Free Digi-LP From The Caretaker – ‘Extra Patience (After Seabald)’


Can’t believe we’re late on this one, being fan boy obsessed with the work of The Caretaker as we are. James Kirby’s solo project under this name is a constant source of fascination, and a meeting point on the musical landscape for left-field record heads. Kirby’s artistic output is mostly recognised through the V/vm moniker, edits and covers of pop…

Personable – ‘Spontaneous Generation’ LP [Peak Oil]


Proper surprised there are still some of these kicking around. I suspect Christmas brokeness has either set in early or that 300 runs of wax are going a lot further than they used to. Either way, some stunning techno on offer here from a new guise of M. Geddes Gengras, stepping in with the mix of other electronic and live…

RIP Jonathan Harvey (1939 – 2012)


Damn, seem to be doing way too many post-humous shout-outs lately. I guess the plus side of this is that with the technology and sharing available now we can do our best to ensure their lifetimes of work aren’t forgotten and are continued to be recognised. Kieron aka Charity Queen offered up the below words highlighting three releases from Jonathan…

Peder Mannerfelt – ‘Come Closer’ 12″ [We Can Elude Control]


Coming up to it’s fourth year and sixth release since inception, We Can Elude Control already sits as a favourite label for us. The man in charge of their release schedule and ever good-looking records is Paul Purgas, one half of Emptyset, who’s last EP came to us via Raster-Noton, and is absolutely stunning. If there’s still some available pick…

Pistol Pete – ‘Garlic Express’ 12″ [Lampuka] + Raimo Promo Mix


The Raimo run Lampuka Records smashed it earlier this year, with the Basic Famous boss inaugurating the release schedule with Tomas Rubeck on LAMPUKA001. Good news then that the next 12″ is rolling out to stores this week, hand-stamped limited wax styles as always, with digital coming in a little time after. The four-track EP comes courtesy of Pistol Pete,…

Just a quick video post this one, more info on the record closer to the release date, but with the constant fascination and love of archive soundtracked by house we wanted to share this around asap. Phonica-fam Brian Not Brian and a chap named Salik are launching their new label – Going Good Records – with a release from Atlanta…

Unit Moebius Anonymous – ‘SD23’ 2xLP [SD Records]


After being embarrassingly late on picking up on Unit Moebius, we’re making up for lost time through addiction to their output. The Dutch collective are not only credited as the godfather’s of Hague’s industrial scene but are also described as “Europe’s only true answer to Underground Resistance” – a heavy likening to carry but definitely an apt one. Having been…

Howlround (Robin The Fog) – ‘The Ghosts Of Bush’ [Fog Signals]


Can’t tell you how stoked we are that this one here made it to wax. We’ve spoken before about the talent and creativity that comes out of Robin The Fog (ref: https://awkmo.co/robin-fog-sesame-street-music-special) after some Sesame Street bonding over Kid Koala and DJ Food related bump-ins around town, and now the BBC studio manager and Resonance FM flag bearer has just…

NHK’koyxen – Dance Classics Vol 2 [Pan]


Properly not what we expected as the follow up to Dance Classics Vol. I, but still an LP that only took a day or so to grow on us. Kouhei Matsunaga is back on Pan under the NHK’koyxen alias to further explore the club side of of his electronic personalities, bringing us Dance Classics Vol. II less than a year…

Nad Spiro – ‘Atomic Spy’ [Geometrik Records]


A definite highlight this week for artist’s we’re just discovering came from electronic music creator Nad Spiro aka Rosa Arruti. Rosa’s well established in her home country of Spain, working with countless bands and associated with a tonne of experimental and underground projects of mostly unknown groups, labels and collectives. As a solo artist however, Nad Spiro has released exclusively…
