Was Ist Das

A great review of the Carlton Melton (band page) live album we put out is up on the Complex Distractions website. They even included a link to our Bandcamp page at the end. Copies still available from our Arizona and Scotland offices!

Good grief, today marks 20 years of Was Ist Das?

What better way to celebrate than by reissuing the classic Human Greed album "World Fair" in a deluxe double cassette edition. When it originally came out in 2014 we raved about its brilliance and named it album fo the year so to now have this definitive version on our label on our 20th birthday feels like a full circle.

Simply one of the most beautiful yet haunting albums ever made. Chris Connelly (Finitribe, Ministry, Revolting C***s) gives a classic rendition of the old standard "Black Is The Colour". Other rguests include Sukie Smith of Madam, jazz singer Sophie Bancroft, guitarist Steven R.Smith and classical musician Duncan MacKenzie.

Oh, and then we have a whole bonus remix album created by Human Greed's principle members Michael Begg & Deryk Thomas with Colin Potter at ICR studios.

Link in the comments below as apparently if we put it in here then our Meta overlords will bury the post.

We ran out of copies of the latest Myriad Valley album here in Arizona but Was Ist Das? Scotland just sent us some of their stock so now shipping from the US again (and less copies left in the UK!)

We're now offering shipping from Germany to the EU as well from the UK and the USA for the Carlton Melton (band page) live album. We're expecting copies at the start of next month. Only 250 copies so don't miss out!
