NEW ARRIVALS: Vinyl - Growing, Mi Ami, Madlib & more

ANNE BRIGGS Nottinghamshire Tales LP
*** Vinyl only! The lost album!

DR. DOG Shame, Shame LP / CD
*** "Dr. Dog have peeled back the intricate arrangements of last album Fate to reveal the raw immediacy of a tight five-man unit honing their craft."

FUNKADEIC America Eats Its Young LP
*** NOW ON VINYL!

FUTURE ISLANDS In The Fall 12"
*** NOW IN STOCK!

GILES GILES & FRIPP Brondesbury Road Tapes LP
*** "US compilation of pre-King Crimson recordings which languished for over 30 years in a private collection. Over 70 minutes!"

GROWING Pumps LP
*** "The 8th album from Brooklyn, NY's Growing is another top-shelf freakout. Drum machines create dense tribal rhythms and form the bedrock for the loneliest dance floor in the universe. Vocal samples swoop in and out like starlings over effects laden synths and guitar."

SHARON JONES & THE DAP-KINGS I Learned The Hard Way LP / CD
*** "Sharon’s raw power, rhythmic swagger, moaning soulfulness, and melodic command almost single handedly stewarded today’s return of soul music to its more traditional sound. I Learned the Hard Way is the 'Daptone Sound' at its best."

MADLIB Medicine Show Vol. 3 2xLP
*** NOW ON VINYL!

MI AMI Steal Your Face LP / CD
*** RECOMMENDED "A joyful noise at the intersection of vicious high-energy. In this climate, when pretty much every band has some dub records at home and a myriad of musical influences have been rendered mundane, Mi Ami defines itself by turning inward. Twelve weeks of touring transformed Mi Ami from what friends described as a “fun time party band” into a lean, tight, near-telepathic unit, which remains fun. The album is far and away Mi Ami’s finest sounding, and the one which is most aligned with their live show."
