LESSONS - Bandcamp

OUT TODAY!

LESSONS marks 10 years of the on-going experiment that is the FRONT & FOLLOW record label, and also the 50th official release, bringing together artists from across the years in old guises and new. From our very first collaborator (Elite Barbarian) to our most recent (The Slowest Lift) - via the likes of Pye Corner Audio, Leyland Kirby and Laura Cannell - Lessons reflects the eclectic nature of the label, and our fondness for a special project.

Includes West Norwood Cassette Library's "Tom at The Library"

T. ESSELLE - "Garibaldi EP"

  


T. ESSELLE drops his debut release on brand new label, WHOLEMEAL MUSIC.

I first heard the B side cut, "Garibaldi" when Mr. Esselle dropped it on an NTS show a few years back. Tried to sign it, couldn't, so did the next best thing and remixed it.

DON FROTH - Reflexed 12"

"... a subtly left-of-center EP, but one that still has the power to upset drinks and thud chests ..."

DON FROTH's REFLEX EP came out in 2012 on UNO Records as a digital release with the promise of a vinyl follow up. Sadly, the record never emerged so Mr Froth took matters into his own hands and the REFLEXED EP is finally released on 12" vinyl on his own Froth'n Records imprint.

The 12" features the Anthony 'Shake' Shakir remix from the original release alongside a WNCL remix and 2 re-workings from the mighty Froth himself.
