the idea behind lbl is very simple. we keep getting sent music that we really want to own on vinyl, so weve decided to start pressing these tracks ourselves. everything we have scheduled has a club feel, but past that we think youd be hard pushed to pinpoint a specific style which dominates our releases. for our first release we have music from scott fraser (crimes of the future), people get real (join our club), jamie blanco (ess o ess) and joonipah (nixwax). we could list a whole load of meaningless genres to describe the music to you (machine house, neu acid, bashment techno and hi tek soca) but we think its best you just listen and make your own mind up. currently, all lbl releases will be limited to a pressing run of 300 copies

eosophobia - a morbid fear of daylight. a title fitting of primary colours latest release by the australian duo, the echo inspectors. conceived on a dark autumn night, eosophobia is a creation of the strange and disturbed. entities materialize, delicate and shy, these beings thrive in the dark. their conviction becomes evident as the night sky turns a darker shade of black, a pulsating and heaving sub sonic landscape emerges for the creatures of the night. life is short lived as dark turns to light, they scampering in to the shadows. resoe, copenhagen s ruler of the deep and dub, takes control of this creation. forming and reconstructing it in to a more powerful, ravenous creature. a fear of light fuels this being to become menacing, unstable and unpredictable. vigour builds swiftly, seething as the cold autumn night goes on. confidence only grows stronger and stronger as the night feeds its hunger only to be destroyed with a sudden shard of light, withering to oblivion.
