About Me


I am a record label. I have a lot of very interesting artists, down here under my desk in a box. It is a very nice box. Unfortunately I am only 1cm tall, which is not very big by any stretch of the imagination. Oh, well.... But seriously. There's a lot of nondescript music out there, and a lot of mildly-skilled people making it. Radiant Future attempts to bring you some skilled work. Don't like it? That's OK, we will show you the door. It's a fine door and well worth looking at. Don't just take our word for it: here's what the All Music Guide says...
All Music Guide
The case for a Martin Gordon box set is unimpeachable. Thirty years in the trenches have seen him incite, inspire and generally inveigle any number of bands to some degree of prominence or another, beginning with Sparks and rumbling unimpeachably on from there. An anthology rounding up all those activities, from Jet to the Blue Meanies, and onto his 90s production work, would truly be a sight to behold.
But you’ll have to keep looking for a while longer. For though this is indeed a Martin Gordon box set, and though it is as unimpeachably wonderful as the man’s pedigree demands, nothing here predates his solo re-emergence in 2003, and nothing will be new to anyone who’s been paying attention since then. Which could be called a crying shame, but it isn’t, because any release that reminds the world of the brilliance of Gordon’s first three 21st century solo albums can only be applauded.
Handsomely wrapped within a box set that could have fallen off the back of a lorry full of prog rock artworks, The Mammal Trilogy rounds up the albums The Baboon In The Basement, The Joy Of More Hogwash and God’s On His Lunchbreak. There are no bonus tracks – for those, you need seek out the sold-separately How Am I Doing So Far compilation. But the 41 tracks herein nevertheless represent the rebirth of foot-tapping, fast-punning, power-popping family entertainment at its lascivious best, and the only bad news is, it’s such a limited edition (500 copies worldwide) that there really may not be enough to go round.
