RECORD STORE DAY THIS SATURDAY!

WE WILL BE OPENING AT 10am!

April 17 is officially Record Store Day! Last year was a great success with a bunch of exclusive & cool releases on RSD & this year promises to be even crazier.

For details on RSD & cool artist quotes/interviews, wander over the RSD site

Along with sweet exclusives & a crazy amount of new releases in general, there are a few nifty things we’ll be adding on to make Saturday radder than the raddest radness, such as…

  • LIMITED PRIZE PACKS (including some of our sweet huge posters!)
    CHECK OUT THE PRIZE PACKS The way the prize packs will work is on an “ask first” basis – basically, if there’s a prize pack that you want, ask us at the counter & if we’ve still got it, it’s yours! Obviously the idea here is to get down early!
  • AWESOME INJECTION OF USED VINYL
    Not just a normal used lot, we’ll be putting out some sweet rare records, filling up some key artist sections & adding an extra 2 bins of “NEW ARRIVALS”, giving you 3 bins of used LP glory to rummage around in.

Paavoharju - Laulu Laakson Kukista

(Fonal) CD & LP
Blossoming from the minds of two brothers from Finland, it seems this fragmented work of melodic semblance & textural melancholy includes the whole Scandinavian forest & its elves. With glitchy bursts, music box curdlings, Finnish spoken word & angelic ghost melodies, it sounds as though it was recorded over the ebb of a tide. “Kevätrumpu” grazes between wind chimes and a lo-fi dance party, with vocals that flirtatiously allude a Finnish Kate Bush. “Italialaisella Laivalla” & “Tyttö Tanssii” sound like they’re left to be sung by a man on a tree-stump on the last desperate night of summer. This is living in a Scandinavian forest inebriated with memories of all-night parties in Helsinki – it flickers like an eerie twilight whilst carrying a bag of magic raindrops.
