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.
The group's final document, a 7" released in 1986. This is better than the 10", trying for an anthem rather than a pop ballad. Twin vocals on the title track bring to mind the Au-Pairs, while the mersh b-side has some Tina Weymouth funk moves going on.
Read more...The group's 1984 10" is a much more polished affair, clearly modulating their sound for new wave pop stardom that never arrived. Not as singular as the 7" posted earlier, but there's still has an aspirations-exceeding-ability charm to this record. Read more...
1981 7" of scratchy and angular, minimalist post-punk by a band whose time to get rediscovered is now. PTA's were a Japanese answer to Delta 5, Kleenex or Raincoats. Simple songs, played with efficient amateurish vigor Read more...
