SID Chip Sounds: The Music of the Commodore 64 - pre-orders are being shipped this week!

We only got very limited stock (about 15 or so) of the 2xLP left here - so grap one while you can, otherwise you can buy them in about any shop imaginable from Monday, February 20 on.

We also got some nice ( and, ahem, not so nice..) feedback from the press here, including a great review from Joe Muggs in Wire Magazine.

Q - “a fascinating selection” - 4*

Wire Magazine - “…. the combination of compositional skills and the sounds innocent vigour renders it addictive”

I lived about 20min from Crawley for 10 years. No idea what this Deigo business about but Gemma is pretty awesome!

woodpeckerwooliams:

A friend of mine does a very worthy thing, and spends his days creating open-source multimedia software for an organisation named Sourcefabric. One of their projects is the non-for-profit, open source Airtime Pro package- making life easy for independent radio stations around the globe.

They’re currently holding a contest ending this week, to select ten tracks that will be built into Airtime Pro as demos as part of the start-up kit. I’ve chosen a track (‘Diego, Diego’) to enter as it refers to a true story that I think deserves to be heard.

It’s not often I admit it, but I hail from Crawley, Sussex UK. There is a significant population of extradited Diego Garcians based there, and during a chance flick through the local newspaper on a visit to my ma and pa a couple of years ago I came across an article detailing their plight that really moved me deeply. Hencewith was born ‘Diego, Diego’ and I’ve kept the creased and faded cut-out, folded neatly amongst old love-letters and photos of my grandparents ever since.

The UK Chagos Support Asociation also have a website, which you can find here.

‘Diego, Diego’ is from the now sold out ’Patryoska’ (The Woolshop Productions, 2001) which is DUE FOR RE-RELEASE any time soon in Russia, on cassette,

through Full of Nothing. ’Patryoska (re-release)’ is just one of several smaller scale releases due out in the next month or two whilst ‘The Bird School for Being Human’ is now in the mix, readying for hatching. Keep your eyes peeled, news here as it comes… xx

Brand new song from Husband!

robotelephant:

Free Download - Husband - Flowers and Funerals - Water Over Night and Pre-Order RER010 - Robot Elephant vs. Tundra Dubs

From the RER side of the compilation comes Husband - a duo comprised of Gianlorenzo and Chiara, hailing out of Italy’s creative ground zero, Bologna. Last years “Love Song / Slow Motion” introduced them to a wider audience, and now they follow up seamlessly with a new relentless jam called “Flowers”. An album is scheduled for later this year- expect new exciting sound transmissions from Bologna soon.

On the Tundra Dubs side, download Water Over Night by Funerals, who are Mollie Wells and Casey Immel-Brown, based out of Columbus / Ohio, where they lately have been hailed as one of the most promising electronic bands coming out of the Buckeye State. Well, if we had anything to say, they should be regarded as one of the most promising electronic bands from the whole US! Water Over Night showcases our claim - a perfect dark jewel of engaging, sexy midnight techno.

Some of the artists are established since 2-3 years, some are brand new and will soon come up with debut releases.

As with all things we tend to release on our label, it’s an eclectic vision of interesting, unusual electronic music, composed by artists from all over the world- from Perth / Australia with Ourobonic Plague, to Bucharest / Romania (HipDieBattery), Germany (The Church of Synth), Mexico (Ritualz), Italy (Husband) and whole bunch of US artists with ∆Aimon, Funerals, Mascara, Grimm Soundsystem and I††.

Tracklisting:

RER Side:

Husband – Flowers

Ritualz – Heat

HipDieBattery – Bones

The Church of Synth – Geh Ins Licht

Ourobonic Plague – The Outer Alphabet

Tundra Dubs’ Side:

∆Aimon – Low

Funerals – Water Over Night

Pre-order + sound snippets will be available on Monday next week via the Robot Elephant Shop.

Definitely among Robot Elephant Records favourite Sounds of 2011 - Modern Witch vs. Os Ovni Split 7” and the Modern Witch - In Your Eyes 7”

I wouldn’t have anything to add to feastofbeast:

Modern Witch - In Your Eyes

So bummed I missed this Modern Witch release. Major sad kittens. I was all about their last vinyl 7” split with Os Ovni (still available here), but somehow this one drifted under my radar. Unfortunate cause both tracks are by far their best. More dynamic and refined with the same dark goth synths you crave…Check you the other track also streamin on SnDcLd here, which has a decidedly Crystal Castles feel to it.

In Your Eyes b/w Black Curtains 7” - Modern Witch is Ltd to 300 copies and ~~sadly sold out~~ OOP.

Correction it is nearly sold out, but Rough Trade has a couple copies left. Act quick if you care, I was super psyched!

One can only hope for a full length soon. Sooner. I want now.
