Revbjelde - HOOHA HUBBUB

Release Date: March 6th 2020
Format: LP CD DL
Label: Buried Treasure

The 2nd album by Alan Gubby [ The Delaware Road] & his protean noise folk collective. Recorded in Berkshire, England between 2017 & 2019 “whilst enveloped in a post-referendum smog of lies, schemes & misinformation”. Shifting from psych rock to glam & motorik free jazz to industrial soundscapes, Hooha Hubbub is a kaleidoscopic call to action & a lament for a country that maybe never was. With guest appearances by:
Peter Hope: vocals [The Box, Richard H. Kirk]
Jim Lacey: drums [The Magic Mushroom Band, Astralasia]
Andy Prince: bass + chapman stick [Sham 69, Damo Suzuki]
Emma Churchley: vocals [The Silvermoths]
Tim Hill: saxophones [Tongues Of Fire]
Steve Christie: vibraphone + ondioline [Vintage Keys]
Mordecai Smyth: Mellotron [Mega Dodo]
Jez Butler: mastering [The Twelve Hour Foundation]

Undulating Waters 3/Woodford Halse

A project which evolved from the now defunct radio show You, the Night and the Music on Sine FM in Doncaster, Woodford Halse is now a tape label which brings you the best in electronic, psychedelic, experimental and folk sounds.
A while back I was invited by Mat Handley (You the night and the Music) to contribute a track to Undulating Waters 3. Undulating Waters is a series of Musical Cassette and Digi collections featuring new or exclusive recordings from underground artists from across the world. Musical artists included so far have been Polypores, Time Attendent, Revbjelde, Midwich Youth Club, Heartwood Institute, Grey Frequency, Field Lines Cartographer, Twelve Hour Foundation and absolutely loads more. My track on Undulating Waters 3 is called The Project Club. The superb design is by Nick Taylor (who I managed to meet at Deleware Rd + he has just done my new album artwork) and words by Paul Bareham.

A Super Summer CD EP Clear Out

Its time for a clear out and a tidy up. There are only 5 CD copies of The Disjointed Oddities and Other Such Things EP left. So with that in mind it is time for a Super Summer CD EP Clear Out. These last few copies are going for £2.50. So if you fancy a super summer audio bargin then bimble along to Bandcamp to grab your summer bargin.
Track five on the EP is a remix of the 2015 album track Broken Folk, the original version of Broken Folk can be heard on the album A Rest Before the Walk.
Broken Folk Spiricom Shakedown Remix is by Revbjelde who appear courtesy of Buried Treasure Records. Disjointed Oddities has been played by 6 Musics Stuart Maconie (Freak Zone) and Gideon Coe

Musically he walks a capricious, queasily disconcerting and idiosyncratic path. With his sounds balancing on the edges of radiophonic playfulness and acid folk's twisted pastoralism filtered through the dark prism of Coil-esque post-industrial decay he has assembled another collection of deliciously serpentine and indefinably nebulous psychedelia fueled by oneiric logic and arcadian phantasms.
Ian Holloway (Wyrd Britain July 2018)

A Child, the Hare and the Old Wooden Chair combines the cinematic retro-futurism of bands like Pram and Broadcast with samples and experimental sound-sculpturing. DIY psych-folk with haunted electronica, effectively juxtaposing woozy, spooky, surreal and spacey. A great set of tracks from this inventive experimental electronic artist.
Bliss aquamarine (July 2018)

The strange shuffling steam train beat, electronic whistles, creaks and a guide to etiquette at a party playing within, underline the complexities and delights of this exciting EP. The haunting beats and Cutleresque reminiscing are both haunting and strangely hilarious. Enjoy the heady hard stamping disco beats. Jump and nod your head in a frenzy of nostalgic enjoyment for a forgotten  future as the beat, sweeping synth and electro drum whoops sweep you along. musicforzombies (May 2018)

Test Transmission Archive Reel 34

Been quite a while since my last Test Transmission Archive Reel, and to be honest probably the last one for 2018. Will def be more in 2019, just a tad busy at the mo working on 10in ep release and new album. So this time round to keep you all going through the Autumn and Winter you have XTC, Mary Hopkin, Darren Burn, Revbjelde, Richard Dawson, Paddy Kingsland, The Twelve Hour Foundation, Guy Pedersen and loads more. So until Archive Reel 35 wrap up warm take care and enjoy the dark winter nights (I always do)

Buried Treasure Records, Revbjelde Remix album

Some time ago I got an email from the mighty Alan Gubby (Buried Treasure Records, Revbjelde) asking if I would be interested in remixing a Revbjelde track for a remix album that he had in mind. After I hesitated for about a second, I said yes please. So here we are a lot later and my remix of Revbjelde's track Cloister is now included in this Limited edition (100 copies) 16 track cd.  Featuring remixes from Revbjelde's 2017 debut LP by Assembled Minds, Time Attendant, The Twelve Hour Foundation, Keith Seatman, Zyklus & Revbjelde themselves. Also features remixes of Tony McPhee (The Groundhogs), Klaks, La Mort Subite plus rare downloads, live recordings & exclusive new material.  Very pleased (well chuffed is another word I would use) to have been asked to contribute to this project. 
Available from Bandcamp on or around 30th of April.
