    Nader & Robert,

    If you haven't heard this yet, you should order this. Eleven Pond 'Bas Relief' Remastered Reissue

    I ordered mine. I heard the original in Goutroy's blog. Awesome!!

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    NOW AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER

    Please go to www.darkentriesrecords.com/shop to pre-order.

    Finally, the debut release on Dark Entries Records is here.
    After almost a year of work, I'm proud to bring you:

    DE-001 Eleven Pond "Bas Relief" LP

    Dark Entries Records is proud to announce the reissue of the debut album by Eleven Pond. Long sought after by collectors, the Rochester, NY band only released a single LP in their time together before dissolving into obscurity. Their sound--a merging of post punk's dark dance and synthpop's melodic arrangements--reflected the originality of gifted songwriters who met in art school with a shared interest in 4AD and Factory Records.

    In cooperation with the band members, the entire album has been remastered from the original 2-track analogue masters by George Horn at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley.

    The recordings on this release comprise the band's entire recorded output and the LP includes an original insert including photos, lyrics and liner notes.

    Eleven Pond officially parted ways in 1987 but nearly a quarter-century later these recordings prove how vital they remain.

    Questions, distros, cash or money orders, etc. darkentries AT darkentriesrecords.com

    ps. Record release parties are happening too!
    Sunday July 12th - Honey @ Paradise Lounge - San Francisco
    Saturday July 25th - MRX @ Roberto's - Los Angeles
    Wednesday August 12th - Wierd @ Home Sweet Home - New York

    It's just one of those subculture clichés.

    I think it is safe to say that this scene has the highest number of collectors relative to its size of any music scene.
    Hardcore minimal electro lovers spend their every saturday afternoon, or any given free hour in second hand record stores to find that most elusive, most rare minimal 7" that nobody else knows about. Gemms that have unjustly been forgotten for 25/30 years. We buy it, take it home and play it once and never again, because it is "our little precious".
    We do organise parties sometimes though and dance together alone to forgotten gemms that the DJ has found or spend the night just listening, knowing that we have a couple of rare gemms at home that the DJ luckily hasn't found yet, which are much much better than what he is serving us.
    As the future has already happened here, new bands can't do anything else but go back to the future and look and sound as if it still is 1981, and so it shouldn't be surprising that the format of choice to carry the music is preferably released on 12" or even better 7" vinyl in quantities below 500 copies.
