British independent label ATP Recordings are to release a new EP as part of ‘Record Store Day’.
Beginning in the United States, Record Store Day is a unique celebration of the humble independent music shop. Held on April 17th, the day features a number of recordings available only from tiny stores.
Amongst the groups paying their respects to dingy vinyl dens this year are Canadian hardcore types Fucked Up, with British label ATP Recordings amongst the latest to confirm a special release.
A forthcoming EP will feature the best music released on the label, run by the organisers of All Tomorrows Parties. If you’ve been to Minehead you’ll know what to expect – expertly put together, eclectic and often challenging the label’s output matches the line up of the famed event.
The new EP will be limited to just 1000 copies, the ten inch vinyl release will feature a number of unreleased tracks. Amongst the artists confirmed for the EP are American group APSE, whose new album became a ClashMusic stereo staple.
Joining the psych-rockers on the compilation are the likes of Built To Spill, Sleepy Sun, Fursaxa and more.
Meanwhile, All Tomorrows Parties is preparing to host special events curated by Matt Groening and reformed alt rock dons Pavement.
ATP Recordings release their ‘Record Store Day’ ten inch EP on April 17th. Watch a teaser below…
