New CD Releases Coming Your Way

Digital singles and mp-whatnots are all very well and good but nothing for us gets us excited like getting PROPAH RECORDS like in our grubby little hands. As such we are super excited to announce not one but three new CD releases all of which will be available very shortly.

The first is a limited edition CD run of TWIN PINES MALL amazing new album “Sporting Event” which should batshit Norwegian hardcore be your thing, you will no doubt love. If you just cant wait you can listen to the album on bandcamp for now.

Second up we are super excited about the release of SLEDDING WITH TIGERS heartbreakingly cute ep “The Arrested Cats” (Which I think Im right in saying is the first CD release of the record – certainly outside of the States). The CD will also feature a sneaky bonus track in the form of a live rendition of 10:46.

And finally we are also prepping a new label Sampler (entitled “Norwanglish” for which we thank Synee Eileen) and features a veritable va-va-voom of awesome new music. Tracklisting below. In the meantime keep your eyes and ears peeled on Twitter / FB etc for more details over the coming days:

Tracklisting for Norwanglish:

Bellman – The Curse
Uno Moller – Silent Speakers
Synee Eileen & The Sunbeams – Cuckoo
Twin Pines Mall – Car Crash Hands
Mischa Non Penguin – Fear of Assault
Steffan Galler - Smile
Stylusboy – The Whole Picture
Sledding with Tigers – The Kids Will Be Alright, Eventually.
Sajama Cut – Paintings / Pantings
Sunturns – Season Cyclics

And finally our dear friend Mr Stylusboy releases a new remix mini album this weekend to coincide with Record Store Day. The seven track ep is frankly awesomesauce and you will be able to get hold of it from his bandcamp. In the meantime here is a little sneak peek preview:

Lazy Acre Records celebrates Record Store Day

Ever a fan of jumping on the nearest bandwagon Lazy Acre Records will celebrate this weekends Record Store Day by not stepping foot out of its front door. See as a label that doesn't produce vinyl and has no artists within 500 miles of our nearest record store it made arranging some kind of happening rather difficult.

Instead Lazy Acre will celebrate by running a series of events and sessions in its own webstore throughout the day. Beginning at Midday on Saturday, Lazy Acre artists will be broadcasting live sessions and shows from across the globe. Kicking off with new signing Stylusboy (who will be broadcasting from the UK), the day will also take in acoustic sets from Uno Moller (live from Oslo) and Sajama Cut (live from Jakarta) before finishing off with a headline set from MyLittlePony who will be broadcasting from Vienna.

Its a truly international happening and one that will be accompanied by a series of limited time releases (including a new MyLittlePony single, a special edition Stylusboy single with "When I Argue I See Shapes" on the B-side, a UK release for "Paintings / Pantings" from Sajama Cut and a new Uno Moller release that is so secret we won't be announcing details until the day.)

These download singles will all be priced at £2 each (or £6 for them all) and will include videos, a copy of the latest Lazy Acre fanzine and some PC wallpaper. They will be available for 2 weeks from the day of release.

Throughout the course of the day there will also be competitions, video premier's, exclusive interviews and content and 25% off everything in the webstore.

You can keep up to date with details (of which there will be plenty more to come!) and check out interviews and videos in the run up to the big day, on our special Record Store Day Minisite over at www.lazyacrerecordstoreday.blogspot.com or by following us on twitter (@lazyacrerecords)
