It’s been a long time - pt 1 - Laura J Martin & The Simonsound
Posted by: Simon in the simonsound, musicPart one in a series of long over due updates. Our new single with Laura J Martin, with whom we have been doing loads of great live shows, is now available in stores and online. Download or get the limited 7″ vinyl while stocks last. Jumbo Records in Leeds is a good bet.
Here is the blurb from Battered Ornaments Records, the label behind the release.
Finders Keepers’ fitful pocket empire Battered Ornaments Records rears its head one again with another bespoke vinyl release featuring the unlikely but essential partnership of Liverpudlian chanteuse Laura J Martin and The Simonsound - a sonic partnership consisting of Simon James and Matt Ford (DJ Format).
Analogue synthesizers, tone generators, and reel to reel tape machines buzz and whirr amongst the roots of Laura J Martin’s homegrown supernatural siren song as folk traditions merge with The Simonsound’s science fiction fantasies for this hauntingly progressive/regressive experiment.
This strictly limited edition (500 only) vinyl release is the eighth release from Battered Ornaments Records, an independent label with a DIY asthetic producing lovingly made limited vinyl runs of off-kilter independent music housed in jaw dropping sleeves created by top artists and graphic designers.
Beautiful artwork by Luke Insect.
