After more than a year in the works, we are pleased to announce our debut VA available through digital streaming and on vinyl.

Mélange is a new community and online platform for young emerging artists based between Europe and Australasia. The first of the label’s VA compilation album spans corners of electronic and world music and weaves between classical/ambient sounds and UKG, Jungle & Disco. It’s a commitment to multi-genre discographies and the need for more established career paths for young, gifted artists.

With early support on the vinyl from Four Tet and Haai, our goal is to help share and further establish European and Oceanic sounds with music lovers everywhere.

Oh, I'll never see that day that I always dreamt and longed for

Sometimes I think I really just can't forgive and overcome resentment 

It burns the only kindness that remained

And while we're all familiar 
The undertone is eating my soul alive
But now that I'm older
I try to feel pity and understand:
Oh, I'll never see that day that I always dreamt and longed for
Oh yeah, will the anger cease when we're old if we make it that far?

If I could see the reason you're sad I'd only wanna come and help you
but it don't work out that way, it never did

Gnar Tapes and Burger Records have teamed up once again to offer up another heavenly slice of delicious weirdo pop! This time we are pleased to offer you a Japanese duo so uniquely weird and cute that you won't know what to do with yourself. Combining a full palette of strange and tasty pop, rock, psych, and twee elements with the bizarre and entrancing accent of singer / multi-instrumentalist Kaznary Mutoh, The Boys Age of Saitama, Japan are truly something unlike anything we've heard before. "Fake Gold" is a full, full, full length album; a long player with as varied of sounds as you'd find anywhere. Think Magnetic Fields meets The Pixies meets Beat Happening. Then think of Japan and the two Japanese boys responsible for the strangely catchy and hauntingly beautiful music of The Boys Age. Keep your Summer wild.
