DJ Ordeal - Maureen/Left Alone 7" single
From the hung-over, paranoid city dawn skanks DJ Ordeal with a startling new 45, Maureen/Left Alone... two songs sharing the theme of disappearance and poised to envelope and terrify you. Discordant, outside time and sweetly menacing, JK is thrilled to present this punk-noir classic......
Mail Order Only; £3.50/$6 to J.Hyde.

"How Scott Walker would've make Mathilde if he'd lost his voice, had access to a vast film library to scour for samples and was in the mood for gloom-laden breakbeats. Beautiful.
(Robots And Electronic Brains)

The Relict / Below the Sea split 7"
"The people I've known are only fleeting", a heartbreaking study of disappearing lives by the Relict, coupled with a pristine drive through a winter wonderland from Below the Sea.

"One minute and twenty seven second of almost unearthly delights"
(Tangents)

Glider - Constante Degradations / The Time For Order 7"
Presenting J.K's third instalment of eerie sounds from (European) suburbia ...taut yet fragile creations; scuffed-up drumming from somewhere on the other side, a jazz inflection, hazy back-looped guitars - all building a Morriconesque tension.... Here are poems for the 3am motorway, a soundtrack from an unreleased Truffaut film. The members of Glider have never met and this record will soar....... described by Record Collector (Nov 2000) as a "masterwork of understatement"

The Clientele / The Relict split 7" single
This is the long awaited, already mythical and deeply beautiful shared single from The Clientele & The Relict. Side A, "Held in Glass" from The Relict is like grey skies, red wine and a well worn copy of the 'Notorious Byrd Brothers' featuring guest vocalist Abigail Marvell. Side AA "I Can't Seem To Make You Mine" from The Clientele is the eerily perfect follow up to their fabulous retrospective "Suburban Light" on Pointy records. With Pam Berry on guest vocals, this is like Gram & Emmylou rehearsing on a pristine and sweetly hungover Sunday afternoon.

"Damn near perfect"
(Strange Fruit)

The Relict - Southern Way / The Night That Changed Our Minds 7"
A recording from a time of long, light evenings, resting in the heat, drinking in a village pub and brief thunderstorms - this single is the perfect evocation of sunday evening in suburbia. Don't miss this hushed classic. from the record collector: "..both titles are in danger of becoming the type of song you play repeatedly, uncovering newer, more beautiful facets each time." from boa melody bar: "...shivers down my spine, recalling the gentle ripple of early Go-Betweens songs, with that reverential 3rd Velvet's album ambience casting a tangible shadow over the songs, like early morning mist."

The Clientele - All The Dust And Glass 7"
A: Reflections After Jane AA: An Hour Before The Light

The legendary recording. Voted #4 best record of 1999 by Time Out New York. A pure moment. "...like driving through Philadelphia at night with the car windows down..." hangovers and tea, DSS on wednesday, a world of ice after the pub, garden centres at Christmas, late in the evening, freezing air, streetlamps a haze through caffeine pills. Unfortunately long sold out, before anyone asks, but join the Clientele on their quest for the spirit of forever changes at the labyrinthine greenhouse.
