Sounds From The Other City

(the poster for which is displayed below )

GROUP RHODA is the one woman, new age, synth-pop group from San Francisco, a la Space Lady. GROUP RHODA recently completed a tour with the Soft Moon (those of the best record artwork for some time) and, after selected dates with Peaking Lights last year, finally makes it over to Europe for a headline tour in support of her debut LP  'Out Of Time, Out Of Touch' on NIGHT SCHOOL records. Her next LP is to be released later this year via NOT NOT FUN.

She'll be joined by APOSTILLE

misanthropic savant-pop from Michael Kasparis of PLEASE,  THE LOWEST FORM and etc

Here's the classic video for 'WRONG' and a  more recent and 'full on' live one:

We are delighted to announce and offer for sale the debut 7" single from  APOSTILLE . Double A side  featuring a reworking of   the misanthropic pop masterpiece 'WRONG' and a brand new song 'The Road To War'.

Limited to 250, screenprinted sleeve and hand-stamped label with lyric sheet and download code.

Comfortable On A Tightrope present the debut vinyl release from Apostille - aka Night School's Michael Kasparis' fractured pop utterances. Kaleidoscopic instrumentation and cracked synths frame two bona fide degraded pop songs centred around a lurking sense of misanthropy, albeit a misanthropy tempered with ecstatic tendencies. 'Wrong' is the mid paced groover for self-erasing western consciousness, possessing a chorus hook so insidious and fun it diverts from the content. 'The Road To War' takes a sisters of mercy in hypnagogia approach to anthems and produces a sing-a-long both unintelligible and seductively drenched in fervour and sweat.

BIRTHDAY TAPES MMXII explanatory notes

At the beginning of the MMXIIth Year of our Lord we started a new collaborative with our sweet-hearted friends GIANT HELL.
We called it BIRTHDAY TAPES, as it was to be in concert with the cosmos and zodiac-affiliated and but also because we wanted each object to feel like a gift, wrapped as they are specially commissioned ark work.
Essentially a 'singles' club with one split release per zodiacal month.
So in MMXII there will be contributions from 24 different bands /recording artists and 12 visual artists/ image makers/ illustrators.

You can listen to the 7 so far below.

The series can be subscribed to HERE or digitally HERE.

Alternatively individual releases can be purchased HERE or digitally HERE

There a still a few full subscriptions remaining, which, in addition to all 12 tapes, also include a hand-mae wooden box to keep them all in courtesy of WINEBOX PRESS as well as some other surprises  and printed matter.
