Scratched Vinyl

Putting out a small but super high-quality collection of used, original rock releases recently acquired -- some great sounds from epic artists.

More adventures arriving today...Kandodo - 2 releases ("started messing with a loop one winter solstice day, added loads of guitars, keyboards, cymbals, spamjos, bass, fuzz and fl**ge all in the key of the endless c/sea. removed layers and remodelled into these mixes, same but different"); Sueno Purpura - Souvenir (psychedelic shoegaze - magnificent!); Tokyo Flashback compilation ("Originally released in 1991 by Japan’s P.S.F. Records, Tokyo Flashback defined the breathtakingly unique and previously obscured musical movement that had been developing in Japan since the late 1970’s. The compilation features some of the earliest released recordings by Keiji Haino, High-Rise, Masaki Batoh’s Ghost, White Heaven, Fush*tsusha, Kousokuya and Marble Sheep. It captures the excitement and energy of a Tokyo awash in Technicolor and deep blacks; the music echoing Kraut-Rock, Psychedelic freak-outs, Garage and No Wave. At the same time it reveals astonishing, totally idiosyncratic expansions of rock music. In time, Tokyo Flashback expanded to a synonymous nine volume series that over the next two decades unveiled Japan’s ever-evolving soundscapes to the rest of the world.")
