And finally…
Our latest release by the San-Francisco based monster Ghosts On Tape is almost ready. You may have gathered from his track on our Wireblock 002 compilation that GoT is one of these dudes who effortlessly manages to join the dots between many of the genres we love so much, taking the best elements of UK Funky, Dancehall, Bmore and some un-classifiable sh*t we can’t even begin to label.
The resulting Predator Mode EP is the hottest tropical bouillabaisse you ever tasted, and to top it all off, we only went and got a remix from the UK Funky don known as Roska.
With fans already including Modeselektor, Hudson Mohawke, Diplo, Martyn, Kode9, Rustie and more, you want to get onto this sharpishhh. You heard it here first - standby for vinyl and digital in the next few weeks.

Hudson Mohawke’s (incredible) debut album ‘Butter’ is forthcoming on Warp. We thought it was about time to remind you of these bootleg tracks he made a few years back and we released on a hyper limited 12inch with our brethren at LuckyMe - if anything just to make sure these had a place in history rather than just a place on our corrupted hard drives.
Ultra limited repress hitting stores in the next month - if you slept on it first time around don’t do it again. Second editions will come with a green/blue B-side (different to the Red B side of first editions).

Hudson’s album launch party will take place in Stereo at our club Numbers on Saturday 18th October
