Pre-order 'Golden Times 1' on EP/DL here: phonofile.link/golden-times-1

Electronic producer Max Cooper and ambient master Tim Hecker rework Ben Lukas Boysen on his new EP Golden Times 1 – out on Erased Tapes, June 30th 2017.

Championed by many including BBC Radio DJ Mary Anne Hobbs as the standout track from his most recent album Spells, Boysen’s Golden Times 1 forms the very heart of his new EP with the same name. Boysen entrusted none other than Max Cooper and Tim Hecker to meticulously shape and lure the title track plus second single Nocturne 4 into two entirely separate territories, yet never drifting too far away from their original soundscapes. With Evensong the composer himself contributes a previously unreleased piece. It is yet another example that Boysen is still opening new and unexplored doors in a bid to challenge the existing realm of contemporary music he is very much a part of.

Words from Ben and Max, May 2017:

“Spells was somewhat of a conceptual release for me, so the choice of the remixing artists and where the original material could be taken was very important. Max and Tim, both being role models for me ever since I began listening to their work and who delivered this incredible abstraction, I felt were spot on for this release and were dream candidates to work with. Their ability to re-direct and even re-invent the original material, partially subtle, and with an almost brutish sense of imagination, honors the originals deeply.” 
— Ben Lukas Boysen

“Ben has been one of my most listened to artists of the past year or so. His last two albums in particular, have meant a lot to me, and provided me with focus when I needed it. So I was excited to have a chance to remix his work. I felt like I couldn't improve on his idea, but what I could do was take what was the core for me, and expand it. It was just a matter of running with the feeling I got from his original, sticking with his melodic forms and original instrumentation, and letting the growing intensity continue along it's established path to the only possible end point of total annihilation in chaos and distortion. My version is almost a continuation of his original if it was allowed to blossom into percussive format, rather than a traditional remix.” 
— Max Cooper

The golden EP cover art was created by Torsten Posselt at FELD as an extension from the initial album artwork he also created for Spells.

Tracklisting:

1. Golden Times 1	
2. Evensong 
3. Golden Times 1 (Max Cooper Remix)
4. Nocturne 4 (Tim Hecker Remix)

Cord Labuhn / Hello Cordy / Outtakes #OUT002
GET IT HERE: https://outtakes.lnk.to/HelloCordy

"After #01 'Gone Love' - the horizontal opener of the SLEEP OUT mixtape - 'Hello Cordy' is a brief introduction to what I file as 'hyphop' in my folders. A hypnotic, minimalist approach to hiphop beatmaking and electronica. Reduced and patient enough to inspire lyricists to write on top of it...This work in progress might end up as a song, somewhere down the drain. Picture taken at the canal next to my studio. Kitty has left the building. 1UP!" C: 

w&p: Cord Labuhn (www.cordlabuhn.com)
mixed by Jesco Lohan (www.jescolohan.com)


Primarily OUTTAKES is a music series : songs, tracks, beats, fragments and recordings. Produced and directed by Cord Labuhn, it is open for collaborations, guests and cameos. Episodes are available as streams, downloads and evolving playlists – accompanied by exclusive email, video, physical products, vinyl records, merch and real life matters...
Pilot was the „Sleep Out“ mixtape, first season cord/outtakes is airing weekly from now on.
These collections will see Cord Labuhn open up a selection of his personal folders and archives to give listeners an intimate insight into his mindset and creative processes whilst simultaneously showcasing the talents of some his closest friends and supporters. After a lifetime of crate digging and absorbing music, OUTTAKES sees a rejuvenated Cord go back to his roots and follows a rekindling of his love affair with Hip Hop that saw him hit the studio with iconic names such as KRS-One, Masta Ace and Jeru The Damaja.  Coupled with the recent geographical displacement of Robosonic - fate and the Atlantic Ocean have separated the pairing, with Sacha now residing in Los Angeles whilst Cord continues to live and work in Berlin - the time was right to think outside of the box with the creation of an outlet for these evolutionary ‘works in progress’ the first step of many on the road ahead. 

Aiming to channel the spirit of the memories that helped him form his cultural and musical identity, OUTTAKES won’t be limited to sonic offerings and will include photographs and video footage in its bid to tackle ‘real life matters’. What Cord means by this is open for interpretation but one meaning he attributes to the phrase is it being a metaphor for physical products you can touch, trade and give-away. Known for his affection for towels  - stick with us here - he’s also applied his mind to the invention of a towel/scarf hybrid which he calls PUNCHI and uses and distributes around the necks of likeminded people and wet cats.

In the tradition of creating physical product to enhance the musical experience, further opportunity for fans and followers to show some love and support for the free floating digital content on offer will follow with the opportunity to purchase items from his soon to be launched OUTTAKES category on the PUNCHI store: www.punchi.de. 

Forged in the fires of friendship and the emotional bond to our deepest musical moods, it’s little wonder the project has already found favour with and features contributions from the likes of EPMD, The Beatnuts & Greg Nice, B-Real of Cypress Hill and members of Underground Resistance in addition to his close colleagues and camp members.

To receive downloads and to catch up with the continually evolving OUTTAKES collection by periodical love letters, make sure you sign up for the newsletter at www.outtakes.co or mail to outtakes@cordlabuhn.com.

‘Glass Plains’ is the first single from Albert Salt’s upcoming EP. 
Featuring the immensely talented Alex Lahey and Ollie Whitehead on saxophone. 

Influenced by jazz of Herbie Hancock and the trip/hip-hop production of Massive Attack, Portishead, Radiohead. 

Written as a second person narrative, ‘Glass Plains’ portrays an internal conflict, exploring our tendency to premeditate and perform actions, before analysing them hypercritically.

The Ocean Party "Tell"

Patient Hands is the solo-project of Alex Stooshinoff, a composer and pop musician from the Canadian Prairies. 

“At Parting” is the opening track of his upcoming album entitled “Stoic”, which is about a several year long sickness and the warp and the weft of mystical experience that ran through it. 

The song concerns the feeling of having lost oneself, and awoken in the metaphorical dark. 

Stooshinoff currently lives in Montreal, where he studies philosophy and electroacoustics.

i don’t know myself, i don’t know myself
i don’t know myself today
i don’t know myself, i don’t know myself
i don’t know myself today

i’ve been waiting for so long
to open up a window
are you driving to new songs?
cause old ones haunt my stereo
cause old ones haunt my stereo

i keep on tellin’ her no
i didn’t need no pardon
for making you lonely stop
talkin to me, talkin to me
i need a new supplier
somebody take my hand tonight
somebody who won’t
say bye then hello
just for a night get higher
just for a night, a page in the fire

my telephone is aglow
another cruel reminder
lonely with someone new
driving with me, passenger seat
a criminal desire
somebody take my hand tonight
somebody who won’t
forget to let go 
she’s doing it for hire
we’ll write it down and set it on fire

i don’t know myself, i don’t know
i don’t know myself, i don’t know
i don’t know myself, i don’t know

i’ve been waiting for so long
to open up a window
are you driving to new songs?
cause old ones haunt my stereo
cause old ones haunt my stereo

i don’t know myself, i don’t know
i don’t know myself, i don’t know
i don’t know myself, i don’t know
i don’t know myself today

CA:RU is the solo project of Cardiff’s Ryan Edwards. 

Edwards lays out ambient, experimental, off kilter beats that have all the feels of the Ethereal. 

Distorted RnB influenced vocals and ominous drums resonate through dreamy synths that take the listner on a haunting journey of nostalgia. 

CA:RU’s first upcoming EP (11:11) takes influence from the rawness of nature with pulsating rhythms, amorphous textures and grounding vibes to create a dreamy atmosphere of oneness.

Vákoum is an American duo formed in New York, 2013, by multi-instrumentalists and producers Kelli Rudick and Natalia Padilla. 

Israeli/American composer Kelli Rudick can be heard on the drums, mbira, vocals, guitar, live looping, and synth, while Mexican composer Natalia Padilla, is featured on guitar, synths, live looping, sampling and vocals.  

By merging the analog and digital world, the two create an intricate environment for their moving arrangements. Their sound is a dive into a warm sonic pool, meeting at that elusive, delicate intersection of complexity and raw, earnest heart.

Vàkoum - Still Ready

Twin Studies started out as the solo bedroom recording project of Jay Stanley in late 2012. 

The project grew to a four piece in 2013 after Stanley enlisted the help of other local musicians and friends to complete a live lineup, and released their debut EP, Precious Places, the following year. 

In 2015 the band released two songs, “Attic Room” and “Space Girl.”

After a complete change of musicians except for Stanley in 2016, Twin Studies is now releasing a new record. 

The band is specifically chasing much more involved guitar melodies while still maintaining a wall of sound and a driving rhythm. 

"Years and Years" is the best representation of the rest of the songs on the release since it combines and distills elements of all of them – floating pop riffs, droning guitars, and lush synths.

Bridal Shower formed in late 2015.

The band have been seen performing consistently round the UK, sharing bills with bands such as Lvl Up, Big Business, Young Legionnaire, Slowcoaches and Qui.

Put Your Gloves On

Bridal Shower - Put Your Gloves On

Based in Provo (Utah), Goldmyth is a virtuosic singer-songwriter making electro-pop music in an unusual way: with the harp.  

Indeed, Goldmyth is a classically trained harpist who decided to use the instrument to experiment with a variety of music styles. 

“One day, I realized I could merge my two passions and write songs for the harp” she shares.  “I’d lock myself in the practice room in the school of music and write songs.  Then, I started using a looping pedal to add vocal layers.”

Influenced by artists like Joni Mitchell, James Black and, most notably, Sufjan Stevens,  Goldmyth seamlessly blends glimmering harp chords with weighty synths and springy percussion.

Happy Couple are a 3 piece who have carried on from their previous and late band, Lunar Quiet.

Based in Brighton, they began to work on new material in late January 2017. 'Mass Policy' was the first song they wrote as a new band, so it seemed fitting to release as an introduction.

Fun Ethereal - I'll Try Anything Once

Since the birth of the label in 1997, FatCat has always had a solid engagement with material sent to us as demos. Where numerous labels will throw demos straight into the trash unopened, at FatCat we've always made an effort to listen and reply to every demo received. Numerous FatCat artists have been picked up having been discovered in this way (including Frightened Rabbit, The Twilight Sad, David Karsten Daniels, Welcome, Odonis Odonis, Get Back Guinozzi!, Silje Nes, Ensemble, Xinlisupreme, Songs Of Green Pheasant, Janek Schaefer - to name just a few), and it has always been really exciting to unexpectedly discover something great in this way. Just as when we started, this philosophy of keeping an ear to the ground and attempting to support good new creativity remains at the core of what we do.

With rapid changes in technology of recent years, the majority of demos are now sent to us electronically, but we are still happy to receive material through the post as CDs (please mark as 'demo submission' and mail FatCat Records, PO Box 3400, Brighton, BN1 4WG). Whilst we are still receiving a high quantity of demos, with our ever-busy release schedule and ongoing commitments to an expanding roster of signed artists, FatCat are now finding fewer opportunities to physically release material from new artists. As an antidote to this, back in 2004, we began using our website to showcase the best of the demos we were receiving. Alongside a DIY microsite built specifically to help people who wanted to release their own music, we hosted the our favourite demos online, with artwork and MP3s available for free download. In 2010 we began to use the more immediate freedom of SoundCloud as a platform - setting up a dropbox for people to submit tracks to and a player on the front of our site to showcase the best demo submissions. 

In February 2012, the new and improved FatCat demo site you are now using was launched, again using SoundCloud as the engine to drive the site. We have kept all of the the original demo artists on the new site - grouping them in collections archived by year. There is a lot of really great material stored away here, so please do spend some time looking around. 

The choices of who we have asked to join this archive are highly selective, and we make no apologies for this. These are tracks we consider to be really good quality material, tracks that we are happy to help promote and to have associated with FatCat. If you like what you hear here, then please do download the tracks and share this music with your friends.
