Splintered with 'The Horrors of Linden', a new song (on the most recent album, 'Between Scylla and Charybdis'), last Saturday at Cafe OTO. We are (slowly) working on a new album, too.

Still very much in the throes of shipping the EXTNDDNTWRK 'Albus' 2LP on Fourth Dimension Records. Fantastic electronic music by Andrew Fearn of the Sleaford Mods that's unlike most of his work in them and is possessed of a more cinematic quality yet is rhythm-bound and perfect for a long late night drive or sinking into the sofa after a hard week's graft. This album would have probably been better served by a CD but we like vinyl (as well as CD!) due to the advantages served by the packaging and the fact we can do things like press 500 on blue vinyl and 500 on black vinyl. The first 100 orders also come with a signed postcard from Andrew Fearn and there are still 15 left! While I'm unable to ship orders again until later next week because I'm away till then, I'm more than happy to add more orders to the workload. Really is a good album... and another reason why I baulk when people sometimes try and convince me my labels are dedicated to 'noise', 'post-industrial', 'experimental' or whatever music. For me, 'Albus' is a triumph for the label. Just fantastic electronic music produced by somebody who has been perfecting his craft for years. No gimmicks attached.

V/A 'Morality' 2CD reissue of the classic Broken Flag cassette from 1985 coming soon enough on Fourth Dimension Records
_____________________________________________________

Following the limited edition CD reissue of Broken Flag’s 'Never Say When' compilation earlier this year comes this new reissue of 1985’s 'Morality', also originally released as a cassette on the same label. Featuring too many tracks to go on one disc, however, 'Morality' is now presented as a 2CD set remastered by Puppy38. As with 'Never Say When', this compilation documents the nascent work of many artists still active today in one form or another besides a number of others who appear to have been lost to the ether but certainly played a part in capturing the spirit of the time. Between them all we are treated to raw and abrasive electronics, post-industrial experimentation, spoken word and an overtly DIY sensibility Gary Mundy’s label defiantly created its own stamp on.

Packaged in a six-panel sleeve faithful to the distinctive cover design/images of the original, besides an A4 sheet. Limited to 500.

Due late November 2025 on Fourth Dimension Records.

The discussion with Andrew Liles on the Fourth Dimension YT channel is now live and linked below. If you are interested in his upcoming entry in the subscription series of limited edition LPs in Lumberton Trading Company's 'Elite Editions' series, 'To Arrive at Nowhere', please see the pre-order details below the video. The set of subscription-only LPs also includes exclusive releases by Nick Mott, Reverse Image, Bass Communion, :zoviet*france: and irr.App.[Ext.]. Over 60 of these have already pre-sold so don't hang around if interested (there are presently two options available to subscribe, too) as that's actually around half of what will be possible to get as the set! I 'think' (hope!) the Andrew Liles LP will be ready in November. Nick Mott's LP will then follow (and I'm sure there will be a discussion with him on the YT channel as well!).

Andrew Liles is a prolific solo artist who, during his entire career, has collaborated with a vast array of fellow sound explorers (including Edward Ka-Spel,...

Andrew Liles' 'To Arrive at Nowhere' LP is the debut on Lumberton Trading Company's rather tongue-in-cheek Elite Editions subscription series. Each LP is limited to 150 and forms part of a set that can only be subscribed to via the label direct. The other albums in the series are by irr.App.[Ext.], Bass Communion, Reverse Image, Nick Mott and :zoviet*france: (their album will actually be a double). Pre-orders are coming in regularly and, given that only around 115 copies will be available (after royalty copies, etc. have gone out), almost half are already accounted for. There are two options available to pre-order this series. Go to the links in the information below the YouTube links, if interested...
