* 2021 Stock* Leno’s “Vida e Obra de Johnny McCartney” was intended as the next musical step after Tropicália, it’s full-blooded rock and roll approach intended to link the music that had already been made to the music that would be played a few years later.

** Last copies ** Watching Abul Mogard’s Live performance in Atonal Festival 2017 and his releases on Not Waving’s Ecstatic record label were somewhat of a milestone in Malka Tuti’s sonic aesthetics. His ability to touch us with those pulsating sonic textures coming out of his modular machine inspired us in MTHQ for years to come. We were more then happy that Mogard chose to contact Tapan about their album and eventually deciding to remix not one but two track from the Belgrade duo… It was like …

Until now, Sir Ashleigh Grove has been shrouded in mystery, having only appeared on a handful of legendary compilations on labels such as Broken Flag in the early-mid 80's and having briefly collaborated with The New Blockaders before inexplicably disappearing without trace around 1984. Sir Ashleigh's work has been compared to other Power Electronics artists of that era, in particular Whitehouse, Sutcliffe Jugend and Ramleh (Sir Ashleigh, in a live collaboration with TNB, supported Whiteh…

Things get a bit more tentative in …
