[[ YOUR FAVORITE HORSE limited 7" ]][[ SKY18 ]]
the first installment of our limited 7" series will be off for pressing in
mere weeks. your favorite horse is none other than chris jeely (accelera
deck), changing pace and creating heart-breaking acoustic/vocal works.
think of an acoustic home-recorded slowdive adding some mississippi delta
blues influences, under some stylish glitchy electronics.
[[ OBSERVATORY ]][[ MP3 SUB-LABEL ]]
some of you may also notice a new MP3EP from SATELLTE GROOVES (OS5) now
available from our sister label, observatory. we will be uploading THE

our small, but growing IRC community. if you'd like to come and chat with
many of the people involved with skylab and many others, you're welcome, we
love new faces. er, screennames.
[[ FUTURE ]][][ LANDING ]
the future of skylab operations is so far looking insane, like you could
expect any less from us. for the rest of 2002, look out for the PHASMID
2xCD, HEADPHONE SCIENCE "consider the problems" CD, YOUR FAVORITE HORSE
limited 7", and ANORAK / SATELLITE GROOVES split 7". all coming out before
the end of 2002. we hope. 2003 is looking even crazier so far, with the
first half of 03 seeing the TECHNICOLOR limited 7", KENRIC MCDOWELL CD,
HELLO THIS IS ALEX CD, more FUTURE OF SOUND
limited 7"releases, and CDs from YOUR FAVORITE HORSE and .TAPE.
