The Garden of Earthly
**In process of stocking** A new release from Trevor Wishart, inspired by the Bosch painting of the same name. He describes this as a comic opera. It was conceived as a 8-channel audio piece, in which voices are heard in several different audio environments, and where the words they use and the environmental context all metamorphose each time they return It is extremely dense using the voices of the characters as starting points for complex digital manipulation. Wishart’s idea for the opera, whi…
Masterclass
Edition of 150. A masterclass in linguistics and a repeat reminder of the trouble one can get into when carrying a name that is either too long, too short or too complicated for most tongues to twist around. The screen printed image on the flipside holds the key to this mystery. (And if you squint at it for a while it might also reveal Paul McCartney’s real identity.) Includes a bent piece of leftover screen printed carboard and a sticker.
Sigtryggur Berg Sigmarsson (b. 1977) is an Icelandic mus…

The album stems from Palt…

Work
This is a brilliantly weird and hypnotic record, featuring pretty much nothing but the voice of conceptual artist Hanne Lippard reading a variety of texts typical of our digital age - things like autoresponders, FAQ’s, social media posts, bot-generated spam mail etc (or as she calls it ‘degenerate, or “b-language”) as a continuation of her ongoing investigation of the differences between the spoken and the written word. The result is entrancing, funny/sad in an almost Larkinian way and highly th…
Revolutionary List (3) Glastonbury 50
**Edition of 40** In 2020 the world-famous Glastonbury Festival was cancelled due to a worldwide plague.

Occupying the dowsing line of the Pyramid Stage as a makeshift execution site, the Museo De La Bom…

Automatic Writing
Lovely Music present a reissue of Robert Ashley's Automatic Writing, originally released as an LP in 1979. Following on the heels of Private Parts, forming some of the early building blocks for his long-standing preoccupation with language and the human voice. Here he examines language at its primitive and impulsive root, where it seeks to express an inner state - to speak into the silence, to oneself, even if no one is listening. At one deeply personal - drawing on Ashley’s notions of 'involunt…
