L&S 031: WOVEN SKULL - THEY WERE PEBBLES BUT I CALL THEM STONES 10" EP
/ / / / / / / / / / LISTEN HERE - CLICK HERE RIGHT NOW TO BUY !!!!!

Based in the middle of a woodland in the sparse countryside of Co Leitrim, Ireland, the core trio that make up Woven Skull (alongside an extended family of guests and collaborators) explore the limits of repetition, minimal instrumentation and free improvisation that stretches the breadth between delicate silences and harsh cacophony with continuously retaining traditional elements of song and musicality. On this release, which was recorded in SARC in Queen’s University Belfast, the group used the vast acoustics of the theatre (designed by Stockhausen) to push the of flute, mandola, viola, percussion, guitar and synth into improvised pieces of light melodies and blasts or ecstatic noise.

NEW! NEW! NEW! Its been a while and three amazing records appear at once. Further details of these in the releases section.

In brief:
L&S 025: KOGUMAZA - LP, Written and recorded in collaboration with bassist/banjo player Nathan Bell (Lungfish, Human Bell), this is the band’s first release since the sold-out split single with Hookworms on Gringo Records over a year ago. The collaboration came about following a short tour between Bell and the band and is Bell’s first recording on bass guitar since Necrophones by Lungfish. In short Kogumaza with rumbling bass drones / tape loops of shimmering orchestral passages and a Moondog cover thrown in! Ltd to 500 copies on transparent vinyl and comes with an 8 page booklet of artwork.

L&S 026: GOLDRING / THOMSON: For All #1: Nines - 12", Long time loves of this label ENABLERS continue to deliver amazing music this time round see's Joe Goldring & Kevin Thomson guitarists of Enablers record 2 new instrumental tracks shaped by a one month residency at the Marin Headlands Center For The Arts just over the Golden Gate bridge. In the old gymnasium the pair laid out over a dozen electric guitars and created a self generating wave of ever changing feedback and tone.The two songs presented here are a direct result of that experience. Ltd to 200 copies with an 8 page booklet of artwork.

L&S 028: DANIEL BACHMAN LP: Very excited to be putting a release out by Daniel - after getting him over to the UK and being blown away by his talent, work ethic and general good human being skills we wante to do soemthing for a while - here it is. This Self Titled LP is a mix of about a year of home recording with friends and alone getting a mix of sparse feedback to string centered trio. Everything has been recorded between the December 2013 through May 2014 and cut to tape. Expanding out a bit from the strictly solo guitar world this album explores a little more than Bachmans previous endeavors. Enjoy. Ltd to 250 copies housed in a screened book tape bound sleeve.
