Everyone here at the Conning Tower was winding down, lowering the periscope, ready for the traditional English August of drizzle and traffic jams, when a most remarkable thing happened... a new EP from the reclusive guru of mind-training, self help/abuse and prison tattoos, t.r. hand, landed on the desk. There's a super-size serving of concept …
August Releases: Cottura 8 Minuti and Manipulant
Two releases this month, both somewhat unusual. First up is the various artists compilation, Cottura 8 Minuti (or C8M). This is compilation of music made in, or at least centered around, the kitchen. We'd love to take credit for C8M, but the truth is the curation and heavy-lifting was done by Lezet and Razrook, both …

New Release Round Up: Manipulant, Ippu Mitsui and Martin Neuhold
So that was July then. But here at Submarine Broadcasting Spires we've had no time for the World Cup, Love Island or lounging about in hammocks sipping banana daiquiris, no sirree Clive.

News from the Conning Tower: June releases
After the madness that was May, it has been a blessed relief to release a mere two albums in June, but blimey Charlie, what a pair of albums they are!

News from the Conning Tower: New Release Round-Up
It's been super busy here at SBC for the past month or so, and we have snuck out a few releases with relatively little fanfare nor ballyhoo. So, let's rectify that straight away. Back at the beginning of May, we released the debut EP from the immensely talented singer/songwriter Sil Fiore, who performs under the …

News from the Conning Tower: Radio Transmissions
Blimey, do we have some exciting stuff for you this May! Yes, yes we do. It was rhetorical, hence no question mark. But before we can tell you about that, here is some news that JUST CAN'T WAIT! Firstly, our very own Manipulant will be featured on The Comfy Show, on Radio Woking, tomorrow between …

So as we announced on the 11th April, Exhibition 2018 is released, and now all tracks are available for download or on CD. To recap: "The Exhibition compilation is in three overlapping flavours: Red, Green and Blue.

New Releases: Manipulant, Cousin Silas and GOATS
It's starting to get busy here at the Conning Tower, what with Exhibition and possibly Klang coming up, plus one secret project and two confirmed new artists. So, in our wisdom we decided to release three new works on the same day. You can thank us later. Anyway, we have pretty much something for everyone. Starting …
