Hi you all - hope you're doing great. It's been quiet here for quite some time, and as is for now, there is no plans for future releases, but we hope we'll be back at some point.
But, we just got a handful of records from the Greek “Old Bad Habits” label. Not in European distribution.
�
‘The Five Year Plan’ was formed in April 1984 in Bristol. They toured with The Housemartins, The Nightingales, The Jazz Butcher and The Weather Prophets.
An album, until now never recorded. The band recorded demos back in the mid-80’s and planned to use Stephen Street as their favorite producer at the time. However, he was not available, and the job done by the new guy in charge was not satisfactory. This project was never recorded until now, nearly 40 years later. �The band was categorized under the c86 monkier, but their influences were more like Josepf K, Velvet Underground, etc.
The Five-Year Plan ’1985’ (2024) 3 copies

Another British band, ‘Arrest! Charlie Tipper/The Charlie Tipper Rebellion’ also from Bristol.
It’s beyond us that this band remains a secret to the level it is. All records are pressed between 150 and 200 copies and numbered as such.
The music is a sprawling affair, charming, psychedelic, melodic, repetitive again in the tradition of The Velvets, but there’s also nods to Yo La Tengo, Tindersticks, etc. in the music.
Arrest! Charlie Tipper ‘Red’ (2020) 3 copies
Arrest! Charlie Tipper, ‘Adventures in Wonderland’ (2022), 2LP, 4 copies
The Charlie Tipper Rebellion ‘Second Time Around’ (2024) 2024, 4 copies
