We're giving away two more Bandcamp codes for The Gateway Tape - each one handcrafted by human labour, not auto-generated. In stark contrast to the music itself, which rumours claim was largely AI-generated. 👎

Glad to see you're still kicking around Adam. You've always been one of my fav labels although I'm a little biased. Would still love to release with you one day. Just thinking about the dreamy artwork

Shatterfoil Industries @shatterfoil.bsky.social · Jul 26

Copies of qualchan. (@hyacinthindecay.bsky.social)- goodbye to all that. are now available!

Hazy, reflective, and most importantly excellently composed loops stashed into one neat package, with so much variety that it demands multiple listens.

The 30 seconds of silence / swirling noise at the start is the only good part of most songs.

The 30 seconds of silence / swirling noise at the start of your song is complete waste of everyone's time.

I have been very bad at listening to new music, but I have listened to some new music recently!

One Square Centimetre of Light- Nicholas Langley

A beautiful little slab of ambient bliss. An absolute dreamy sort of zone.
