Single Released

The purpose of this vinyl was for it to be spread as far reaching as possible and to get it into the hands of folks that might appreciate it. As well as a slight sense of self satisfaction. This blog was set up with the purpose of people leaving their comments/hate/praise. We'd all appreciate your news and views. Where are you? Where did you find your copy? If I could put tracers in place I'd ideally have a big map of moving red dots - for the moment this will have to suffice. Enjoy and spread.

Ecological Records?

The tracks were recorded back in the summer of 2009 - only weeks before bass player/organist and 'general-despot-extraordinaire': Mark Johnson left for Siberia; where he has been living (or at least existing) for close to a year now. Recording took place on the outskirts of Cambridge in a shed hooked up to solar panels which in turn powered every aspect of the process! from amplifiers to mixing desks to effects and margarita makers and was produced by Mick Crossley of Flyte Reaction, Spooky Hi-fi and Sonic Ray fame! - highly recommended listening.

So, it could be said you have or at least have now been equipped with the means of possessing a genuine ECO-record! Also - the last we heard of Mark Johnson was that he was working for an NGO in charge of preserving Lake Baikal - largest freshwater lake in the world - so dont say we never gave anything back!
