Anthony Childs I'm glad so many people have this but completely confused why none of their other releases have even close to half as many supporters! The vinyl version is of course split in two and though releases like this are more suitable for CD, CS, or digital due to the continuous play aspect, I'm glad a label felt it worthwhile to put it on vinyl. Now it's just hopefully a matter of short time before the listeners of this release more fully support their other tremendous (and prolific) output.

Mister Meows Ambient pulses that rise & fall over forty-six wonderful minutes, with frizzled bits of... newscasts? at the end. A sonic refuge from Trump & Brexit & all the rest.

about

We're finally ready to unveil our latest sub-label in the shape of ambient, drone and experimental electronics offshoot Lobster Sleep Sequence.

After label head Jimmy Asquith came across Thet Liturgiske Owäsendet's immense ambient epic 'Catalina' on Soundcloud, it soon became a staple cure to a bout of recent prolonged sleeplessness and mild insomnia that he'd been unable to shake via any other means.

The decision to press on vinyl wasn't a light one - sitting at 46 minutes, Catalina had to be chopped and faded into two parts to make it remotely curable for vinyl - and having Rashad Becker at the helm of the mastering truly brought out the the textures, facets and finer details of this epic masterpiece.

It's a slow burning showcase of slowly evolving sonic substances and memories; a dense fog on a barren land steadily revealing the artefacts and objects hidden behind rocks and beneath the shadows; a static art piece hanging for months in a gallery rarely visited, allowed to decay into a beautiful immersive, solitary existence.

This release is mastered and cut by Rashad Becker in two parts, pressed onto heavy 180g wax with an LSS logo hand-stamped centre, encased in a black matte silver screen-printed sleeve, including a B&W matte A6 postcard insert.
