Not long to go now, until October's releases become available
Our Bandcamp shop will be open for business and stocked with our two new releases (described below), on Friday 3rd October from 0800 UK time, with a top-up later in the day, at 2000. If you're too late to pick up one or other or both of these releases at 0800, revisit at 2000, when a small number of held-back copies will be added.
Only one of each colour per customer please - orders for more than one of each colour may result in the whole order being cancelled & refund given.
Here are the releases:
DIT-076 Regeneration Breeds Regeneration / The Oldest Buildings in the World by DIMITRI
DIMITRI has spent a period of time reflecting on his recent philosophical adventures and has since applied his vision towards an exploration of buildings and how humans use them. Inspired by historical and modern architects alike, the people who have studied them and the eternal juxtaposition between manmade structures and nature, this release offers two numbers from a wider project - ‘Exploring the Relationships Between Buildings and the People that use Them’.
‘Music is liquid architecture and architecture is frozen music.’ (Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, 1749 - 1832).
Release date: Friday 3rd October 2025, available on 7” lathe cut records via the Do It Thissen Bandcamp shop https://doitthissenrecords.bandcamp.com/merch in an edition of 20 red and 20 white. These will be priced at £8.50 each, plus £3.00 postage.
