Topplers is a micro DIY label based in Scotland with an international roster of artists with roots in the UK post punk scene of the late '70s. We love to release vinyl 45s and LPs but also release CD, MP3 and Cassette albums!
Our artists include Steve Treatment, Dan Melchior, Jowe Head, Phones Sportsman, The Knockouts, Valerie and Her Week of Wonders, The Cult Figures and The NoMen.
LATEST NEWS - STEVE TREATMENT. Topplers Records are thrilled to be releasing our first ever cassette box set. This will consist of four 75 minute tapes containing the best of Steve Treatment's home recordings from 2001 to 2012. Those of you familiar will Steve's work will recognise some of these tracks from previous releases on Topplers, but for this release all overdubs have been removed; these are raw live recordings performed in his house by Steve Treatment just as nature intended.
The cassettes come in a special box with a 24pp booklet and we are even throwing in a CD with all the tracks converted to MP3 for all you modern types with iPods!
Please e.mail info [at] topplers.net to reserve a copy. Price will be £14.99 including UK Postage, (slightly more for EU and US orders). Official release date is June 1st, pre-ordered items will ship ASAP.
This would be a good time to look out that old SONY Walkman or check if your Ghetto Blaster still works! The tapes sound great. Steve Treatmenthas always recorded directly onto cassette and in the past we have attempted to clean up the sound before releasing them on CD. Now we have realised that we should have released them exactly as they were recorded, and they really do sound better without any digital filters!
There are over 100 songs on this collection and, like all of Steve's releases, there are no B-Sides every track is a genuine A-Side. There are lots of great new songs that have never been heard before and there are some reworkings of his seventies classics. He also does some interesting cover versions and the final side of the last cassette is dedicated to his never ending cycle of Christmas songs!!!
So, join the campaign to bring back hisss and grab a copy of this limited edition cassette when it is released in June. More details soon...
