We are really excited to present the debut album from t.r. hand, 'Folke Meditation'. Relatively little is known about t.r. hand; we received a somewhat cryptic press release from his (?) intermediaries at Glove of Bones, which had the (presumably intentional) effect of leaving us knowing less about t.r. than before we'd read it. Frowning …
Of krautrock and Klang
So, krautrock. I suspect most of us have a mental image of what krautrock should sound like, but it's odd because as Stuart Maconie succinctly pointed out "in truth, no two Krautrock acts sound remotely alike". The very term krautrock itself sticks in my craw, but for whatever reason, the alternative - less offensive - …

We have, finally, managed to consolidate all the Submarine Broadcasting Company onto one Bandcamp page; due to the way we started out, everything was very organic with a band here and a compilation there, but with a busy year ahead we felt it was worth trying to create one single storefront so nothing falls down …
Review: Ian Haygreen/The Tides Erase All Things
'The Tides Erase All Things' is the latest release from Ian Haygreen, self styled "Classically trained pianist who buggers around with electronic music in several genres as the mood fits". The mood in this instance is revealed in a footnote that indicates this release is 'Droneseries #1'; it's a long-form piece comprising a single track …
