Last updated: 2 October 2025

summer 2025 turned out to be an unexpectedly challenging period in my life, which afforded me very little time or energy to devote to the label and music - my apologies if I have missed emails and dropped contacts..

Perhaps it's true - that which doesn't kill you makes you stronger ..... but all the same, it can still certainly fuck you up!

 

I'm back and working torward 2026, which is looking to be one of the best years in the history of the label, with some fantastic releases lined up..

One of which is the Esoteric vinyl box set edition, which I have spent many years planning and curating - a release that will be my proudest moment, as the pinnacle of over three decades of working, and friendship, with Greg and Esoteric.

These are the things that keep this label alive with an underground spirit - whatever bureaucracy and crazy shit is happening across the world!!
