LIE 022 LIE 022 THE KITCHEN CYNICS - "Swearing in semaphore" (16 songs)

Unconventional, at times dissonant, melodies by the most prolific singer/songwriter north of Hadrian's Wall lead you through surreal atmospheres in a haunting journey from the gentle rustle of the waves quietly breaking on northern Scotland's empty shores to the most secret recesses of your heart.

LIE 025 LIE 025 JOHN T. BAKER - "Little Rock Songs" (11 songs)

D.I.Y. pop veteran John T. Baker has picked B.K.S. for the release of this chapter in his long production of awesome Sixties-inspired guitar pop filled with Byrds-ish guitar and irresistible singalong vocals. Whether it's upbeat and groovy or slower and quiet, it fuses humour and nostalgia in a touching and compelling mix. Low-fidelity at its best.

LIE 026 LIE 026 SIMPÁTICO - "Of Goodbye Kisses" (18 songs)

Simpático is Jason Sweeney of Sweet William. This cassette is yet another piece of evidence of Jason's brilliant pop songwriting skills. Acoustic guitars pour out gorgeous melodies over graceful floating synth-made textures. Sweet, sweeter, sweetest.

LIE 027 LIE 027 RIVER - "Once Upon A Time" (22 songs)

Charming fragile tunes by the king of French bedroom pop.

LIE 028 LIE 028 OTHER PEOPLE'S CHILDREN - "Happy Friend In Frosted City" (6 songs)

More music from Jason Sweeney. Definitely electronic, Other People's Children's tunes are at the same time reminiscent of early Eighties British electronic pop and close to the poppy side of the contemporary space rock movement.

LIE 029 LIE 029 GARFIELD'S BIRTHDAY - "Words And Pictures" (10 songs)

Following their appearance on the second volume of the "Beware of the ricochet" compilation, Simon Felton and his fellow bandmates provide us with a full length cassette featuring ten superb pop tunes brilliantly combining elements of the British and American pop experience of the Sixties, Seventies, Eighties and Nineties.
