So I started a label... looking for instrumental bands..


Recommended Posts

I like punk. I like instrumental.
I started an instrumental label, more punk than post-rock.

 

The goal now is to put out 7 inches, any band can do, but the rule is no vocals.

So if you have an instrumental band, please get in touch.

The label is still in the red from the first release, but we're almost clear.


I got the ball rolling with Deeper Blue, which does dreamy surf-punk noir from Tokyo.
check it here: https://deeperblue.bandcamp.com/album/night-rain

Due to some strange circumstances, we ended up with 2 pressings:

The first, 170 purple and 30 black pressed in Europe with DMM cutting:

(only 1 copy of black left in stock!)

The second, 200 pressed here in Japan with lacquer cutting:

The record was reviewed here:

Here's the art for the next release. I'm just excited to share it:

I’m not in a band but from what you’ve said I think you might like Daikaiju, I’d be happy to get some of their music in a physical format. 
 

They’re a surf rock (more than just surf rock though) band and put on a killer live show. 

Thank you. Never heard of them, but the music is so similar I think I'll be accused of ripping them off. Both our albums open with the same guitar phrase and tone.
Just listening to this for the first time:

Happy to help, and I see what you mean about the similarities. Either way I wish you luck in finding that sound you’re looking for.

Forgive the lack of modesty, but if you're wanting Daikaiju on vinyl, and Deeper Blue is similar, why not get Deeper Blue?😅

Yeah I just might, no need to feel immodest, if it’s your label there’s no shame in any self promotion. 

Thank you ,<3
If you live in the USA, we have 10 purple copies and 10 Japan press copies with the drummer in FL. Anywhere else ships from Japan.
