northern powerhouse kick things into gear on their sixth release with snarling and grizzly analogue bass on the a and machine heavy percussion and distorted tones on the flip. one for dark rooms and deafening sound systems!

waging the war against disposable plastics, by providing you with something to treasure, we present np005, epic like heston. hailing from the edges of the site of the bloodiest battle on british soil, this marathon machine jam continues our series of yorkshire based artisinal electronics, touched with the exemplary finishing skills of dr marco antonio spaventi. we ve returned to the ultra lightweight sleeving format which saves you, the customer, room in your bag. screen printed in the searing temperatures of summertime york, all printing uses the tried and tested kitchen table printing technology and guaranteed, lounge-floor drying system. as you should be aware by now, this means the ink is thoroughly dry before shipping, so that transport weight can be kept to a minimum and savings passed on to you. one track, single sided 12inch vinyl

what should have been a quick process has taken a bit longer than we hoped, but thats the way of handcrafted products, be they ginger beer or sourdough bread, and like the bread, the vinyl is currently cooling down to ensure an undisturbed, top quality product. np004 contains two tracks, cunningly devised in yorkshire, reflecting the area s no nonsense attitude and warmth. the final touches of mastering, have been added once again by the highly trained ears of moog expert dr spaventi. this continues to give us a very important international dimension to what is still a local artisanal product. specially formulated to make you dance and give you something a little extra, we ve switched to stealth black paper sleeves for this release, and where cutting engineer failed with inscriptions, as can be their wont, we ve lovingly re-designed the label to incorporate details of the free gift we re providing

alex handley (auto sound city) and nigel rogers (perseus traxx) catch up on a regular basis to casually jam out on various machines in a kippax basement, then edit, twist and re-jam them in a york flat. housed in a white paper sleeve, this is a fantastic example of beautifully handcrafted yorkshire electronics, with a distinctively raw and rustic feel. the label, screen printed on a kitchen table, is a reflection of the punk ethic of the duo just doing as they please to please themselves. 100% handcrafted yorkshire honesty. limited to 200 copies!

ltd 100 copies - taking it back to the old school and manufactured in the space of 5 week, this handmade nugget of black crack beat the previous release and all it s issues. dr spaventi once again provides the expert mastering to some artisanal yorkshire electronics from northern powerhouse. the full range of frequencies have been lovingly captured and set for eternity into nice and solid, hand pressed plastic before being bound in gorgeously minimal white paper -inners-. adding individual nuance to each and every record, is a stylised image of the visionary york philanthropist, joseph rowntree. details of which tracks are which are lovingly incorporated into this image using a black ink to stand against mr rowntree s brilliance. the hand screened label, uses the latest in dual pizza/kitchen table printing technology™ with a tried and tested lounge floor drying system to ensure any moisture is gone before the vinyl is shipped, so that transport weight can be kept to a minimum and savings passed on to you.
