Strap the Button
Strap the Button trawl the margins of prog, kraut and experimental music in general to create exploratory, psychedelic music of continual wonderment.

The Good Anna
Free improv duo making quite a name for themselves. They utilise guitar, sax, electronics, zither, drums, knives, forks and all kinds of homemade instruments. Good, clean, wholesome fun. Two live CD-Rs available now.
The Good Anna Myspace
The Butterfly
Bombastic, subversive and unashamedly huge sounding songs that would fill stadiums in a universe where irony has been reclaimed from the dumb and good triumphs over evil. They say they're "too heavy for indie kids and were way too weird and strange for the metal crowd". Good. We hate indie kids and metal crowds. Free mini-album out now!

el heath
Ambient loop based music made with Martenot, guitar, bass, synths, piano and voice. Like Basinski doing the Blade Runner soundtrack!

...for those that shall not speak
Deconstructed post-rock (post-post-rock?) from The Exploits of Elaine member. Choirs of guitars droning, chiming, being cut up. Think late Tarentel/Stafraenn Hakon. p

Influences: Gringo Records & DamnYou!, Vacuous Pop, Constellation Records, Akira, Don't Piss On The Fish, Do Or Die, Ejector Seat, Organart and the millions of other people who do whatever they can to promote music they love, as opposed to music that they think will sell their magazines/fill their venues/sell their shitty lager.
Sounds Like: Nebulous wifts, cataclysmic shreaks, hardcore beats and tumultuous towers of feedback; all coated in sugar and spice and all things nice.
Record Label: Well spotted.
Type of Label: Major
