'There are a few labels which you can just trust. Erased Tapes is possibly one of them. One of their lot in Rival Consoles is doing something relatively novel and streaming a new track from his forthcoming record Kid Velo in various places across the internet over the next 11 weeks. We've got the VERY FIRST track and it's actually really, really good' – Drowned In Sound

'Rival Consoles is the geekiest band name of all time. It is lucky, then, that the music is so consistently entertaining. His second album, Kid Velo, is being released one track at a time over the course of 11 weeks, courtesy of TLOBF favourites Erased Tapes. We are very happy to have ‘Into The Heart’, the second track from that record, as today’s exclusive Song Of The Day' – The Line Of Best Fit

TRACK 4: AMIGA – EXCLUSIVE STREAM via Mixmag on May 3.

￼
ABOUT TRACK 5: I LEFT THE PARTY

On track five of KID VELO we see our imaginary character passing through an electronic landscape ala 8-bit Björk in the music video for Hyperballad. West continues to describe the making of his sophomore album: ‘With I LEFT THE PARTY I learned to reduce things to bare essentials. There's a nostalgic sadness in this song, which always hits me. First the breakdown, which becomes incredibly intimate and quiet, and then the build, so basic yet powerful, it creates this classic feeling of a story.’ 
Whether KID VELO left the party with or without the girl of his dreams is up to the listener to decide…

Coinciding with Rival Consoles I LEFT THE PARY single release, the Dance: Urban Practice programme at the University of East London, in partnership with Big Dance, are producing a high-profile Flash Mob at one of the most famous monuments in Central London on the morning of Monday, May 9, 2011. Featuring a musical score as diverse as Queen through to Michael Jackson, Rival Consoles I LEFT THE PARTY will open the surprise dance event. Keep your eyes peeled. Video footage will go viral the same day on SKY News, BBC and the Royal YouTube Channel.

Second Sight

Ritual

I had a lot of train journeys recently and I love watching the wires seemingly dance around outside the window. I wondered if we could be getting fooled by a similar process during our usual experience of movement and time, and thought it would be an interesting project for a music video set to the music created during the same journeys.

You can find that project and a longer explanation of the video ideas here: https://vimeo.com/241546182

For the music I wanted to bring ideas of frozen moments of the past into play, and no better excuse to get stuck in with the Prophet 6 on some lush classic analogue synth sounds for the main chord sequence, and plenty of nob noodling for a dance of modulating sounds around the main sequence. I wanted to keep it fairly sparse to let the chord patch be central, and just focus on trying to make every element, including the percussion, warp a little, so you can either listen to the track from a distance and hear the harmonic ideas, or delve in to find all sorts more hiding in there.

You can hear the whole EP here: https://lnk.to/WorldPassingByEP

Held

Founded by sonic architect and explorer Robert Raths aka ghostworker in 2007, Erased Tapes is a truly independent record label that has disrupted the industry and rejuvenated the musical landscape. The London-based label has consistently nurtured genre-defying artists from all around the world without losing its avant-garde ethos.

2015 saw BBC 6 Music radio presenter Mary Anne Hobbs stage an Erased Tapes evening featuring Nils Frahm and A Winged Victory For The Sullen at the Royal Albert Hall as part of the prestigious BBC Prom. It was the fastest selling ticket of the entire season. Shortly after Erased Tapes was awarded Best Small Label 2015 at the AIM Awards.

On February 5th 2017 Erased Tapes opened the doors to its new East London home, marking the 10th anniversary by introducing fans and the public to the new Erased Tapes Sound Gallery.

“Ten years of one of the most important record labels of the last few years“ — Gilles Peterson

"Over the last decade, Robert Raths’ label Erased Tapes has developed a sonic profile perfectly in step with the growing taste for quiet, meditative works on the cusp of ambient and chamber music" — The Independent

“The heart-string-tugging London label that floats gently between 20th century composition and ambient music” — Rolling Stone
