Abst 01 – LEGENDARY PINK DOTS “The Seismic Bleats Of Quantum Sheep” LP
“The secret album from The Pink Dots created in the Spring of 2015, and the sister release to “Five Days”. It’s due out on vinyl through the Spanish Abstrakce label in February 2016. Extremely Kaleidoscopic and as far out as the Dots may have gone in their history” Edward Ka-Spel
“The strongest Legendary Pink Dots album of 2015 snuck in just under the wire as a digital release, with a delayed vinyl version expected in a few months from new Spanish label Abstrakce. Intended as a “secret” sister album to the earlier Five Days, Quantum Bleats sounds a lot more like the work of an actual band, though it is no less fragmented and hallucinatory. Everything feels a lot more deliberate, melodic, fully formed, and evocative this time around: there are a number of beautifully orchestrated passages, snatches of playful cabaret, and muscular bass lines lurking amidst all of the usual free-form psychedelic sprawl. While it probably focuses a bit too much on the ambiguous no-man’s land between “song” and “abstract experimentation” to rank among the Dots’ best work, it is nevertheless quite clear that most of Edward Ka-Spel’s more inspired recent ideas found their way here.” Brainwashed Review

“Cintas Chromo’s Audio Encyclopedia Of Weird Spain”
“Your average modern American might come up with Pablo Picasso or trendy tapas restaurants if pressed for examples of cool stuff from Spain, but the underground music scene going down from Valencia to Barcelona right now is among the most vibrant in the world. Wild synth zoners, updates to early industrial soundscapes, and impactful harsh noise are all well represented in the catalogs of killer labels like Cønjuntø Vacíø, Verlag System, and Atrocious Symphonies.
But if you’re just getting into this scene, there is no better introduction than the “Enciclopedia Chromo” series from new cassette label Cintas Chromo. Like succinct audio-encyclopedia entries, this series of mostly C20 tapes gives international listeners a taste of the range of deep jams coming from contemporary Spain, the perfect starting point for figuring out which artists you want to dig into some more. Already up to five “entries” in just a few months, this series is off to a fine start, with more excellent releases in the works. Featuring black & white cover designs with matching spines, these will eventually make for an attractive-looking travelogue series that’ll be easy to locate for quick reference on your shelves, too” ….
