About Me


Akoustik Anarkhy (aA) is a party night & record label from Manchester. Started 30th October 1999 for the simple virtues of having a laugh & playing whatever music you wanted to at generally maximum volume. Over the last 8 years aA has hosted parties in all sorts of back street grotto’s & nightspots from Manchester to London, Brighton, Paris, Dublin & beyond.
These days we alternate between Manchester residencies at the infamous Gardens Hotel, Rampant Lion, Star & Garter, Kings Arms & The Windmill in Brixton. If you come by one of our parties then you’re in for a good time with ace music, dancing & lots of laughs.
Akoustik Anarkhy Recordings our label is a burgeoning litter of musical talents. Our first releases were on cdr in 2001. In 2002 we released our first Vinyl 7” Single from Loose Canon & since then have released vinyl, cd & download singles by Autokat, Loose Canon, Soft Priest, Sam and Me, its a buffalo, The Loungs, Islands Lost at Sea & Thomas Truax.
Along the way there have been a couple of ace compilation albums – Whores On The Doors & Class aA: Beyond Entertainment - featuring some of the best artists to play aA with exclusive tracks from Nine Black Alps, The Longcut, Harrisons & The Zans.
2007 has been the busiest year yet for Akoustik Anarkhy Recordings. We released our first artist album - the mega ‘Late Night Shopping’ by Autokat followed in May by 'We Are The Champ' the marvellous pop debut from The Loungs. This autumn we have Neil Burrell's debut LP 'White Devil's Day Is Almost Over' to look forward to. Here’s a list of our past & upcoming releases in 2007 all of which you can by from the aA Shop:
