Bamodi – Smell Heaven – 2nd October 2012
Cat #: 118TZM
Bamodi’s 19‐track second LP Smell Heaven (tenzenmen) is just under half an hour of throat‐banging punk rock that flirts occasionally with power violence, pop and greyhound racing. There are some slow songs, fast songs, and an unlikely cover version of Beat Happening’s Ponytail.
Recorded by Wil Hooper and Matt Bairstow at Stable Sound. Mastered at Chicago Mastering Services.

Dear Eloise – Beauty in Strangers – 15th July 2012
Cat #: 099TZM
Dear Eloise is the side project of P.K.14 frontman Yang Haisong together with his wife Sun Xia.
Connoisseurs of DIY and lo-fi bedroom recordings the pair create beautiful melodies amongst layers of distortion. Playing all the parts themselves while recording and editing in their home studio they experiment with song structures and recording techniques their songs are interesting and layered while still maintaining a simple innocence.
Even though they do not perform live and have released their recordings rather inconspicuously, Dear Eloise has still managed to gain a loyal following in the Chinese scene.
