LIE 035 LIE 035 99CENT DREAM - "The Hottest Demo Of The Season/Greatest Hits Vol. 10" (15 songs)

This is a tape whose release I have been looking forward to for a long time. Insightful and soft spoken challenging pop that weaves a melodically unpredictable web of ethereal keyboards and background noises, a caressing piano, chiming guitars and hypnotizing vocals. Almost entirely played and sung by Jamey Gray, the man behind the fine A Bouncing Space label.

LIE 036 LIE 036 CHELSEA'S CORNER - "Two Hundred Words In Snow" (12 songs)

Absolutely remarkable home recorded guitar work from Sweden inspiring a warm and deep sense of intimacy while dealing with personal issues and uncomfortable feelings. Reflective acoustic tunes alternating with subtly noisy tracks with the odd bits of weirdness thrown in make up a little lo-fi masterpiece.

LIE 037 LIE 037 TIM CHAPLIN - "The 22nd floor" (10 songs)

After a 7" on the French label Plastic Pancake and an appearance on volume two of our "Beware of the Ricochet" compilation, the rising star of the British homemade pop scene is back with ten previously unreleased songs.

LIE 038 LIE 038 PAR AVION - "A song a day" (7 songs)

More electronic bliss by Jason Sweeney. Joined by Janiece Pope, whose lovely voice adds even more charm and beauty to his unique sonic creations, Jason once and for all establishes himself as one of the leading artists engaged in the innovation of contemporary pop music.

LIE 039 LIE 039 KAYE - "Pink sky at night" (10 songs)

Kaye's songs show her talent and passion for bringing together traditional sounds and atmospheres and a loose pop sensibility.

LIE 040 LIE 040 KIZZY - "Rusty grass and a green box" (14 songs)

Kizzy is Christy, Kaye's sister. Just like her sister, Christy is a truly gifted singer/songwriter, who gives us lovely guitar/violin-based folk tunes along with a couple of excursions into the so-called post-rock territories.
