One of the best Uk debuts in 99, from ex members of EAST VILLAGE and DOLLY MIXTURE. Our edition includes an extra track, and a slightly different sleeve design.

After the sad split of LE MANS, his lead guitarist and composer reappeared with a completely instrumental album, full of surprises and unexpected turns. This record is a melting pot of styles, as it's influenced by jazz, New Orleans music, hip hop, reggae... to obtain something new and original. A must.

Second album of this all-girl Spanish band which managed a lot of success in Spain with their debut. This album is produced by Ian Catt, of ST ETIENNE, SHAMPOO, TREMBLING BLUE STARS fame. Charming upbeat pop songs of the first order, all catchy choruses and gentle guitars.

Second album of this Spanish fivesome, with excellent classic pop songs enhanced by lavish string and horn arrangements. Lyrics in Spanish full of irony and criticism, wonderful vocal harmonies and guitar pop anthems perfectly crafted.

Third album by ex-FIELD MICE Bob Wratten most personal project. This time the songs are enriched by a multilayered production. Melancholy and a sense of nostalgia and regret throughout the whole album, though you can also find perfect pop gems like 'Sad eyes'. 

Swansong of this Madrid trio. As usual, they come with a magnificent collection of classic songs, excelently crafted and arranged, with an eye on Californian heroes like THE BYRDS but also close to contemporaries like LAMBCHOP o TINDERSTICKS. Timeless melodies.

A new Lio? A 21st century France Gall? This girl from Paris is far more than that: she manages to bring back the charm of the best sixties French pop female acts without sounding retro, thanks to a very fine collection of timeless pop songs. 

Second album by the riskiest band in the current UK scene. They play with a combination of repetitive, hypnotic structures with polyedric rhythms, noisy violas and some hints of pop sensitiveness.

Nick Currie, better known by the aka of MOMUS, surprises us with his most singular album: two cds full of 'pop portraits' of fans, friends and even pop stars like Cornelius!!! A brilliant idea and a wonderful result: as usual, tons of savoir-faire, top class humour and genuine talent. Don't miss it. This edition features a superb, exclusive new design.

From the ashes of TALULAH GOSH and HEAVENLY this Oxford quintet treats us with a collection of pop gems, full of delightful mellodies, soft guitars and imaginative arrangements. Not to mention Amelia Fletcher's vocals, one of the most admired females popsters all over the indie world. This Spanish edition includes an eight-page booklet with lyrics and band pics.

New demonstrations of madness, extravagance, humour and personality by this talented Madrid band. This is their fifth album, including a wide assortment of styles (pop, punk, rock, ska) always treated in a very special way, in their very own way. Wonderful blue vinyl, by the way. It includes their hit 'Mi vida va bien'.

In their third album this Spanish band keeps on basing their sound on shattering, distorted guitars and catchy, cheeky refrains, without overlooking small details and arrangements -piano, flute, organ-. They´ve been described as one of the best Spanish live acts, and with this album they´ve managed to make a record up to that live reputation.

Tito Pintado (PENELOPE TRIP, TELEFILME) treats us with six songs in which pop, electronics and sheer noise blend to give shape to a truly singular album. From experimental ambient to seventies disco, from lo-fi, toy dub to electronic noise pop, everything can happen in the world of ANTI.
