Just realised it’s 06/05 now. Fell before the first hurdle. Having a wee chortle at my own stupidity there. If you can’t laugh at yourself, then you shouldn’t be allowed to laugh at all. In fact I think that’s the laughing police just passing by window just now. Not stopping at my house ! See ye’s later.
I better be quick, tell you about the 4 great records I brought home today, and don’t type pish. That’s what I’m going to do.
First of the four, is Lutto lento – Dark Secret World LP on Where to Now. Oooft. Yes. I loved the Lutto Lento 12 on WTN from while back.. and this record is booting me in the same baw… maybe even the other one as well. And It’s a proper LP. Just listened to two sides, and I think it’s getting flipped. I’m on his journey. Mento Lento.
ASC003 – 7 inch from Niagara. Ascender is the label. We just got stock delivered during week, in the best 7 inch cardboard boxes think I’ve seen. 3 7’s long. 21 inches I hear you think.. but it was probably a bit more like 22 23 with the packaging. Good boxes. And good records therein. In fact no one saw these records getting delivered, we are pretty sure they made their own way here. In fact I didn’t even put it on my deck right now. I’m currently standing arms aloft, saying Praise to the Techno Gods for delivering unto me ! . whilst at the same time, thinking, have I got a Techno Ali Bongo in my midst.
NCA004 – Dunno much more about. Apart from we are distributing and it’s a serious record. I have actually been looking forward to getting this TP.. as heard some of their music before… on Funkineven’s radio show, and we also had some of their tapes in the shop.. that I really wanted to hear more, and even got my old cassette deck wired back up especially to listen.. and it chewed the tape up. But I’ll try again.. it’s a double tape deck, with a dolby button.
and the last one.. which is a bit different from before.. shite, I can’t even read the name. I think that’s down to the artwork being a bit blurred, and not my eyes. I’ll need to check that again tomorrow. It does though sound like Prince and David Bowie camping out my back door.. in Barrhead… with me shouting out the window, ‘Howw cunts, want to keep it down, I’m trying to listen to this new Broken Call Record’ !
It does win the prize for the best label art of the night
Records. Nice.
