Not new, but I don't think they've been mentioned here before:
Warm Digits: 'Interchange'

Lots to enjoy on this LP with its synthy, pulsating motorik odes to 1970's municipal architecture, large-scale civil engineering projects and public transportation systems in the North-east of England. LP comes with an accompanying DVD of the Interchange film. Streamed this a lot when it first came out and completely forgot to buy the LP... just rectified.

Their debut LP is also great: a Vitamin C drenched / sunshine-day-and-night krautucopia of synth/drum/guitar head-nodding space music.

Small number of copies of both LPs still up at Distraction Records: HERE

If you haven't yet, listen to Sirens by 88 Ultra (aka kingston from Blue Sky Black Death).

A limited vinyl pressing for Sirens was announced today. It's being pressed by SlyVinyl who did the Noir pressing. Their records are among the best packaged in my entire collection.



Fans of Noir really don't want to pass this up.

Some of the best instrumental music I own.

@Cult

Thanks for the heads up... ouch that shipping from the States hurts!

As some compensation I also grabbed the free album of remixes from their/his band camp:

Also those who like their electronic sound scapes on the ambient side may like to check out 'Dose' by Raica ('crystalwave'?), just been given a vinyl press following on from a limited cassette release:

Nice to see that mermaids have the disposable income to afford elective surgeries again. The seaconomy has been flat for too long.

[deafmetal]

Flat, indeed.

Bernard Fevrè's Black Devil Disco Club is getting a reissue worldwide in may. It can be had on Anthology in the States through Mexican Summer.

Nobody posted this yet, tweeted by Fabio...?



The phrase 'doing a Carpenter' springs to mind.

Anyone have info as to content?

EDIT: Just seen this: "It's a Studio Album from the other show I'm doing around. A little acoustic orch. Some of my themes and my myths..." Hmmm...

[toosoonjunior]

No info, but that looks promising.

I would love to see some of the greats get back into releasing new original material, even if only occasionally.

[Spun out of control]

Also, Record Store Day official release schedule announced tomorrow (March 10th) at least as far as the UK is concerned...

Having flashbacks to queues and crazy eBay auctions already, but rumours have already been reasonably exciting...

Let the madness begin!

[patcoolhand]

New Fabio music could be great - though Rewind title suggests re-imagining/recording of his back catalogue maybe?

And I've been enjoying 'Lost Themes' - definitely a grow-er...

[toosoonjunior]

Of course, initially everyone assumed "Lost Themes" was going to be a compilation of scrapped material from his old projects, but it turned out to be fresh material. We shall see what Fabio has in store.

[toosoonjunior]

I think I'll be picking this one up! Thanks, cultleader!

[deafmetal]

I saw this on Fabio's IG. He is already doing some modern takes on his classic material with the "Frizzi 2 Fulci" series, but who knows? I was actually going to post about his recent OST scores, which I still find to be quite good (House of Forbidden Secrets, Beware of Darkness, The Weeping Woman, etc.).

[Jimmy_Mike]

@mateo she likely went with the saline modifications over the silicone. I couldn't resist.

[DrRhythm]

If anyone missed out on the original version, this is the cover of the upcoming 52 repress - I like it a lot but will try to resist a double dip!

[spastic.jerk]

Wish I could snag one of the advance copies that they're going to have at the record fair around RSD, until then I'll be waiting for that 52 re-release though hadn't heard about it at all.

[chuck]

@spasticjerk I may well be going up to spitalfields on 28th March. If I do Id be more than happy to pick you a copy up.

Rocket Recordings reissue of GNOD's Drop Out: a meeting/ melting of minds with White Hills - 2LP white vinyl edition available to buy HERE

Picked this up in my local, and while it was the heads-down, one-note mantra 'Run-a-round' that initially hooked me, the album is actually a much more expressive listen; with uptight Neu-Dusseldorf meditational pieces and massive slabs of monolithic space-rock giving way to subtler variations, loose jams and shimmering synth vibrations.

'Well Hang' in particular is on heavy rotation at the Macready compound:[video]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bu7B7HJDNEg[/video]

[Vapourmeyer]

Shame that the two Alessandro Alessandroni releases via crowdfunding don't look like they'll meet their target. Dig deep people.

[texasvinyl]

I hope they figure something out or release anyway if they don't meet the goal... These are two killer records. Maybe someone else can help them out like Omni/Roundtable or Sonor Music Editions.

[Vapourmeyer]

I hope so.

[the thing]

From a link I had read on the musicraiser site, the Alessandroni and Tower of Power records would be produced whether or not the goal was reached (my money would be kept anyway, so I'm assuming the records would have been pressed.)

Don't see that link now, but I'll send a message to the label for clarity.

The Alessandroni record is just stunning. With all the stuff out there that actually reaches its goal, I can't believe this isn't doing better.

[Oiche]

Astounded this is underfunded given the value of offers. Now 41%

[The Cult Leader]

To whom it may concern...

Death Grips - The Powers That B



Death Grips final studio album is now complete and avilable for pre-orderLink!

These will probably sell out by the end of the day.

[The Cult Leader]

SOLD OUT! That was quick. I'm sure there is people on eBay already trying to flip em for $$$
