THE LOST TAPES RECORD CLUB PRESENT

'SONGS FOR THE SECRET APOCALYPSE, VOL. 1'

LIMITED EDITIION 7" SERIES ON EXQUISITE CORPSES

 

 

The Lost Tapes Record Club, a project curated by members of the band Clinic, celebrate the launch of their Exquisite Corpses imprint with it's inaugural release, 'Songs For The Secret Apocalypse, Vol. 1' - the first in a series of limited edition 7" vinyl records with digital download.

 

A-side, "Remember Happier Times", is culled from a high-school vanity project that was only ever circulated on home made mix tapes, circa 1985, credited to the Sefton band, Foreign Policy whilst B-side "Blue Skies" is a darker jam that captures liquid pulses, conjured from Chthonic Tunnels, put to tape in one trance-like take.

 

A follow up to the four EP cassette box-sets released throughout 2013 on Folklore Tapes in association with Finders Keepers Records, the Apocalypse series explores similar themes of psychogeography and musical alchemy in a quest to invoke a long forgotten history. Each edition, compiled by Brian Campbell and Carl Turney, comes with a stamped envelope of ephemera and is limited to 250 hand numbered copies.
