Fluid Radio will be broadcasting a mix made by me on Saturday November 14th. It features a bunch of great music from Dead Pilot releases as well as some from my favourite non Dead Pilot artists! After it’s been broadcast, I’ll upload it for download.
The remixes for the bonus disc for the re-release of Ekca Liena’s “Slow Music…” have now been confirmed and are as follows:

And lastly, the first every Dead Pilot gig is taking place in Aylesbury on Saturday December 12th with Message to Bears, Winter in Montreal, Timothy C. Holehouse and Plurals. Hopefully this will be the first of many. More info here and here. If you are interested in coming and have no idea where Aylesbury is, please do get in touch and I’ll help you out.
I think that’s just about everything. As I said, I’m taking a break from releases for a month or so, but expect to see something special soon.

With “An Avalanche of Swollen Tongues” still fresh in our ears, Stray Ghost’s Anthony Saggers releases another amazing set of tracks, this time on Australian label Hidden Shoal. Entitled “Each Paradise Is A Lost Paradise”, it is 3 tracks of absorbing melodic ambiance that chime and float along beautifully.
Download only I’m afraid, but you can’t have everything 
Give it a whirl here.
Textura have posted a great article showcasing some fantastic labels. Read it over here!
