A tiny independent not-for-profit record label in the UK. Music deserving of wider attention. Reissued for the first time on vinyl in small batches. With love. Posts by Simon.

£450,000 one-bed studio apartment. No chain. Suit first time buyers. Surrey/London fringes. Needs some modernisation.

My current view… if you’re just visiting the loo, give me a wave (or say hello as you pass).

Arrived ahead of The Felt Tips gig with The Understudies in support tonight.

Little goodie bag for tomorrow’s The Felt Tips gig. A little Unspun Heroes freebie.

Caught Kaspar mid-sneeze. Still the funniest pic I have of him.

Went to @lookingforthemagic.bsky.social and found some.

It may be Hallowe’en, but this emo-era album isn’t something to be scared of. Plus, the post contains a video for one of 2024’s darn fine songs you may not have heard.

I did get this amazing LP in the post yesterday, so I can finally complete my @pollypaulusma.bsky.social vinyl collection. And she’s on a tour including some dates with Kris Drever in November. You should find a place to go see her: www.pollypaulusma.com/tour/

No vinyl bought. Picked up a book instead as it’s #BookshopDay and, well, I also love books.

Hey @dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social, I spotted one of those portals on a snap of the Oxford Canal over on the terrible picture-sharing website. Thought you’d like it.

As with every @needlemythology.bsky.social release, this one does not disappoint. Beautifully put together and the quality of the music, well, that was never in doubt.

I particularly love the train ticket hype sticker design.

Badges have arrived. Shiny and hard to photograph, but I have a box of them ready for the gig. They look better IRL.

A big thanks to @graemealdy.bsky.social who kindly sent me these two releases by Hurrah! in the post. Arrived yesterday but I’ve not been feeling very well so as yet they are Unspun, which I hope to rectify tomorrow. For now, back to bed.

Oh, this is what I came away with. I had no intention of buying records today, but I had to meet with @heykidsshop.bsky.social to give him his promo copy of The Felt Tips as a thanks for designing the special insert sculpture, and we met at a record shop.

Went to a lovely new record store in #Brighton that has more of a queer POV than your average, although still stocks your classic albums. Just chilled and friendly, thanks to Rashid the owner. I added @goldenshoulders.bsky.social to his alternative ‘albums you should own’ list.

Technology. Useful. Apparently.

Picked this up on my travels. The muddy production that caused a kerfuffle between the band and a certain famous Detroit musician isn’t as bad on vinyl as it seemed on CD. Dirty garage rock kinda suits it. #nowplaying

Popped into @backtrax.bsky.social on my way to Unspun HQ from Scotland (still driving) and it was ace. Loads of great records in every genre. Found a gem of a promo I didn’t know existed. Very happy. Thanks Helen!

Sunshine in Leith. Does this mean I need to walk 500 miles?

Just at Tebay Services for some lunch. Could be nicer weather (proverbial cats and dogs and stair rods).

Did stop briefly in Preston at this rather splendid shop, @actionrecords.bsky.social Lovely people. Fantastic selection of new and second hand. Even had a James Varda for sale: no. 009.
