after seeing a post on the old instant gram, i had a memory of being incredibly fond of an artist called Spooky Black so i went to check out what happened to them and he changed his name to Corbin. i was worried they stopped making music, but it turns out they released something in 2025 - W

I'm older than some of you for sure but not old enough to have seen Honor Role before they broke up in 1989. A metallic/post-hardcore take on the Southern pastoral, just mad rigorous and tense. The band's singer Bob Schick passed away a few weeks ago and I've been revisiting his body of work, which you can hear some of (along with a selection of farflung Albini recordings from other artists) here: https://www.mixcloud.com/mosurock/heathen-disco-show-377-1-june-2024/

X-Cetra is the latest Numero Group offering, whose releases run the gamut from early White Zombie to lost gospel. This is neither. This is sleepover-core.
In the year 2000, four pre-teen friends Jessica, Ayden, Janet, and Mary wanted to create their own pop group. Armed with a microphone, they recorded vocals and then one of their mothers married those vocals to like some obscure German minimal wave musician.
One of the kids, Ayden Mayeri, grew up to be a successful actor and has revisited some of these recordings over the years and now they have come to fruition with a killer physical release complete with old photos and doodles.

this morning, I woke up to an email in my inbox announcing the end of Posh Isolation’s activities. as the bittersweet news hit me, I want to use the “P.I” box to give them a rec because this label was, and still holds, a significant part of the end of my teens and early twenties
the internet was a little bit different back in 2014 and plataforms as rym, reddit, last.fm, yt, soundcloud, bandcamp, and even soulseek still held more relevance than spotify when it came to discovering new music. there was a stronger sense of community and curiosity for independent artists in those spaces. “one release” acts and limited cassette tapes were a thing too
and just as some found us, and some we found, in far faraway country while digging sacred bones releases(another great label), I came across an album titled No One Dances Quite Like My Brothers by a duo called Vår. And that led to Lust for Youth and, eventually, Croatian Amor, all under a so called label: Posh Isolation. I had never heard of them before, and as far as my broken english and nonexistent danish could lead, that was the start of a boundless appreciation for me... on that note, I am forever thankful to the internet no borders
the Copenhagen-based label started in 2009 as a way to support and open room for the upcoming danish "experimental" scene they were in/evolved to. over the years, it released 297 records, 14 compilations - as far as I know, created a singular language, made amazing merch… and, just like this worn out jacket of mine, reminded me how quickly time passes by
check out some of their compilations or save a last dance at their upcoming events on feb 22nd and march 13th in Copenhagen, if your geolocation allows it
I wish I could dance quite like their brothers,
