Unknown Artist / Imperfection Turns Me On
Format: 12"
Price: ¥1890(税込)
Date: 2020/04/23シェフィールドの才人Crooked Man aka Richard Barrattが主宰する鉄板ディスコ・リエディット・レーベル<Bitter End Records>最新第12弾!!元Sweet Exorcistだというのも納得のトリッピーな全3trks素晴らしい仕上がり!!
Tracklist:
A1. Imperfection Turns Me On
A2. B And E
B1. Sleepwalk
'Imperfection Turns Me On' is the sound of Nile Rodgers sharing a bag of flake with the local bell-ringing society, while B & E upsets the curtain twitchers with an uplifting lude-a-thon of swirling synth riffing and those ever-present Crooked and pin sharp beats. SLEEPWALK unashamedly hogs a whole side, gently imposing its dub-soaked 15 minute self directly into your hypothalamus, with some Basic Channelesque transcendentalism, but from Yorkshire. Dependably unbendable ! As always, limited and LOUD -
Unknown Artist / Itchicrickitch / Princess (Acsension)
Format: 12"

Tracklist:
A1. Itchicrickitch
B1. Princess (Acsension)
Ten releases in, and STILL far better than the rest. In a more raucous mood, it seems Bitter End have pre-empted the summer of debauchery ahead of us by unleashing their Sweetest exorcism yet...ITCHICRICKITCH is the tweaking weirdo in the corner, the unsettling presence that invariably unites the room in the simplistic joy of judgement free release. 'PRINCESS' appeared on the flipside of a frankly far more regal diva originally on GALL005, here she's the smudged mascara version, much stroppier and not due home 'til way after sunrise. As always, limited and LOUD -

Tracklist:
A1. Kneel B4 Thelma B1. Mast Song
Nothing makes us jump up from the desk, shouting 'Whaaaaat ?' like a Bitter End new release ! The label continue to forge a path that's entirely their own, with another in the limited pre-release series...'Kneel B4 Thelma' on side A, flips one of her biggest hits into an utterly futuristic cyborg-Soul anthem ! Almost as if we'd all forgotten how good one of Earth's greatest 20th century divas might sound over a filthy 21st century Klanken-banger ! On the flip 'Mast Song' transports us to a seaside tavern, where the old folks sit in the back, evoking (and imbibing) strong spirits, with traditional shanty's while the next generation find communion in the gentle throb of the 4/4 in the tap room next door. Light years ahead ! -
Unknown Artist / Dimension Extension / Be There Again
Format: 12"
Price: ¥1890(税込)
Date: 2018/12/05あの<West End Records>へのオマージュとして'13年に始動した<Bitter End Records>最新作が絶対オススメ!!DJ Harveyフェイバリットとしても知られるジャマイカン・レアグルーヴ・レゲエThe Soul Vendors"Granny Scratch Scratch"をネタにしたA面に加え、Theo Parrishプレイのオージー・ダンス・クラシックRenee Geyer"Be There In The Morning"を大胆に捌いたB面のグレイトフル・ダブル・サイダー!!
Tracklist:
A1. Dimension Extension B1. Be There Again
Bitter End continue to forge a path that's entirely their own, with another in the limited pre-release series... 'Dimension Extension' on side A, cooks up a sumptuously throbbing, cockle-warming Disco stew from the meagre ingredients of a sprouted wah wah guitar potato, brass carrots and a bouquet garni of dizzying strings. On the flip 'Be There Again' takes as inspiration a swirling Funk-Soul nugget from '77, augmented with some 21st century sonic sorcery and most welcome synth noodle in the 3rd act. Once again Bitter End rips up the rule book, and crafts a whole set of new, better ones in which freedom reigns. Light years ahead ! -

Unknown Artist / Can't Stop / Fat On The Land
Format: 12"
Price: ¥1790(税込)
Date: 2017/03/28Moonboots & Jason Boardman主宰<Aficionado Recordings>がUSアンダーグラウンド・ディスコ名門<West End Records>へのオマージュとして始動させたオフシュートその名も<Bitter End Records>から約3年振りとなる第3弾が登場!!
Bitter End emerge from the ashes of 2016 with a message of positivity and protest beamed from the near future. Keen eyed aficionado's may spot the homage to Mel Cheron's classic US label West End Records here. But while their motto may have been 'Where The Sun Sets & The Stars Rise' Bitter End Records embarks on a distinctly more 21st century path to dancefloor salvation...003 sees a welcome return to utilising the full sonic reach of the 12" single, with these two 21st century power-dancers for strobe-lit moments of praise. 'Can't Stop' explores a Walter Gibbons approach to teasing a groove to within an inch of its life, and WHAT a groove. The Disco at the end of the universe may well be beaming this one up, such is its sheer intergalactic and unrelenting bad assery. We recently witnessed this unite a dancefloor in such wild abandon it should come with an age restriction !
