Golden Pear
Moon Glyph Records head Steve Rosborough returns as Omni Gardens with a brand new album entitled “Golden Pear”.

A tranquil, pop atmosphere permeates the album as the songs flutter between bleary, unhurried tunes, warbly soundscapes and odes to lazy afternoons. Create…

Originally released in the mid 80's on UK cassette label Bite Back!, this nearly lost gem finds new life 30 years later on Cocktail D'Amore Music. Steve has cobbled together a superbly melancholic electronic concept album. Wistful melodies often evoke sentiments of a lost childhood and hazy English mornings. Each song within remains untitled allowing full perceptive freedom as to what they all communicate, a language for the feelings that have no name. Untitled A1 - A6 leads one along intimate s…

From Dusk Till Dawn
Tip! The new record by The London Sound Survey, From Dusk Till Dawn, is a dramatic journey, sonically celebrating the cyclical continuity of materiality’s impermanence.

Released posthumously on Persistence of Sound, this is possibly the last album by Ian Rawes, the founder, artist and archivist of The …
