TINTED FROST

Posted on August 27, 2013 by simonabject

Tinted Frost – You Are My Destiny   Tinted Frost, what a great name. I had no idea what this would be like when i got it; probably goth or lame pop? No, turns out it’s brilliant 80’s D.I.Y. soul. … Continue reading →

DUB SYNDICATE

Posted on June 6, 2013 by simonabject

Dub Syndicate – Over Board Along with The Fall this is the only thing I’m listening to at the moment. Quite a well known band, for a change, and probably a fairly easy-to-get-hold-of LP. Over Board is the best one on … Continue reading →

THE THRESHOLD

Mêtroƶ – Cybonette This 7 is the other side of the blog coin. It’s the first charity shop record I bought knowing absolutely nothing about, that I thought was any good. This record started me buying things just because I’d never heard of … Continue reading →

Loaf Meat – On The Air An epic school project here, and the one that inspired my blog. For once, this is the actual record that came with the sleeve. It started me off in pairing up homemade sleeves with homeless wrong speed … Continue reading →
