"Pink Skies", Mountain Movers' seventh studio album finds the New Haven group diving further into an interstellar wormhole, guiding the listener through an enchanting labyrinth of squalling feedback, heady P.S.F.-influenced psychedelia, motorik rhythms, and mind-flaying guitar interplay. ~ OUT OCT 5th, 2018 via Trouble In Mind Records (www.troubleinmindrecs.com)

ERAAS - At Heart (The KVB Remix)

While on a recent tour of the Western United States, London-based The KVB moved heaven and earth to make this wonderfully meditative 3-part episode possible. Working with award-winning documentary filmmaker Alix Lambert (The Mark of Cain), cinematographer Conor Simpson, engineer Griffin Rodriguez and editor Forrest Borie, the episode employs a simple set of colored gels, soft shadows, playful synth melodies, one cranky drum machine, one enormously loud Jazzmaster, and two unflinching performers. Welcome to the bracingly Zen-like inner-world of The KVB.  

BIO
The KVB is the prolific A/V outlet of artists Nicholas Wood and Kat Day. Combining goth-tinged, abstract imagery with a love of shoegaze guitars, minimal synths, reverb-drenched vocals and rigid beats, Nicholas initially started The KVB as a solo project. After frequent collaborations throughout 2011, Kat Day joined permanently on synths and visuals. Fast on the heels of several EPs and limited-edition cassettes, 2012 saw the release of the band's acclaimed first LP, Always Then, soon followed by tours of the UK, EU, and Western US. In early 2013, The KVB released Immaterial Visions via NYC's Cititrax imprint. If your musical tastes veer toward hypnotic minimal wave and snarling post-punk, The KVB will definitely satisfy your darkest Psychocandy-esque cravings.

The KVB - Hands (at Room 205)

London, England. Ben Ayres & Tjinder Singh's own label. Come & join us for an independent take on music, music, music. Home of The Sufis, Cornershop, Sudden Death of Stars, Gloria, Matsuki Ayumu & The Smoking Trees, & The Masaki Hanakata and more. 

"Ample Play, masters at unearthing the world’s weird sounds” NME Magazine 

"Ample Play is truly a label of love, bringing you new rock in the great explorer's tradition of Elektra, Island and Apple." David Fricke, Rolling Stone, USA


Both Tjinder & Benedict are avid record collectors, who met when they both studied at Preston Polytechnic.  Tjinder became the Union Social Executive whilst Ben went to London to work in a vinyl record pressing plant.  As Cornershop took off and developed, so did the amount of Turbans they had to wear, and Ample Play Records is the culmination of all that work and experience, backed by freedom & enjoyment, with 'Music 10 Commandments'.
