epic rolling rock of Don't Look Back In Anger, there is a consistent stream of impeccably raucous rock and relentlessly widescreen roll.

An iconic selection of tracks from one of the greatest rock bands in history, now featuring a lovely selection of finely crafted acoustic reworks. The ultimate collection, and one that you should definitely own one way or another.

Supergrass announce the 20th anniversary edition of ‘Road to Rouen,’ their fifth studio album, originally released on 15th August 2005.

The title references both the French city where it was recorded and the Ramones' 1978 album ‘Road to Ruin.’

This album marked a more reflective phase for the band, featuring longer, more orchestral compositions. It garnered critical acclaim, receiving 4 and 5-star reviews from publications like The Guardian, Mojo, and Uncut. The album includes the singles ‘Low C,’ ‘Fin’ and fan favourite ‘St Petersburg’, a captivating and beautiful track with a hint of John Lennon's influence. Arguably their most personal album, it represented a departure from Supergrass's signature upbeat sound. This new, mellow, and introspective direction made the entire album a critical success.

In celebration of its 20th anniversary, this reissue features previously unheard live and studio recordings. The album has been fully remastered for 2025 and is accompanied by a 16-page booklet with liner notes written by Mark Radcliffe.

The second Albini recorded and engineered Low album, 'Things We Lost in the Fire' features such hits as 'Sunflower' and 'Laser Beam'.

“Measuring out grief and resilience with a steady hand, these are the best songs of Low's quiet career." - Mojo [9/10].

“Low's original stark minimalism has gradually given way to a broader sonic range, without sacrificing their strangely accessible otherness." - Wire.

“Low have always sought to make music that can both swell the heart like a gospel tune and capture the amplified absence of a funeral parlour. It's difficult to imagine a more perfect expression of their vision than this." - NME.

How does an artist follow a critically-acclaimed breakthrough record like 'Southeastern'? For Jason Isbell, the answer was 'Something More Than Free'. With songs like '24 Frames', 'Flagship', and 'Children of Children', the 2015 album found Isbell tackling the subjects he knows best: the dignity of work, the difficulty of love, the friction between the present and the past. 'Something More Than Free' further established the North Alabama native as a bonafide songwriter, and also netted him his first two Grammy Awards, for Americana Album of the Year, and for American Roots Song of the Year ('24 Frames'.)

10 years later, 'Something More Than Free' has been re-mixed by the legendary Sylvia Massy (Prince, Johnny Cash, Tom Petty), breathing new life into these now classic songs in the Isbell canon. And as a cherry on top, the man has broken his normal rule and included a b-side here. 'Should I Go Missing' is a bluesy jammer highlighted by Isbell's slide guitar playing.

Their previous album, 'Giant Steps' (1993), had won Wallasey’s Boo Radleys copious critical acclaim to add to their cult fanbase. With the album that followed, the gold-selling 'Wake Up!' (1995) they reached their commercial peak, topping the UK album chart.

Its lead single ‘Wake Up Boo!’ was their biggest by far and appeared to capture the mood of the times, although looking back 30 years on its writer Martin Carr declared: “I tried to have nothing to do with what was being called Britpop. Our whole career was spent trying not to 'fit in’”. Still, their mastery of pure pop (with obvious ‘60s influences), taking in psychedelia, close harmonies, big choruses, acoustic material and more was fully displayed. As Allmusic.com put it: “The Boo Radleys were always a band with ambitions. The only difference with 'Wake Up!' is that they finally fulfilled them”.

The collaboration between BBE Music and If Music continues with another excellent compilation in the ongoing If Music Presents series with this 2nd volume in the World Jazz Grooves chapter. Alongside the A Journey Into Deep Jazz albums in the catalogue, World Jazz Grooves Volume 2 explores the global diversity of Jazz in its many forms, as interpreted throughout the globe, with tracks from Denmark, France, Brazil, Canada, the USA and Jamaica. The tracklist includes Rosa Mae from Mary Lou Williams, one of the artists in the legendary A Great Day in Harlem photograph and Dakar, a 16 minute opus of a track by Dadje. With the music sought, sorted and selected by legendary diggers and selectors Jean-Claude and Victor Kiswell World Jazz Volume 2 is also the opportunity to own music that has been painstakingly searched for in flea markets, second hand shops and private collections and would not be available otherwise. Jean-Claude’s excellent track record of creating and curating compilation albums and rediscovering rare gems and private presses for re-issue follows a philosophy of cross- genre music appreciation. He has been a mainstay of London’s Black Music scene for some four decades with his record shop, his shows on NTS and Soho Radio, his excellent ‘In Conversation with...’ series of chat shows, his Djing and curation of event stages at We Out Here and Cross the Tracks and, of course, his excellent compilations. Paris based Victor Kiswell is also a somewhat of a savant in the world of vinyl hunting and discernment with parallel careers as a journalist writing for vinyl bazaar, art director for Radioooo.com, DJ and broadcaster on various stations throughout Europe. Victor's travels around the world, on his vinyl quests, are well documented in his articles in Vinyl Bazaar and he describes himself as an 'adventurer', an 'archaeologist' and someone who enjoys the element of his vinyl hunting where he finds himself going where chance takes him. Yes, with these two music heads and vinyl hunting experts unearthing the seven absolute gems on this double vinyl offering, If Music presents: World Jazz Grooves Volume 2 really is something you need in your life and in your vinyl rack.

First time ever official vinyl reissue, gatefold 140g vinyl, remastered from the original Vertigo master tapes.

The Keith Tippett Group's Dedicated to You, But You Weren't Listening is a landmark in cutting edge fusion/avant-jazz. A vital and profoundly adventurous Jazz-Rock record that still swings very hard, it was first released on Vertigo in 1971.

Original copies are now very tricky to score and, as most of you really should know, it’s aged ridiculously well.

A legendary work, this Be With re-issue has been newly remastered from the original Vertigo master tapes, demonstrating just why this deserves to be back in press. The stunning gatefold jacket fully restores Roger and Martyn Dean's original, arresting album artwork to complete this must-have reissue.

Alive and bursting with a joyful energy that has to be heard to be believed, Dedicated to You, But You Weren't Listening flirts with perfection. It's truly magical and forever essential.

A brilliant jazz pianist, composer, arranger and bandleader "who could make the outlands of modern music feel like the most hospitable of places" (The Guardian), Keith Tippett's second album is oft-regarded as his Canterbury album.

Indeed, not only does he draw heavily on Soft Machine members past, present and future but the album title itself archly references a Soft Machine composition. Ray Babbington handles bass alongside Neville Whitehead and the drums are shared between Brian Spring (Nucleus), Robert Wyatt(!) and Phil Howard (who would go on to replace Wyatt in Soft Machine). Gary Boyle (Isotope) is on guitar whilst the great percussionist Tony Uter is enlisted for his conga and cow bell expertise. Elton Dean on Alto Saxello, cornetist Marc Charig and Nick Evans on trombone round out this quite stunning ensemble.

Dedicated to You, But You Weren't Listening presents a collective of superhuman musicians really, *really* enjoying themselves in the studio. The sheer exuberance of the performance is totally infectious. It's wild, energetic, atmospheric and, bluntly, bordering on chaotic at points. In a word, it's beautiful.

Robert Wyatt's drumming opens the record with a bang on the majestic Be With favourite "This Is What Happens". Some have described his work here as "easily the most inspired of his career on record." It's an ultra-funky conga-driven groove that truly sparks via the duelling interplay between the three horn players. In the background, Keith's insistent piano, in conversation with those unignorable drums, is the anchor that keeps this piece rollicking away. Breathtaking.

The epic, energetic "Thoughts to Geoff" is a 10-minute jammer that tends towards the dissonant and improvisational but becomes more fluid, laconic and melodic as it unravels. The interplay between soloists and ensembles is particularly dazzling here - blazing solos by Evans, Charig and Tippett himself in a flourish of angular arpeggios interspersed with chordal elocution. Phew.

Up next, the no less-urgent Mingus-referencing "Green and Orange Night Park" is a soaring example of ambitious jazz mixed with rock aggression, with Dean strutting his stuff by launching into a scorching solo. An absolutely jaw-dropping piece. Arguably the highlight of this album of huge highlights!

Though much of the album tends to fall on the raucous side ("Gridal Suite" approaches free-jazz at its most chaotic and, dare we say it, "difficult"), there are a few more sedate, at times spacey numbers, such as the deeply impressionistic "Five After Dawn". The rhythmically complex "Black Horse" is the most accessible track here, a sort of swinging Big Band number with tight grooves, soaring horn & reed melodies, a sizzling Boyle guitar solo and tasty electric piano riffs from Tippett. An hypnotic climax to a staggering record.

This Be With edition of Dedicated to You, But You Weren't Listening has been remastered from the original Vertigo master tapes, Simon Francis’ mastering working together with Cicely Balston's cut at Abbey Road Studios to weave their usual magic with these wonderful recordings. The stunning gatefold sleeve has been restored in all its brainchild glory so you know you're dealing with the definitive reissue, here. Now, are you listening?

Released in 2014 and charting at number six in the UK (and number four on the Billboard 200 in the US), Adams’ self-titled album, produced by the artist and his recording partner Mike Viola, earned two nominations at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards in ‘Best Rock Song’, for lead single ‘Gimme Something Good’ and ‘Best Rock Album’.

After the largely acoustic 'Ashes & Fire', it marked a return to a rocking, electric approach inspired by the music he listened to while growing up: "The music that really, really mattered to me… nothing’s ever going to be more important to me than The Wipers, Hüsker Dü, The Replacements.”

On his decision to release a self-titled album, Adams stated: "I could not think of a name for this record. Everything I came up with sounded so stupid. Everything sounded like a King Crimson album title,….I was like, I can’t call this ‘Shadows’ or something, I just can’t do it.“

Originally released in 1993, Surfing On Sine Waves is the second album released under the Warp Artificial Intelligence series (the series also includes the two titular compilations, as well as contributions by Autechre, The Black Dog, F.U.S.E. and more).

Surfing On Sine Waves is also the sole album released under Richard D. James’ (aka Aphex Twin's) Polygon Window alias. The name “Polygon Window” originally appeared as a track name under Richard D. James’ other pseudonym The Dice Man, as the track title for his submission on Artificial Intelligence.

Surfing On Sine Waves was chosen as a title by Rob Mitchell based on a quote by Richard D. James. The album debuted at #2 on the UK dance charts.

The album was followed the same year with a companion EP titled Quoth. The EP’s title track originally appeared on the album, accompanied by additional songs who first appeared on this release.

Fast forward 32 years to 2025, Surfing On Sine Waves (Expanded Edition) sees the pair of companion releases as a single entity, out on vinyl and CD.

Few debut albums arrive with the kind of self-contained logic and radical spirit found on the self titled ‘Faust’. Released in 1971, it marked the beginning of a project that would sidestep genre and expectation, offering a fractured, exploratory take on rock music, blending tape experiments, improvised structures, and surreal collage. This Bureau B reissue offers a fresh opportunity to engage with one of the most curious and uncompromising records of its time.

The story of Faust begins in 1969, when cultural journalist Uwe Nettelbeck met with Horst Schmolzi, an A&R man at Polydor in Hamburg. Schmolzi was looking for a German answer to The Beatles, but Nettelbeck had other ideas. With a generous advance in hand, he set out to assemble something far more radical. Nettlebeck headed into the Hamburg underground and fused members of the bands Nukleus and Campylognatus Citelli into a new six-piece lineup. From Nukleus came bassist Jean-Hervé Péron, guitarist Rudolf Sosna, and saxophonist Gunther Wüsthoff. From Campylognatus Citelli, he brought in keyboardist Hans-Joachim Irmler and drummers Werner “Zappi” Diermaier and Arnulf Meifert.

Installed in a converted schoolhouse in the rural village of Wümme, Lower Saxony, the band lived and worked communally, while Nettelbeck oversaw the project as producer, alongside engineer Kurt Graupner. Much of the Polydor money went not into marketing, but into building a custom studio on-site, allowing the band complete creative autonomy. Extensive cabling allowed instruments to be played without needing to leave the bedroom, clothing was optional and intoxicants were abundant. The actual recording process didn’t begin until three days before the deadline, and what followed was a spontaneous burst of experimental creativity, equal parts anarchic and inspired. Remarkably, the resulting album doesn’t sound rushed. On the contrary, ‘Faust’ feels deliberate in its unpredictability: a meticulously chaotic document of six musicians discovering a new musical language in real time.

The trip begins with “Why Don’t You Eat Carrots,” a collage of absurdist theatre and sound sculpture. Its snarling guitar feedback, shuddering electronics and tape-scratched pop samples mutate into a post-structuralist meltdown. Stones’ “Satisfaction” and Beatles’ “All You Need Is Love” are reduced to spectral phrases, mocking the very idea of cultural consensus. From there horns squeal, pianos splinter and voices swirl in delay, as if the entirety of a circus is being squeezed through the hoop of a bubble blower, leaving us to watch the whole spectacle bend, shake and shimmer in the sunlight. Next, “Meadow Meal” opens with resonant industrial tones, like air forced through plumbing, and gradually blossoms into a surrealist jazz-folk ritual. Fingerpicked guitar cohabits with blasts of reverb-heavy organ and beat-poet vocal incantations. At its heart lies a groove so deep and syncopated it borders on funk, only to collapse into chaos once more. And then there is “Miss Fortune”, a 16-minute live improvisation soaked in hashish and reverb. One-note bass lines throb like minimalist mantras beneath swirling organs and mutant sax. Drums stutter toward cohesion and then back away in terror. Guitars unravel into smoke. And in the final moments, the music recedes, leaving behind a broken narrative, fragmented speech, laughter, coughs, like a bedtime story told by ghosts of a Europe still recovering from war.

Despite the experimental nature, surrealist lyrics and a complete rejection of conventional music form, this isn’t an over intellectual exercise, or a display of wilful antagonism. Instead, Faust packed these three sprawling, sputtering pieces with the breadth of human emotion, capturing the chaos and complexity of existence in an audio analogue to Jackson Pollock’s abstract expressionism. More than 50 years on, it remains a thrilling reminder of what can happen when artists abandon the map and follow instinct instead.

XTC’s groundbreaking 1979 album 'Drums and Wires' gets a stunning 2025 reissue with a fresh Dolby Atmos mix by Steven Wilson, revealing new sonic detail and depth.

One of the gems of the post-punk era, replete with the sort of musical diversity that would have been unimaginable two years earlier, Swindon’s finest, XTC, produced an early classic album with their third release, the Steve Lillywhite produced Drums and Wires. Andy Partridge recalls it as an optimistic time for the band. Dave Gregory’s arrival on guitar (replacing organist Barry Andrews who left following the release of Go2) marked a shift in style with the group now configured as a twin guitar/bass/drums line-up. Despite an endless touring schedule much time was spent honing new material.

Both Partridge & Colin Moulding were growing in confidence as songwriters – this album did much to further their reputation for peerless post-punk pop tunes. But it was also Steve Lillywhite & engineer Hugh Padgham’s ability to give appropriate studio support & recording expertise to the more expansive pieces such as “Roads Girdle The Globe” & “Complicated Game” that helped to bring a new level of maturity to the overall feel of the release. Issued at the start of September, Drums and Wires entered the UK Albums Chart where it remained for a total of seven weeks, accompanied by another first for the band, a Top 20 UK (& international) hit single in album lead track “Making Plans for Nigel”. The optimism of the recording sessions had proved justified.

Deluxe 2LP Edition of Terry Hall’s second solo album pressed on Red Vinyl exclusively for Dinked. Includes the singles ‘Ballad of a Landlord’ and ’I Saw the Light’.

Features an alternate sleeve and includes new liner notes by journalist Pete Paphides, including reflections from Damon Albarn, Ian Broudie and Stephen Duffy.

Originally released in 1997 on the Southsea Bubble Company label, Terry Hall's Laugh, followed his acclaimed debut with a blend of wit, melancholy, and melody that marked him as one of Britain’s most distinctive voices.

Much of Laugh was co-written with former Smiths guitarist Craig Gannon, with further collaborations from a stellar cast including Stephen Duffy, Sean O'Hagan (The High Llamas), and Damon Albarn of Blur—who had previously worked with Hall on his 1995 Rainbows EP. The album was produced by Hall himself, alongside Gannon and Cenzo Townshend, and has since gained cult status for its sharp songwriting and intimate, understated arrangements.

This special edition expands Laugh across two discs:
Disc One: The original studio album, newly mastered by Phil Kinrade at AIR Studios.
Disc Two: B-sides, live recordings, and acoustic versions—all appearing on vinyl for the first time.

STAFF COMMENTS

Laura says: This second solo LP from Terry Hall is an absolute gem. As with his debut, Home, it's a collection of witty, melancholic pop songs, delivered in his own inimitable style. It also includes a cover of Ted Rundgren's "I Saw The Light" (IMO better than the original!) And being a Dinked Edition it's beautifully packaged with a bonus disc of added extras too.

'Buckingham Nicks', the only studio album by Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks as a duo is reissued for the first time. Originally released in 1973 and unavailable for decades, the album has been sourced from the original analog master tapes for its long-awaited return to vinyl, as well as hi-res digital files for its CD and digital release.

Released on September 5, 1973, recorded at Sound City Studios in Los Angeles and produced by Keith Olsen, the album introduced Nicks and Buckingham’s tightly wound harmonies and sharply contrasting songwriting voices across 10 tracks—ranging from the folk-rock shimmer of 'Crystal' to the sunbaked strut of 'Don’t Let Me Down Again'.

In late 1974, Mick Fleetwood visited Sound City while scouting studios to record Fleetwood Mac’s next album. To showcase both his production work and the studio’s sound, Olsen blasted 'Frozen Love' for Fleetwood in Studio A. The song reflected the full scope of the album’s ambition and chemistry—and immediately caught the drummer’s attention.

Soon after, when Fleetwood Mac guitarist Bob Welch left the band, Fleetwood reached out to offer Buckingham the spot. Instead of agreeing, Buckingham insisted that he and Nicks were a package deal. Fleetwood agreed, and on New Year’s Eve 1974, the two officially joined Fleetwood Mac—launching one of the most celebrated chapters in the band’s history.

'The Wee Small Hours: B-Sides and Other Detritus 2011-2025' consists of rarities spanning Real Estate's last decade plus with Domino.

“This is something we’ve talked about doing for a while now: a compilation of non-album tracks with a title, subtitle, and maybe throw a span of years in there to make it official-sounding,” Martin Courtney said of the compilation. “The title comes from the lyrics to an unreleased song we recorded during the Atlas sessions at Wilco’s loft in Chicago back in 2013, which in turn references a great Frank Sinatra record. This feels to us like a worthy addition to the catalog and we hope you all love it.”

The compilation’s earliest track dates back to 2011, with a cover of The Strokes’ 'Barely Legal' for a Stereogum Tribute album, and the b-side of the 'It’s Real' / 'Blue Lebaron' 7”. Other covers include 'Paper Dolls' (The Nerves) from 2014, 'Days' (Television) from 2021, and of course 'Daniel' (Elton John) from 2024. It also includes 'In My Car', dating back to a Record Store Day fanzine flexi-disc from 2012, more b-sides including the tracks from the 'Atlas' bonus 7” from 2013, and an unreleased track entitled 'Two Part' from the 'Atlas' sessions.

10 years ago in 2015, The Golden Lion in Todmorden opened its doors under the guidance of Gig & Waka, Cloudwater brewed their first ever beers, the dance floors of Manchester got introduced to the world of Supernature Disco and from his spare room at home in Bolton Chris Massey started Sprechen.

What followed over the next decade has been a wild ride of amazing people, memorable (though fuzzy!) parties, creativity, art, expression, performance and at the centre of it all of course, the music.
Sprechen has never been one style or sound. A reflection of varied musical tastes without any limitations of style or genres, just a passion to share good music.
Over the last decade, Sprechen has been lucky enough to both work with and meet many like-minded cosmic creatives that share this mindset and that have all played a major role in the story.

Ein Null is a collection of original tracks from some of Sprechen's nearest & dearest who, for the last 10 years, have helped shaped the label via releases, remixes or performing at events.
It's wonky & weird, banging & beautiful, cosmic & consciousness-expanding and it continues to connect the invisible dots of club music and more abstract listening experiences.

From basements & beyond to sunsets & psychedelic socials...we are pleased to present this electronically charged selection of soundscapes courtesy of like-minded musical humans including; The Utopia Strong, A Certain Ratio, Lena C., Gina Breeze, Low Pulse, Psychederek, Lindstrøm, Supernature Disco, PBR Streetgang and of course Chris Massey.

Limited to a run of 300 vinyl with double-sided screen-printed sleeve.

Look Out Live! perfectly encapsulates the magic of Johnny Marr’s sold-out show at the Hammersmith Apollo, London in 2024. The night was a culmination of his 2024 Spirit Power tour and showcases his 40-year repertoire of distinctive songwriting and the guitar sound that has seen Johnny regarded as the most influential guitarist of his generation.

The energy of the night can be felt through tracks from his four-album solo career such as ‘Easy Money’, ‘Armatopia’ and ‘Somewhere’ plus classic The Smiths compositions ‘This Charming Man’, ‘How Soon Is Now?’ and ‘There Is a Light That Never Goes Out’.

The memorable night made exceptional by the appearance of special guest Neil Tennant who reunited with Johnny to perform 90s supergroup Electronic’s hit ‘Getting Away With It’ and a special one-off rendition of David Bowie’s ‘Rebel Rebel’.

*Note – The CD offers additional tracks that are not on the vinyl.

Soul Jazz Records delve into the vast vaults of Discos Fuentes, one of the oldest and largest record companies in Latin America, known as ‘the Motown of Colombia’. Discos Fuentes played a major role in spreading Afro-Latin sounds both to Colombia and around the world and this album explores that legacy.

‘LATIN FIRE! Cumbia–Salsa–Afro-Funk: Tropical Dance Music from Discos Fuentes, Colombia 1956-83’ features legendary Colombian artists such as Fruko, The Latin Brothers, Michi Sarmiento, Afrosound, Pedro Laza, Wganda Kenya and more, and showcases the wide-ranging variety of styles that Discos Fuentes made unique to their sound.

The album features music from the golden era of Fuentes; from late 1950s and 1960s Cumbia through to the emergence of heavyweight and hardcore salsa and Afro-funk in the 1970s and up to the early 1980s.

Discos Fuentes pioneered the sound of ‘Tropical’ music - Afro-Colombian dance music that originated in the north coast of Colombia bringing it to a new worldwide audience. This album shows how Colombian music was also influenced by New York barrio-style hard Latin and salsa and Caribbean styles such as soka and zouk, to create a truly unique dance music sound.

Unquestionably Portland's most well-loved punk group, the Wipers formed in the late 1970s and in 1980 released their debut LP, "Is This Real?"- twelve songs of stabbing, jittery guitar, snapped vocals, and unabashed teen angst. Full of desperation and yearning, the LP has stood as a blueprint for wretched youth for over 25 years. In the early 1990s "Is This Real?" was given mainstream attention when Nirvana covered two tracks off the record and Cobain announced it was one of the primary influences on his group. While it was reissued on compact disc and available as a part of the Wipers Boxed Set (Zeno), this is the first time "Is This Real?" has been available on vinyl in the U.S. since its initial release. Remastered from original tapes as provided by Greg Sage himself, the LP is pressed on audiophile grade vinyl and housed in a deluxe tip-on sleeve. Complete with a printed insert that replicates the original innersleeve, the Jackpot Records reissue of "Is This Real?" is a lavish tribute to one of the greatest recordings of the last 30 years. Sales Points: First time on vinyl in over 25 years / Limited Edition Vinyl Pressing / A primary influence on Nirvana, who often covered their songs / Remastered from original tapes / Full blessing/cooperation from Greg Sage / Sturdy, old-style tip on jacket and printed insert / One of the most passionate and influential punk records ever "What more can I say about them? // They started Seattle grunge rock in Portland, 1977" Kurt Cobain // "Ten Records that Changed My Life", Melody Maker 1992.

Jurassic 5’s 'Feedback' (2006) marks the group’s fourth and final studio album, delivering their signature blend of tight flows and old-school production with a few new twists. While the departure of producer Cut Chemist shifted the group’s sonic dynamic, tracks like 'Work It Out' featuring Dave Matthews and the energetic single 'Red Hot' keep the momentum strong.

The album leans into a more polished, mainstream-friendly sound while maintaining J5’s lyrical unity and vocal interplay. 'Feedback' shows the group experimenting without straying too far from the formula that made them underground favorites.

Since the 1940s, Library Music has lurked in the shadows, peripherally touching our lives through TV and film. Among the stalwarts of the industry was UK's Studio G, with cues heard on Doctor Who, and sampled by the likes of The Chemical Brothers, and Tyler, the Creator. Jazz Dispensary's Dream a Dream with Studio G: Cratedigger's Archive (1970–2009) culls some of their most sought-after cuts, with liner note commentary from Saint Etienne’s Bob Stanley, and illustrations by Ivan Minsloff.

This, their debut, inevitably finds the band heavily in the shadow of Joy Division, with moody, broody pieces bigger on vibe than actual songcraft. One exception is awesome opener "Dreams Never End". I'm being entirely serious when I say that "Ceremony", "Temptation" and "Everything's Gone Green" are three of the best songs ever witten and they shone a light in the darkness of those early New Order years.

With this record, New Order properly arrived as a band that could make a consistent, coherent album. Great, tuneful songs (three of which are deliciously poppy) no filler, and a big, full sound that perfectly blended the electronic with the organic, made this their best album so far. There was only one non-album single this time, (the rather weak "Shellshock") and in-fact two songs were actually (the shock! the horror! Sell out! Sell out!) lifted from the album as singles. But fear not, the remixed, extended versions of "The Perfect Kiss" and "Subculture" are so unbelievably good that I think New Order were forgiven!

On this record New Order took the solid songwriting of "Lowlife" and made a sort of sister album. The rocking songs were heavier and the electronic ones even more beautiful. They were mostly split into what used to be the old Side 1 and Side 2, with the career highlight "Bizarre Love Triangle" opening the latter. This, "All Day Long" and "Angel Dust" make a gorgeous run of sweeping electronic pop songs that pointed the way to the slick majesty of "Technique" which was to follow.

Crate digger and music enthusiast James Endeacott compiles ‘Unlock Your Mind With Morning Glory’ for Two-Piers Records – A glorious heady mix of the weird and wonderful eclectic music from his radio show ‘Morning Glory’

“One weekday afternoon towards the end of 2017 I sat in The Lyric pub on Great Windmill Street, Soho with my dear friend Raf. I’d just finished another of my weekly Soho Radio shows and was starting to think about the next one. Raf had been on as a guest playing some of his favourite tunes of the day. We had a few drinks, told a few stories and started to plot and scheme. It was always a dream of mine to have a daily radio show. Radio had always informed and excited me from my early teens listening to John Peel under the blanket when I should’ve been either sleeping or revising right up to the present-day musical excursions of NTS, WFMU and numerous internet based stations.

We decided to speak to Adrian and Dan who ran Soho Radio to see if they’d be up for us doing a daily morning show. To our surprise they were into the idea and within 5 minutes Adrian came up with the name Morning Glory. We all liked it. We were all excited. It was all systems go. In December 2017 Raf and myself started a daily 2 hour show. We did the show together, got guests in and the musical policy was whatever we felt like that day. After several months Raf found the mornings too much. Off he went into the distance occasionally coming back with a smile, and a bag of new music. I carried on alone and then suddenly in March 2020 the world stopped, and we went into lockdown.

We set up in my house in Catford, Southeast London and carried on. The show became 3 hours a day and I started to invite friends, record labels, record shops, bands etc.. to supply me with hour long mixes that I played every day. The show took off during this time. My musical tastes expanded as I spent all day long searching for new sounds from around the globe. People started to send me more and more music. I became obsessed with the show. The audience started to take to social media and ask for certain tracks or artists to be played. I got listeners to make me mixes to play on the show and I did several phone interviews with musicians while playing some of their favourite tunes.

I was grateful that Soho Radio left me to my own devices. They never told me what to do or what to play – they trusted me and I trusted my instincts.

The music on this compilation is not a ‘best of’ it’s just how I felt when I compiled it at the start of 2025. Apart from a couple of tracks they are all things I’ve come across since the show started in December 2017. If I did a list of tracks now I’m sure it would be completely different. Surely that’s the point. We never stick in one place. We are always moving and searching. Always trying to unlock our minds. Put it on. Take your time and let it take you somewhere” James Endeacott 2025

Surfacing just as alternative rock went mainstream, Beck’s 1994 official album debut, 'Mellow Gold', quickly confounded expectations when 'Loser' metamorphosed from a rejected demo to a ubiquitous smash. 'Loser' showcased Beck’s unconventional approach to songwriting and solidified his status and an innovative voice in alternative music. The song contains a sample from 'I Walk on Guilded Splinters' by Dr. John. 'Mellow Gold' was produced by Beck, Tom Rothrock, Rob Schnapf and Karl Stephenson. The album was mixed by Tom Rothrock and Rob Schnapf. 

STAFF COMMENTS

Barry says: For me, the first few albums of Beck's were the most impactful and I Particularly remember 'Loser' being all over the place when I was younger, the fact that it falls at the start of an otherwise brilliant album is just the icing on the cake. Classic.

Dando’s first steps towards the mainstream. The major label debut for Evan Dando’s Lemonheads from 1990, following three “ramshackle punk” (©Select magazine) albums for Taang! Pivoted on a more approachable set of sweet melodies still rife with punky spirit. A light and dark album, polished in the arrangements, nodding to the excess of American culture (Manson and Gummi Bears), hectoring Reagan’s drug laws (‘Lil’ Seed’), riffing on everyday life. Remastered single LP. “Like Hüsker Dü when they were at their most ferocious or REM when they were at their most Byrdsian hypnotic.” NME

Modeselektor – aka Gernot Bronsert and Sebastian Szary – are one of the most original acts to emerge from Berlin's techno underground. After more than three decades of astonishing work – spanning cult labels, critically acclaimed albums and EPs, and era-defining releases as part of Moderat – they remain at the top of their game, as hungry as ever for the freshest electronic music from around the world. In 2025, the same year DJ-Kicks and !K7 Records celebrate their 30th and 40th anniversaries respectively, the duo are finally set to deliver their edition for the vaunted mix series. Modeselektor's passion and drive are writ large across DJKicks.

Contributing to the long-running series has always been on their bucket list. Then, finally, this year, the stars aligned, and they set to work on their edition of the compilation. Taking the non-linear approach has always been the Modeselektor way. No two tracks on DJ-Kicks sound alike, meaning the magic often happens in the liminal spaces between tunes. The rhythmically compelling release came together over a matter of days.

STAFF COMMENTS

Barry says: Berlin megaproducers Modeselektor bring us a cosmic mix of genres, seamlessly brought together into a whole that's more than the sum of it's parts. A bold, stylistically broad audio adventure available again once more.

In 2022, Daniele “Shield” Contrini of Rebirth Records proposed Paraíso to the great man himself, a compilation honouring Alfredo’s legacy. After Alfredo’s passing in December 2024, the project was final; with artists rallying to honour his vision and memory.

Before becoming a global clubbing hotspot, Ibiza embodied freedom—a place where sunrises blurred into sunsets and music became a way of life. In the 1950s and '60s, the island drew artists, hippies, and outsiders seeking escape and creative liberty.

In 1976, Alfredo Fiorito, fleeing political repression in Argentina, arrived in Ibiza and stayed. A former music journalist, he soon began DJing at Amnesia, a farmhouse-turned-club where time bent and boundaries dissolved. With eclectic, genre-defying sets, Alfredo blended reggae, flamenco, soul, rock, and early house, crafting a hypnotic energy that captivated a generation.

British DJs like Trevor Fung, Paul Oakenfold and Danny Rampling brought this “Balearic Beat” back home. But Balearic wasn’t a style it was a mindset. As DJ Leo Mas said, it was “a state of mind,” where rhythm, spirit, and psychedelia merged.

Other clubs like KU, Es Paradis, Pacha, and Lola’s amplified the movement. Visual artists such as Yves Uro gave it a striking identity, and DJs like César de Melero, DJ Pippi, and Jon Sa Trinxa carried the sound into a new era. José Padilla’s sunset sessions at Café del Mar birthed chill-out music as breath, not just beat.

But the 1990s brought change. Laws requiring roofs on clubs altered the open-air magic. Commercialisation followed; freedom became luxury, and many pioneers left.

Still, the Balearic spirit lives—raw and untamed. It pulses in hidden parties, intimate venues like Pikes and Hostal La Torre, and sacred places like Benirrás and Las Dalias.

Featuring 16 tracks of classic and true Balearic sound; alongside House & proto-House tracks that Mr Fiorito spun, the album also includes an unreleased Alfredo track and stands as a tribute to the man, the music, and the enduring spirit of true Ibiza.

A Piece Of The Action is a long-overdue retrospective celebrating Hamburg duo Egoexpress, whose rebellious blend of punk spirit and club energy defied genre conventions. From 1995 to 2005, Mense Reents and Berndt “Jimi” Siebels forged an offbeat, emotional, and rhythm-driven path through Germany’s electronic underground, which still pulses with defiant vitality today.

Formed in 1995 and rooted in the radical spirit of Hamburg’s St. Pauli district, Egoexpress began as a friendly rebellion. Jimi and Mense, two East Frisians who’d known each other since adolescence, came to the city in 1990 as part of the broader wave surrounding the Hamburger Schule - but theirs was a brief cameo in that particular scene. While peers like Blumfeld mastered literate rock and existential dissection, Egoexpress turned instead toward the bass drum: blunt, immediate, and liberating. Their musical upbringing, punk, mod culture, Neue Deutsche Welle, and a love for the hypnotic intensity of Suicide and Bohannon, translated into a fierce commitment to DIY ethos and sonic play.

Originally tethered to indie imprint L’Age D’Or via their earlier band projects, the duo delivered the inaugural outing on Ladomat 2000, a sublabel designed for club cuts and electronic excursions. Their first release, “Bungalow”, smuggled house music into German indie culture with lopsided charm - German vocals and a disarming lack of polish. What followed was a body of work as defiant as it was danceable. Between 1995 and 2005, the pair developed their sound from minimalist, Atari-driven loops to sprawling, psychedelic club tracks that gestured at house, electro, and pop, without fully belonging to any of them.

Though an immediate sensation around Hamburg’s Golden Pudel club, their sound took longer to become established outside their city. Egoexpress played techno parties with a Fostex 8-track recorder and punk energy, and the club crew didn’t quite know what to make of them. They weren’t Detroit purists, nor Berlin minimalists, nor 80s revivalists, and they couldn’t care less. Influenced as much by Green Velvet as garage rock, they charted their own course, resisting the predictable forms of verse and chorus, choosing instead repetition, grit, and groove. A residency at the margins gave their music a lasting edge, a refusal to conform that now sounds oddly prescient.

By 1999, thanks in part to an invitation from Westbam to play Mayday, they were finally embraced into the wider electronic fold. But by then, their work had already crystalised its core ideas. The ‘00s wore on and electroclash exploded. With their punk background, brash saw-saves and towering beats, it would be easy to consider Egoexpress as forerunners, though in truth they bristled at the retro fixations of the scene. They didn’t want to return to the 80s and the boredom of East Frisian adolescence — they wanted to burn through the now.

This retrospective, compiled and curated by Mense, offers a long-overdue reintroduction to one of Germany’s most fearless electronic duos. Neither early enough to ride the house wave nor comfortable cashing in on the electroclash moment, Egoexpress fell between the cracks. What they left behind is timeless: a heartfelt, headstrong catalog that celebrates instinct over intellect, rhythm over rigidity, and emotional intensity over sonic orthodoxy. A Piece Of The Action is a reminder that often the most vital music doesn’t fit the moment, it defines one of its own. - Patrick Ryder.

Joy In Repetition is the first ever anthology of some of the best of Hot Chip. It covers the band’s work, from their landmark EMI/DFA debut, 'The Warning', and traces their artistic evolution up to the present day. Packed with stone-cold bangers from across their career: 'Ready For The Floor', 'I Feel Better', and 'Flutes', to name a few. Alongside, new track, 'Devotion', which sees the band in full voice, merging pop hooks with their unique dancefloor mentality. 'Joy In Repetition' highlights the consistency of their stellar career so far and cements their status as one of the most important British groups in the last two decades. To complement this, the album comes housed in a cover designed by legendary British pop artist Sir Peter Blake, mastermind behind the iconic Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band artwork. and features a little monkey with a miniature cymbal (a little nod to 'Over and Over').

The 'Joy In Repetition' really is in you.

STAFF COMMENTS
