Just agreed a new project for next year ‘The Bristol Mod / Power pop Explosion’. Another chapter in the history of the sub culture, the scene, the era . The guy we’ve enlisted to help us with the story is Michael Salter and an old friend of mine from school. We used to hang out together at the gigs and clubs. Early days but excited about the soundtrack to our lives. Christmas we’ll start pulling it together. More updates soon.

Record Store Day 2015 is just around the corner, April 18th in fact. We are delighted to confirm that our record store release for 2015 will be a 500 pressing of Restriction ‘Action’ ep, originally released in 1983. We continue our quest to tell the full story of the Bristol reggae scene from the 70′s to the 80′s in fine style with this Mad Professor production.
