Hello friends!
Spring is here and we wish you well.
Thanks to everyone who has supported us on Bandcamp so far in 2021. It means the world to us!
We hope your outlook is starting to feel a little brighter. Whilst we won’t be announcing rescheduled shows just yet, we can see a time in the not too distant future when we will share a space and a moment, and dance together.
Bandcamp Friday is approaching.
On Friday 5th March, every artist selling their music and merch on Bandcamp will receive 100% of all sales.
Like many artists, we rely on a busy annual schedule of live performances and merch sales taken at shows to generate income. The amazing support we have received on Bandcamp Fridays and over the past twelve months has helped replace some of that lost income.
A few albums we’d like to recommend you check out:
AUTOMATIC – Signal
SUDAN ARCHIVES – Athena
PLEASURE POOL – Night Scars
GRAMME – Disco Lovers
MADMADMAD – Proper Music
NEW FRIES – Is The Idea Of US
SWEEPING PROMISES – Hunger For A Way Out
VARIOUS ARTISTS – Green Door Store Studio Compilation
VARIOUS ARTISTS – Hot Concept Records’ Hot Compilation Vol 1
TWIN GALAXXIES – Imminent Reversal
In other news, we’re excited to announce that we will be hosting a new monthly radio show called Juicy Fruit on Manchester’s new community radio station, Ripe Radio.
Tune in at 5pm every last Saturday of the month for that, and check out the other great shows already happening!
LOVE,

Hello friends,
Well wishes to you wherever you are.
Far from being a break from the grim reality of 2020, 2021 seems to have started as an out-of-the-frying-pan-into-
As you might be aware, one of the results of Brexit is that UK bands, particularly those at our level, will no longer be able to afford to tour Europe. As it stands, UK artists touring Europe will now need to pay for work permits, ATA Carnets (£360), EORI numbers to sell merchandise and much more.
This is devastating news for bands like us. Touring is freedom and liberation. It offers us the chance to meet new people and forge new friendships. It gives bands like us the opportunity to try and reach new audiences and to break down borders and barriers in a way that only music can. Music unites us in a way that politicians and bureaucrats never can.
We have written to our local MP Rachel Reeves to ask her to put pressure on the UK government to enter into urgent negotiations with the EU regarding the introduction of a Musician’s Passport; a reciprocal, free, work permit-free, carnet-free, EU-wide touring arrangement that covers musicians and crew.
If you would like to show support and write to your local MP you can copy and paste this email template from the Musicians Union.
In other news, Bandcamp Fridays are back in 2021 and we’ll be doing our bit to support other bands and artists on the 5th of February. We released a new album Chemical Reaction on double vinyl and download in June 2020. We also have a range of new tees available, featuring a design by artist Rosie Rackham.
You can find all of these on our Bandcamp.
Love & peace.

Jed has done a UK Garage Xmas Mix to help us end 2020 on a bit of a positive note.
We’ll be going back to the 90s/00s for this half-hour Xmas UK garage sesh, remembering good times we had and better times to come.
Pop this in your earphones on a run/walk and you’ll probably do it faster 😉

Rosie Rackham is an interdisciplinary designer and graduate of Leeds Arts University. In 2020 she was one of two graduating students shortlisted for the first online Global Design Graduate Show, organised by leading launch platform for emerging creatives, ARTSTHREAD and i-D in collaboration with Gucci.
We were inspired to contact Rosie after seeing her ‘Music Connects People’ design for MAP Charity. We love Rosie’s concept-led bold and graphic style which uses botanical, geometric and figurative forms to explore interpersonal and environmental relationships.
