WHAT'S THE POINT?
The intention is to promote people who make beautiful music.
The intention is to introduce you to the people who have been carving their own path...with no care for what anybody thinks.
We try not to post things that are still for sale but sometimes post things that are not easily available. If you like what you hear, then find these people and tell them how great they are.
Better still, tell them and then seek out their new releases and buy them. We add links, when they are reliable and active, so that you can keep track if you so wish.
Always go straight to the artist or the label where possible. That way, the money goes straight to the people responsible for this art. These people rely on our support to keep going and make more quality releases!
Please feel free to leave comments as you go along...at least then we know you appreciate this stuff (or otherwise) and you're not just a bunch of freeloading file collectors.
If you made this music and we have pissed you off by posting any of this, please leave a comment in the post and the offending articles will be removed.

It was 33 years ago, there was no internet, not many people were into it. For me, in 1981 Throbbing Gristle opened my ears, Whitehouse and Merzbow were both the alpha and omega of noise music (no need to listen to others who sounded the same) and Nurse With Wound taught us that labels don't mean anything. Punk rock seemed like toddler music. Compilations like the Elephant Table / Three Minute Symphony / Fix Planet / Deutschland Compilation / Tokyo-Paris / Rising From The Red Sands / Sensationelle were some of the the initial guides. You are teaching history and doing a fine job.
This blog truly is a treasure sometimes
Hi Badgerstump,
My name's Robert Olver and a long time ago I had a project called Freedom In A Vacuum.
I'm a long-time lurker here and rarely comment, but I want to say that I'm glad you find worth in our efforts from all those years ago and how nice it is that you're posting some of it here and saving it from simply falling off into the void and being completely forgotten. It deserves better than that.
Wonderful blog you've got here! Thanks for going to the trouble.
All the best,
Rob
