While Russell was formally trained as a classical cellist, he was very much a multi-faceted musician, having produced the first 12 inch single for Seymour Stein's Sire tag (InchKiss Me AgainInch) and co-founded the Sleeping Bag tag himself. Sleeping Bag releases were the heart of the underground disco music scene that operated well below the radar of the pop hits that dominated the charts. Under the guise of Dinosaur L, Russell released InchGo BangInch to great acclaim (remixed by Francois Kervorkian). Sleeping Bag releases were regularly played at Larry Levan's Paradise Garage and other haunts of true discophiles. Here is a wonderful compendium of the man's lifetime of work, that life cut all too short by AIDS in 1992.

LP WHITE vinyl, Limited Edition Spot Gloss Sleeve. HTRK's seminal debut gets a new cut to white vinyl with white sleeve and gloss cover. An abrasive record shrouded in sonorous pulses, deafening feedback and tension-soaked reverb that immerses you deep into their world. HTRK's lo-fi post-punk, post-industrial noise-electronica echoes Suicide, Throbbing Gristle and Joy Division. 'Nostalgia' took inspiration from the sound and imagery of David Lynch, The Birthday Party and electronic artist Pita. Rowland S Howard's 'Teenage Snuff Film' was also cited as a big influence, HTRK notably caught the post-punk legend's attention with their live gigs which saw him endorse the band and go on to co-produce their next 'Marry Me Tonight'. A compelling introductory statement that delves into their guilty nostalgia for the nihilistic energies rampant in the 80s underground. InchAn agitated haze of addictive ambivalence instead of the swagger and violence of their influences, the overall feeling is of beautiful disharmonyInch All Music..A1 - Hate Rock Trio A2 - Look What's Been Done A3 - Look Down The Line B1 - Look at That Girl B2 - Look At Her B3 - You Injured Me B4 - I'm All Broke Up
