Well this all went out rather quietly. Reminds us of ten years ago when things would randomly appear on the site without warning.
First up, the second batch of 25 SX-1s are being made, and deposits are now being taken at £150 each, from the £3500 (ex. VAT) total. They make great Christmas presents for your kids, so grab one grab one here!. Please note that build on this run is currently unlikely to commence before late 2020, so your kids might be somewhat older by the time your synth arrives.
Secondly, and the only new music in this round of releases, is the staggeringly overdue third release by Seafar. Totem was originally due for release on 12th December 2012, completing a trilogy of numerically repeating releases. Only seven years late, the album can now be bought as MP3 or FLAC, with prices at £6.99 and £8.50 respectively. The blurb states:
Melbourne based electronic artist SEAFAR delivers his new album Totem. 16 tracks of dope grade electronic weirdness – classic Seafar.
Fun Fact – Seafar takes its name from a youth hostel in glasgow Brian (FSOL) lived in while training as an electrician pre FSOL years.
Fun Fact 2 – The youth hostel also features in Gregory’s girl a film from 1981
Bad news if you don't wear 'small' sized clothes: the other sizes of this very limited hand-printed Lifeforms hoodie have already sold out. Smaller fans take note, this size is likely to sell through very quickly too. Even at £38.
Even worse luck if you fancied one of seven test pressings of From the Archives Vol. 9 (or, indeed, Archived 9, as it's labelled here), as they've already sold out. Here's the page to have a look at anyway.
We're only a few weeks away from the Touched 10CD boxset, which will feature an array of new FSOL material alongside that of other artists, so look out for updates on that soon.
