The Space Lady began her odyssey on the streets of San Francisco in the late 70s, playing an accordion and dressed flamboyantly, transmitting messages of peace and harmony. Following the theft of her accordion, The Space Lady invested in a then-new Casio keyboard, birthing an otherworldly new persona that has captured the imaginations of the underground and its lead exponents ever since.

The legend of The Space Lady has continued to grow in the 21st century. Originally featured on the landmark 'outsider' compilation "Songs In The Key Of Z," then on mixes by Erol Alkan and John Maus, this music has transcended genre, style and fashion, opening up hearts and minds along the way. 
In the mid 90s The Space Lady packed away her Casio synth and silenced her distinctive voice, retiring from the streets of San Francisco. Now, more than 30 years after her initial forays on Haight Ashbury, she has surfaced with the first ever official release of her timeless, startling music and, even more remarkably, has re-started her live career. Now in Colorado, The Space Lady continues to spread her message of peace, harmony and love.

Of her early street sets, only one recording was made, self-released originally on cassette and then transferred to a home-made CD. "The Best Of The Space Lady"(LSSN021) features the best of these recordings pressed on vinyl for the first time and features archival photographs and liner notes from The Space Lady herself. Following the release of this archive, The Space Lady will be issuing new material and travelling the world to present her message outside the United States for the first time.

'Seizure' is the lead track taken from AUTOBAHN's debut 3-track 12" EP, released on 11th November. &#13;
&#13;
PRESS RELEASE&#13;
On 11th November, Leeds-based five-piece AUTOBAHN announce themselves to the world with their unapologetically sinister and aggressive self-titled debut EP. A record for, and of, the night, AUTOBAHN conjure the dystopian nightmare world of 80s post-punk across three unrelenting tracks. Consider them Leeds’ very own Lost Boys, cloaked in feedback, showing their teeth. Despite forming in February 2013, and playing their first gig just months ago, they appear eerily fully formed.&#13;
&#13;
The group - a bunch of unknowns - have notched up word-of-mouth acclaim for their handful of visceral live shows, appearing on stages with the likes of Merchandise and Eagulls. While those bands are appropriate touchstones for those new to AUTOBAHN, if you look closer you’ll notice in their velvet jackets and puffed shirts a stargazing glamour at odds with their peers.&#13;
&#13;
On the surface, AUTOBAHN are a classic modern day punk band. But dig a little deeper and there’s a colourful underbelly to their sonic ambitions, vivid like a new bruise. Their name’s a reference to Kraftwerk, hinting at a European intensity, while tracks like the scabrous ‘Lost Tongue’, are transgressive in the same way as early Public Image Limited. What’s more, there’s real catharsis at the heart of these songs: the opening track, 'Seizure', is about having a small fit in Brighton., while all the lyrics point to a very millennial sense of helplessness. AUTOBAHN 1. , then, is a bacchanalian trawl through the psyche, kind of unhinged, and staring right through you.&#13;
&#13;
&#13;
They have announced a UK tour with dates supporting Girls Names and the aforementioned Eagulls, as well as a special EP launch show at Brudenell Social Club, Leeds. Dates are as follows:&#13;
&#13;
24 October - Sheffield, Bungalows and Bears w/Girls Names&#13;
29 October - Leeds, Brudenell Social Club w/Girls Names&#13;
02 November - Brighton, Green Door Store w/Girls Names&#13;
16 November - Leeds, Brudenell Social Club **EP LAUNCH**&#13;
05 December - London, Sebright Arms w/Eagulls&#13;
06 December - Cardiff, Moon Club w/Eagulls&#13;

AUTOBAHN - Seizure

disappears 'halcyon days'

Kaitlyn's solo debut Euclid (primarily written on a Buchla Music Easel synthesizer) was inspired by her love of mbira music, early electronic music pioneers like Laurie Spiegel, Oskar Sala, and Terry Riley, and euclidean geometry. Each of the first six songs on Euclid were initially structured using euclidean geometry, an idea which Smith explored while attending a class at the San Francisco Conservatory. As Smith explains, "We each chose a 3D shape and assigned our own guidelines to the different components that make up the shape. For example each point of the shape represents a different time signature, each line between the points represents a pitch, each shape within the closed lines represents a scale, etc. And then you play the shape." Despite their heady geometric origins, the songs have a playfulness and warmth that makes them inviting and memorable. In addition to the buoyant grooves of Smith's synthesizers, some of the songs feature wordless vocals, which energize the otherworldly songs, while grounding them with Smith's earthly presence.

She slows things down for the second half of the record, which features a collection of twelve short pieces, Labyrinths I-XII. Originally composed as new soundtracks to old silent films she found online, Smith says the tranquil Labyrinth pieces are "intended to feel like one is walking through a holographic labyrinth and encountering different experiences such as hang gliding, viewing microbes under a microscope, ice fishing in Alaska, and watching glaciers collapse." Despite their brevity, most of these songs feel like mini odysseys, effortlessly casting a cinematic hue on the the listener's world.

Throughout Euclid Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith consistently delivers sonic puzzles draped in a warm Pacific mist. At times these songs feel so alive — like the musical analog to roots growing deeper and stronger, leaves on branches bending towards the light, or the sun peeking over the horizon, briefly igniting the air with a primordial swirl of warm and cool colors.

Escape-ism "Almost No One (Can Have My Love)"

Berlin based post-punks The Underground Youth have been Fuzz Club favourites since before the label was even born. During a tour in support of their eighth LP ‘What Kind Of Dystopian Hellhole Is This?’ Fuzz Club brought Craig Dyer and co. to Lovebuzz Studio in London to be the next addition to our Fuzz Club Sessions series. Seeing as we’ve spent the last few years releasing or reissuing their entire back-catalogue, we figured it was about to time to drag them in for a session
As with all Fuzz Club Sessions, the LP was recorded live in one take and straight to 2” tape, using only the finest analogue equipment and see’s their beautifully haunting psychedelic post-punk sound even more raw and impassioned than before.

Desire

Was Bruch auch anfasst, hat meist was smart Mitreißendes und wie genau er es anstellt mit diesen wenigen Mitteln den Kern-Essenzen eines soliden Popsongs nachzuspüren, fragt man sich beim Hören dann oft schon wieder auch nicht mehr, weil man bereits zu sehr im Songsog und dem dabei meist von seiner Stimme getragenen und angenehmen Gefühl zeitloser Illusion von Geborgenheit. Hier zweimal mehr in und mit wunderschönem Artwork im 7"-Format: Einmal das trocken poppige "Kohlhaas", basierend auf dem gleichnamigen, gerechtigkeitsüchtigen Protagonisten der Kleist-Novelle "Michael Kohlhaas" und die connaiseurhafte Bergung der glänzenden Perle "I  surrender" vom, des nur zum Zeitpunkt seines Erscheinens komplett missverstandenen zweiten Albums "Cast of Thousands" der unwiderstehlichen 70ies Punks The Adverts. - Christian Egger
