Today is a great Monday for releases. bbrainz releases his classic album internet lust on beautiful split splattered vinyl and cassette. Shall Not Fade, my favorite Lo-fi / House label is doing a massive bundle sale of their vinyl. Then out of know where BABEFAKE found some box set cassette cases and releases not only a new album but a 3 set box set of new music and old. Massive day for collectors but don’t forget to check out the digital release as well.
Did I miss a release? Let me know on twitter or instagram.
Physical Releases
internet lust by bbrainz (Limited Edition Tri-Color 180 Gram Vinyl)
I talked about this album when it was first released digitally on bandcamp (which apparently it was released quite some time ago but just made it to BC). Well now this actually very revered album is now on two types of vinyl and cassette. Grab it because it’s going fast.
For Those Who EP by Demuja (For Those Who EP 12″)
Demuja is a huge inspiration to me and I’m sad to see his first debut on Shall Not Fade not sold out. Sure this released a couple months back but I want to bring it back. Literally if you like lo-fi house, you got to own this. Don’t let the shipping costs (thanks USA) scare you off from really high quality dance music. If you are a fan of house or IDM music, Shall Not Fade is actually doing a huge bundle sale at the moment. Like almost criminal at how cheap they are giving away inventory.
BABEFAKE bundle
from Naughty Night
Here’s a first, I’ve never seen a bundle on bandcamp before. I didn’t even know that was an option, I think I know how Naughty Nights is doing it but still. Here’s an idea for other labels out there.
This is a limited run as only 5 bundles in total including 4 cassettes for the artist BABEFAKE. Albums: in a nice place CS, コンシューマーデッド CS, Private Love CS & エレクトロニックセンセーション
Digital Releases
تحت الماء by EMBA Soundsystem
Here’s a fun one. A relaxing experience of underwater sounds of mysterious textures and floating sounds to keep you centered but also wondering what might be hidden deep in the vast unknown ocean. Actually reminds me a lot of Telepath he was to make underwater music.
Promised Land by Reflections From Nowhere
A more upbeat ambient album. What’s the deal with artist using the same name for the tracks… I wonder what the thought process is on that. I guess my favorite track is track 3.
G҉i҉g҉n҉e҉s҉t҉h҉a҉i҉ ҉t҉h҉e҉ ҉O҉b҉s҉c҉u҉r҉e҉ by ▲ΣTHΣR░विज्ञान
G҉i҉g҉n҉e҉s҉t҉h҉a҉i҉ ҉t҉h҉e҉ ҉O҉b҉s҉c҉u҉r҉e҉… Holy hell did I have a hard time reading that which is weird since I’m normally good at reading those cryptic typing like this. Just like the album art and weird typography, this mind melting and dare of looming death just feels off and quite a trip
FYI, for some reason WordPress doesn’t let me paste the way this album name is on Bandcamp
...Into The Void by Asura Revolver
“…Into The Void” is the first part of a charity compilation, proceeds will be donated to the Kākāpō Recovery Trust. There are only 211 kākāpō alive today, this comp will be free for all but we highly encourage donating either via bandcamp or directly to them. – Asura Revolver
