Eric Random - A Boy Alone [DE-220 USA 2018 24-Bit FLAC] Some of you maybe interested in this fine double vinyl compendium of the works of Eric Random.  A Boy Alone compiles classic singles, a live track, some unreleased recordings and a few other odds'n'sods. The innovative Random began his music career as a roadie for The Buzzcocks prior to a run of important electronic albums and singles, following a similar path to early Cabaret Voltaire (with whom he often collaborated), migrating towards tribal experimentation rather than the dance/house path adopted by the influential Sheffield knob twiddlers.  A1 Subliminal A2 23 Skidoo A3 Dow Chemical Comapany A4 Skin Deep A5 In Serious Dub B1 Meets The Bedlamites In Cassette Conference B2 Slaves & Pyramids (Live) B3 Pure Power (Demo) B4 6:55 C1 Subliminal Seduction C2 Bedlam A Go-Go C3 Liquid Metal D1 Mad As Mankind D2 Dream Web Of Maya D3 Pure Power

The Tiller Boys - Big Noise From The Jungle [7" ORG 3 UK 1980 24-Bit FLAC] One of my first ever rips from back in the earliest days of ESWA gets a 24-bit re-rip. A name we should all know from various Factory posters and their gigs with Joy Division, yet their only product was released on New Hormones  ....though it was rumoured to have been scheduled as an early Factory release.  The Tiller Boys were Pete Shelley (guitars), Eric Random (noises) and Frank Cookson (drums). This self-produced 7" EP is a collection of three messy instrumentals, each of them totally annoying in its own particular way. The b-side annoyingly plays at 33rpm and is ripped here pops, crackle, noise and all. A1 Big Noise From The Jungle B1 Slaves And Pyramids B2 What Me Worry?
