50 for 2010 - Gareth #7
Multiple records in at number 7, sometimes it’s just hard to pick one.
Various Artists - Study Series (Ghost Box)
This year, Ghost Box Records became my newest favourite label thanks to their Study Series of 7” records. Featuring Belbury Poly, Broadcast & the Focus Group, The Advisory Circle, Moon Wiring Club and Hong Kong in the 60s (so far, I’m not sure how long it’s going for), the first four instalments have been right up my street. Like modern library music, the sounds are peculiar and wonderful - a very special collection that has been a huge highlight of 2010.
Listed below are the instalments so far, click the links to listen on Spotify, or click here to listen to the whole collection:
Belbury Poly – Study Series 01: Youth and Recreation
The Advisory Circle – Study Series 02: Cycles and Seasons
Belbury Poly – Study Series 03: Welcome to Godalming
Broadcast – Study Series 04: Familiar Shapes and Noises
