Launch Night

We're having a special launch night for the record label at The Deaf Institute on 29th August... Bank Holiday Sunday! All of the bands on the label will play except for Colleen Green because she lives in America. Our friends from Comfortable On A Tightrope and the Pigeon Post blog will be DJing and I'm hoping for the greatest ever merch table.

We're not really gonna have a running order for bands...I guess you just have to get down early

You can attend on Facebook here

Mazes & Brown Brogues played in Manchester on Saturday with our buddies Waiters and Boy or Bison. Folly Of Youth was nice enough to document the show and post a couple of songs up on YouTube.

Feel free to download it, put it on your blog or send it to a boy/girl you like...

Stuff & Junk

Tonight is the last time I'll be DJing at The Deaf Institute for the foreseeable future. It saddens me, but the night continues! Watch this space for guest DJ's who will be far better than me. Tonight I'll be giving away Colleen Green tapes and Mazes/Spectrals vinyl. Awesome

Here's a couple of reviews for the Mazes single... Platform & Pigeon Post

Summer Jamz

Our first releases are available for pre-order and should be shipped out by the end of the month...hopefully. First up is the third single by Mazes, closely followed by a tape album from Colleen Green. I've written about both on the blog, so I'm not going to bore you with how psyched I am.

Go here to listen to the Mazes songs. they're gonna be up on MySpace for a week - www.myspace.com/mazesmazesmazes

You can listen the Colleen at - http://www.myspace.com/c0lleen1

Both the releases can be ordered from - http://sufferingjukebox.bigcartel.com/

Bank Holiday

A whole host of Suffering Jukebox activity this bank holiday... It's the regular Suffering Jukebox night at The Deaf Institute tonight, all the way through 2am. On Saturday, Colleen plays the Silverlake Lounge in LA at a night called Space Boners. Mazes play Eurocultured Festival in Manchester and DJ at 'Spring Break' in the evening. On Tuesday, Milk Maid play White Heat in London with Crocodiles and then Mazes play with Thee Oh Sees at The Deaf Institute.

Good times likely, although everything's slightly tainted by the fact we're not all joining Colleen at Space Boners

Mazes 7"

I just sent off our first release, a seven by my band Mazes. The sleeve is by James Hines from Sex Is Disgusting...totally next level stuff. In the meantime...here's a zip of our first single that was out on Sex Is Disgusting. It's sold out now

Tree Fort Tape

Matt Benn from Spectrals, Twisted and Hookworms has started his own label and this is the first fruit of his generous loins. The tape seems to have a slant on it; bands from northern britain. Matt who's put this together has taste that's second to none and these are all bands that'll be troubling hipster blogs in the months to come. Probably. Anyway, it comes with a 20 page zine and you get a free download code when you buy it... It's £4.50... Probably more than you losers get paid an hour, but still worthy of a 'bargain' tag. And if that hasn't convinced you, I did a cover of 'Don't Worry Baby' by The Beach Boys
