Cassette + Digital Album
Super-limited run of vibrant neon cassettes, with sleeves hand screen-printed at Print Club London ^^__^^. There are two paperstock options...

They're being duplicated LOUD as we speak at bandcds.co.uk

Note — images are mockups — the finished cassettes will differ visually in that they are 26 minutes long (so contain less tape than the cassette pictured) and will have clear cases.

Cassette colour is entirely accurate and artwork colour will be matched as closely as possible in the screen printing process.

about

Benefit release for: SOLACE
(working with victims of domestic violence)
& NORTH LONDON ACTION FOR THE HOMELESS (providing free food for the most vulnerable in the local community)

Deep drones and distracted beats from a precariously emerging London; this mini-album is part two in a three-part series of modular jams put together for charitable causes.

'There Were No Taxis' was a phrase repeated by Dominic Cummings twice while he justified his lockdown adventures... The implausibility of his statement overall serves as a microcosm for the culture of deceit he has nurtured throughout his career — and ripe material for some broken beats on this release...

All tracks are unmastered beyond some basic EQ, compression and normalisation. Some frequencies may be beyond acceptable norms.

When We Get Together
by Deep Dark Blue

Percussive, sun-drenched LA electro-psych vibes which ooze light-leaked road trips and the promise of brighter days to come... Collapsing Drums

LDOLS
