"There really aren’t that many labels around that will smas

h you with shards of electro bolshiness one minute, soothe you with tuba loops the next and then allow you to fully embrace the jazz fiend inside moments later; but Slowfoot manage it and it make it seem like the most normal thing ever". [Oli Marlow - Rock a Rolla]

"...in the last decade Slowfoot's roster of acts and releases has coalesced into an eclectic home for music that might otherwise fall between cracks, but always hits the groove." [The Wire]

"The South London-based label procure a wealth of experimental and boundary-shoving talent, with all the fine artists on the label carving their own individual style - yet somehow sharing a similar ethos, a collection consciousness based somewhere in leftfield. Slowfoot bridge the multi-layered gap between old school kraut-jams and afro-beat, with contemporary electronica stylings." [The 405]

"Slowfoot Records is fast becoming one of England's foremost purveyors of essential experimental soundscapes, putting out records that utilise wildly innovative recording processes to make future-music built on the recognisable foundations of genres such as jazz, dub and electronica." [experimusic]

An opportunity too grab a copy of our latest release - Snorkel’s brilliant new double LP ‘Past Still Present Tense’.

“…the new one from London’s out-there, avant-everything collective…Past Still Present Tense grooves on krautrock and urban beats, with dub flavours and exciting, imaginative details woven throughout the beats and the bleeps. It’s like packing a whole lost weekend in the city into one hour and will reward the most catholic of ears.” (Prog Magazine)

Released in conjunction with Archaeon.

Excellent review by the good folk at Monolith Cocktail for the new album by Snorkel. Says it all!

“The organic and machine in a loose rhythm cross multiple borders to create both a post-no wave dance and more mysterious, sometimes creeping and dystopian sci-fi… …There’s much to discover and absorb with each play that I can imagine this collection will keep listeners very busy – a lifetime of work in some band’s cases.”

'Past Still Present Tense' available here -
