FROM VIENNA WITH LOVE

The Klang Galerie record label has released a sampler called "From Vienna With Love".



I admit that a title like this might get one's hope up for a John Barry tribute, but I'm not convinced that this is the case.

A project that was at the back of our minds for a long time is finally being realized. This compilation is an homage to Belgian label Les Disques du Crepuscule and their art of creating unique compilation albums. Their first ever release was a cassette called "From Brussels with Love". Crepuscule released compilations that were works of art, not promotional tools for albums from their catalogue. We would like to revive this tradition with this collection of music from our friends and collaborators. Artists include Eric Random, Renaldo M, The Burning Hell, Rapoon, R.B. Russell, Naevus, Attrition & Christopher Richard Barker, Roma Amor, Frenk Lebel, The Darkening Scale, Charles Bobuck, The Residents, Schwump, Herr Lounge Corps & Cadaverous Condition, 7JK, Bumps, Avery Parks, Natascha Schampus & Thomas Fröhlich and Paul Roland. Most songs are exclusive to this collection, in fact the majority were specifically written or recorded for the project. Mastered at The Cage by Martin Bowes. Also included are artworks by friends of the label. An overall beautiful production.
