 LOEB006 – Blackout - OUT SOON!
Black Mustang/
Kerrier District/
Sleep Archive/

The Black Mustang sound was first aired on Black Devil Disco Club’s ‘In Dub’ album, with their take on ‘Constantly No Respect (The Phenomena Of)’ providing what was arguably the standout track in a very strong set. Described by the Wire as ‘Italo shoegaze’, their fierce analogue creations are notoriously hard to have an argument with.

‘Mad As Hell’ is a fresh collaboration with the magical Kerrier District (Luke Vibert) - Cornwall’s answer to Metro Area - who provides the chunky disco beats over which the Mustang stack layers of Moog, tripped out dub vocals and fx to create a kind of Chicken Lips meet Analord rave monster.

The Sleeparchive Disco Dub comes from a planet way out in the solar system where people gyrate inside their own heads and where dub is a powerful narcotic prescribed only to the clinically insane.

On the flip things get righteously warped as sheets of feedback battle intense Moog action, culminating in a climax of arpeggios and deep space noise. Truly psychedelic, disco mind funk from another cosmos, akin to LCD Soundsystem tinkering with Amon Duul’s testicles.

LOEB005 - THE CHOP - OUT JUNE 4th
The Chap/
Hot Chip/
Pier Bucci/
Vincent Oliver/
Zilla.

 Those A-list Art rock funksters The Chap return from extended touring and remixing of Beck and Bloc Party with a super far out disco biscuit that has something for everyone, whatever your sonic perversion.
 First off those men of the moment Hot Chip put on their best jaguar shoes and take you on an acidic trip to a deep dark dancefloor somewhere in the back of your warehouse mind.
 
2nd is the mutant electro shoegaze of Art school dropout ZILLA (government name Dylan Richards). Zilla is ‘down’ with Erol Alkan and has twisted the melons of many musical mavericks including New Flesh, Unique 3, Test Icicles, Warp and Ninja Tune.
 
On the flip minimal man of maximal talent Pier Bucci, provides an intricate piece of 21st Century electronic disco magic that recalls Isolee and Ashra. Niiiiiiiiice.
 
Last but by no means least the ‘poster boy of electronica’ Vincent Oliver, provides a deeply psychedelic trip into Mercury Rev tinged sonic fried ambrosia. What a gorgeous way to go.
