Has anyone heard anything from this label?
My girlfriend knows the people who run it and from what I've heard of the label they're very good. They're also very good in an "art" kind of way- holding a phone up to one of the tracks dials their office, another is an asteroids typr game when a tape recording of it is loaded into a spectrum.
I've borrowed the "Raygun Administration" compilation and am considering sending a demo tape to them.

Interesting, Well I certainly like the track you get to sample at that URL. Know anyway I can get a promo CD or order anything from them on-line?
If you want to send demos off may I suggest www.expandingrecords.com? I think it would be best for you to check out some of their music first. (I have no idea where but I could possibly send you a few tracks off the 'Volume' album later) I can save you the hassle by giving you the address to use also. Demos actually get sent to one guy so as long as you write your details on the CD etc it will be checked out.

Have a look at this url .This is the sampler I have. Well worth it at this price! (Note they are a "real label", I mean they have the propellerheads and Ian Van Dahl etc. )

Sorry, That's my bad co-ordination again. I meant I've heard of Scissorkicks because of White Town. They did a remix for him.
I'd love to meet White Town, I was quite the fan of him.

I got that, 'Abort, retry fail EP' and underessed CD1 and 2 :) He was going to release another single but I never got it. I think the track was 'Damaged' or something? I can't remember now. All cool stuff tho. 'Your Woman' is the best of all IMO.

'Your woman' is on the 'Abort Retry Fail' EP so no thanks. But also thank you for asking.
I'll let you know what I think of the Raygun CD when I get it. I'm looking forward to it.

I'm a sucker for a nice house track. I loathe the Welsh in most cases.
