2012 Plans
Even though our personal lives are busier than ever with Narrominded babies, demanding jobs, our own musical projects and blogs on grappige plaatjes, we have a nice list of releases coming up this year. We’ll start off with Matto Frank’s beautiful ambient / field recording cd China. Also expected this year: new work from Hydrus, Het Fukking Licht, Coen Oscar Polack & Herman Wilken, Hunter Complex and Garçon Taupe. Do you have any cool ideas to add to this list? Feel free to email us. Have a good one!
