After a few smoke pit conversations, there was a natural motion to go ahead and document some of these electronic sounds blasting out of the decibel-controlled basements of Hackney and Dalston. Inspired by classic compilations such as Flex Your Head and No New York, we felt a compilation of this music was the best way to get “something” out there. A number of meetings in drab pubs kick-started the process of getting something together, followed by a series of wordy and confusing emails, and then ultimately a more streamlined online forum. The results were passed on to a few outside parties and here we are! A 12” LP on Desire Records (an obvious thanks to Jérôme Mestre for that).

All of the artists on this compilation are based within the general madness that is London, with two exceptions: Gertrud Stein splits her time between London and Germany, and although Lebanon Hanover haven’t lived in London, we gave them an invite as they know most of us on this compilation and are considered part of the “scene”.[info from label]
