Here's a translation: There are new releases. Gregory Fleckner looks at jazz in a new way (?) and the new Clatterbox is a very minimal, electronic, hiphop platter. Like a blend of Sakamot and Warren G, truly crazy, wonderful, and tough. A LP and a 12" will come very soon. Everybody thinks that one always has to do a 2x12", but we try to hang on to our childhood and long for the return of the good old LP format. A record that you don't have to constantly turn over. We're also doing a compilation with a somewhat unusual concept. Instead of simply being filled with tracks from A-sides, it contains all the little strange tracks that you ignore at first. Kirk De Giorgio is doing a 2x12" for us and Niel Trix, who you D'n'B fans know as FDB, is doing a double EP with Gregory Fleckner. The wildest, craziest fusion of jazz and D'n'B anyone's ever heard before. Complete nonsense. Patrick Pulsinger will record something for us after that, and a guy from Aux 88, Keith Tucker, is doing a hiphop funk electro LP for us. All this year. All already planned. All a little scary. ...hope this helps!...
