Due to a misapprehension at the pressing plant we are forced to reschedule the release of “You Were On My Mind / Another Love” by The Kryng. At the moment we have to move the date up to April 12. We are terribly sorry for the delay and we thank you for your patience.

As of now the pre-order has been extended and the records will be shipped as soon as they get in. Hopefully before April 12.

Mark ten Hoor, Peter Kroes, Arjan Spies, altogether The Kryng! You might’ve heard of them, in fact last year alone they put out one album and three 7″s. Perhaps you know these guys from other formations: Combo Koedijk, The Kik, Les Robots, The Keefmen, The No-Goods and many more. If this doesn’t ring a bell yet, take this from us: This garage-rockin’ trio presents a bitter sweet slab of beat on your turntable. Two hot tracks that melt your insides in sheer desire on black 7-inch vinyl.

“You Were On My Mind / Another Love” // PRE-ORDER: From Monday MARCH 4 // Release date: MARCH 22.

The Kryng was conceived in Heavy Meppel in The Netherlands. In 2018 they released their second album “Don’t Dig These Modern Tymes“, the title is a statement that runs through the core of their sound; 60’s beat, garage rock or as properly addressed: nederbeat. Nonetheless they are not affraid to throw a bit of 70’s punk and grunge energy into the mix.

This piece of vinyl was recorded and produced by Arjan Spies at Studio Teepdek and mastered by the legendary Tim Warren of Crypt Records. Artwork has been very well done by Dutch artist Pieter Zandvliet. The record will be pressed in a batch of 300 pieces.

Remember those retro-futuristic robots from outer space? That crazy love-baby of Joe Meek, Les Yper-Sound and Terry Terauchi? Well, they’ve done it again. We’re pushing out another 45 of Les Robots. This 7” will be a run-up to their first album, which we will release later this year. For now; two new songs, and we must admit, they are K-I-L-L-E-R!

Le Guess Who? is one of the coolest festivals The Netherlands has to offer. It’s spread out through the whole city of Utrecht. They book the most interesting acts from all over the world, old, new, doesn’t matter. From 70’s Arabian composers to blunt garage punk. Last Sunday we were invited to host one of the venues of the LGW fest. On top of that both Pig Frenzy and J.C. Thomaz & The Missing Slippers were invited to play at their spin-off festival Le Mini Who? Where they offer all the best from NL. Both bands killed it! Needless to say we had a more than fantastic weekend! A big shout out to the organisation of Le Guess Who? and Le Mini Who? And anyone that came out to see these bands.

All the way from Tennessee, USA, we present to you: The Ghetto Blasters. Mean hi-energy rock & roll influenced by the ’77 punk rock of the Dead Boys, the all-female rock & roll of The Runaways and Japanese underground garage punk icons Teengenerate.

“Hot Rocks / Too Loose” by The Ghetto Blasters will be pressed in a batch of 300 numbered copies on 7″ vinyl. Pre-order from Monday November 5. Release date: December 15.

Why should we limit ourselves to just earthly delights? Right! We shouldn’t. An outer space formation has found our planet and indulged itself in the earthling’s 60’s treasures of instrumental rock-n-roll and surf sounds. Due to maintenance on the intergalactic express way they arrived over fifty years late on earth, yet here they are: Les Robots! [APPLAUSE]

“Do The Robot! / One Way Ticket To The Moon” by Les Robots will be pressed in a batch of 300 numbered copies on 7″ vinyl. Pre-order: from Monday October 8. Release date: Friday November 17.
