Twelve-inch Vinyl (20min each side) Housed in a manilla die cut hand screen printed sleeve 30x page booklet featuring essay by Jez Winship along with artist research notes and illustrations Limited to 250 Ah, it doesn’t get more esoterically moving than this collection of responses to English fairy lore, courtesy of one of our favourite labels, Folklore Tapes. Plenty of familiar names if you’re even cursorily interested in this rich, slanted scene that’s grown up around labels like Folklore Tapes, Finders Keepers, Second Language, the outer limits of the Ghost Box stable… The styles on show here range from lysergically inverted a capella folk traditionals to synth workouts, sound design with overlayed poetry of the North East (well, we hear a Yorkshire accent in there), disembodied piano chiming in the distance, goth-tinged, creepy improvisation, lush Broadcast-ish deconstructed cinematic pop music… the fact that Folklore Tapes and its head curator David Chatton Baker can stitch everything together with a really cohesive thread weaving through the styles is testament to the label’s aesthetic unity.
