Grass Rewound in Fluid Radio Top10

I'm really pleased and honoured to have a release included in the Fluid Radio Top 10 releases for November. I'm a huge fan of the Part Timer remixes of Aaron Martin's Grass Wounds EP, its great to see others like it too. Grass Rewound will be available for pre-order in the next few days.

New tracks on Soundcloud

After several days of being unable to upload anything to Soundcloud I finally succeeded. One of several preview tracks thet will be released in 2010 on Under The Spire.
First up is a release by Chris Spearman aka ibreatheFUR. Will hopefully be adding tracks from Shotohirama, Ithaca Trio, Groundtruthing and a few others (hopefully!) in the next few hours/days.

ibreatheFUR-Things Have Changed Places

EDIT: Finally managed to get a few more tracks up on Soundcloud. Take a listen and let me know what you think.

Black To Comm-Alphabet 1968

Yet another brilliant release from the always reliable Type Records. Have these folks ever released a duff album? I can't remember if they have. Head over to Type Records to listen to the release, then get yourself a copy at either Norman Records or Boomkat.

Bue Nordstrom & Dag Rosenqvist-Replica Archipelago

A great album by Dag (Jasper TX) with spoken word pieces by Bue Nordstrom. I really enjoyed this album, not a typical Jasper TX album but a great listen all the same. Available now from Norman Records and Boomkat.

Damian Valles-Rural Route No.1 3" CD

I was lucky to receive this absolutely gorgeous 3" CD from Damian yesterday. Its the rural, (slightly) quieter cousin to Count(r)ies . The packaging is really special, made by Standard Form Printing. I strongly advise you to grab a copy of this while you can.
