About this product

Inspiration can come at you fast, even after yearsgardening in the countryside.Marcus Lambkin aka S**t Robot is as original DFA asthey come a dyed in the wool Dublin rave kid turnedadopted New Yorker, the former co-owner of earlyDFA watering hole Plant Bar, and one of the guys whoshowed the uptight indie contingent how to neck an E,love techno and lose their marbles on a dance floor.But after three albums, countless twelves, and DJgigs around the world, where do you go? If you'reMarcus, you go gardening, retreating to a quiet life inthe German countryside, occasionally DJing for yourfriends in LCD Soundsystem when they invite you toopen a week's worth of shows, and working on musicwhen you can. Y'know, life stuff.So, it took awhile, but eventually new songs landedon the proverbial desk at DFA HQ. There were roughand tough. The Robot had returned and he was goingstraight for the chugular.After all that, finishing the record was like lightning ina bottle. A few days fleshing things out with Al Doyle(of Hot Chip, LCD Soudnsystem) in London. Vocalsadded from Suzi Horn (of Prinzhorn Dance Schoolon the leadoff) and Warmduscher's Mutado Pintado.A razor-sharp mix of the whole thing from JamesMurphy at DFA in Brooklyn.Five tightly wound, unfussy, completely diabolicaldance tracks. The gardener shall have his revenge.It's time to lose those marbles all over again.

Shit Robot - No Cigar   - 12-INCH SINGLE [12 inch Vinyl Single]

S**t Robot's InchNo CigarInch was recorded in London at Al Doyle andJoe Goddard's Relax And Enjoy Studios, a hanging Chad fromthe sessions that finished 2023's 5 Songs EP. This is slower,dubbier S**t, 110bpm with a spare arrangement and a barelysung vocal saying only, InchClose no cigar.InchIt begged for a proper dub for the b-side, something that threw itaround in space but didn't necessarily change it up, somethingthat sounded a bit like African Head Charge and New AgeSteppers and early-80s On-U Sound records. So we asked theguy who made those records, Adrian Sherwood, if he'd have ago. Miraculously, he said yes, and his version is actually exactlyon the money Album Tracks 1. No Cigar 2.

Crime & the City Solution - The Killer   - VINYL LP

Vinyl LP pressing. Crime & the City Solution return with their seventh studio album, and first in 10 years, the killer. Played out over 7 tracks and recorded in Berlin, the record is arguably Crime's finest work and is set to be their masterpiece. The album sees central figurehead Simon Bonney's trademark storytelling surrounded by the deep, layered and mesmerising instrumentation created by this new incarnation of the band, including long term member Bronwyn Adams and new members Frederic Lyenn, Donald Baldie, Georgio Valentino, Chris Hughes and Joshua Murphy. This is paired with Martin J. Fiedler's (Josh T. Pearson, Alex White) production, creating a magical atmosphere of foreboding and opportunity.
