Arquitectos de Ruidos ‎– ------------------

Rugged Chilean experimental cassette from ’89 that fortunately wound up on Bandcamp. Heaps of good tracks on here but this is my favourite.

Bushes – Biotension

Majority of the plays on this are probably me. Danny’s ‘Biotension’ cassette from Sunday Danger. Essential, educational deep listening.

How I Quit Crack – There’s Something About that Name

Contemporary ethereal cover of the popular Christian hymn.

Meridian Crew on Practice Hours

A very young Meridian crew going bar for bar on Practice Hours.

David Chesworth – No Particular Place

Apparently this had a video? Some cool footage from 1986 via Australian music channel ‘Rage’.

CTI – Thy Gift of Tongues

Live excerpt from Chris and Cosey’s ‘European Rendezvous’ under their CTI moniker. Full video available online as a playlist.

Flux - Diese Augen

One of many incredible outfits releasing music on Berlin cult label Graf Haufen Tapes in the 1980s. Recently met the guitarist over a cup of tea. Top geezer.
