Soft Metals - Psychic Driving (Newclear Waves Remix) (digital-only)
In July 2011, Soft Metals released their debut self-titled album on Captured Tracks to critical acclaim. Soft Metals is diverse record of forward-facing synth pop that still pays homage to a wide range of past influences, and so garnered the attention of a wide range of tastes.
This 12" gathers 5 remixes (8 with the digital download) that represent an even further reach of those tastes, from a host of friends and contemporaries: Copy, Xander Harris, VALIS, Yard, Casa del Mirto, The Soulless Party, Newclear Waves, and The Drum.
While these tracks are aimed squarely at the dance floor, their spirit reverberates even further, with a large part of the proceeds going directly to Doctors Without Borders, an organization of doctors & nurses that provide urgent care to victims of disaster & war.
Soft Metals - The Remixes, available in early May on Sweating Tapes limited edition vinyl, and through various digital outlets.

Rome On Air: Mannequin Records (SV) mixtape
"Mannequin Records is really pleased to join Satellite Voices with a pure minimal electronics mixtape, which is moving back and forth its time lancets from mid 70s to nowadays, exploring various territories and formats (tapes, 7'', vinyls). The opening is offered by Fondation, a French obscure band from 1980, mixed with Mort Gartson's Ataraxia 1975 project, described by the author itself as 'Electronic Musical Impressions of the Occult'. Being December, it was natural to move in the Scandinavian 'cold wave' 80s zone, with Twice A Man, Lister, Det Gylne Triangel and Danton's Voice killer track "I Hear The Bells", recently reissued by our lovely Veronica from Minimal Wave. On the other side, Ice The Falling Rain, with their b-side "Illusions", Section 25, New Order, The Fallout Club and Broken Tables are filling the 80s UK Synth Wave pack.

Warm Dark Pocket – Warm Dark Pocket 12'' EP 1986
One of the rarest US wave releases by the duo from Nashville, Tennessee. Great intimate echoey male and female vox with uptempo rhythms and cold backgrounded guitars and choral synth textures. Another of the great obscuro DIY Tennesse synth/wave bands including Factual, Calculated X et al, Nashville truly had a nice scene in the middle part of the decade.
I think Crispy Nuggets already posted it but well, it's a new addition in my vinyls collection i want to share w/you all :-)
Vocals, Guitar, Synthesizer – Robb Earls
