The Independent Label Market is back this summer, collecting together the founders of some of the world’s most renowned independent labels in Old Spitalfields Market, London on July 13 to sell their freshly pressed vinyl wares to you discerning punters.
And, as we’ve previously announced, this year the Quietus Phonographic Corporation will be joining them. Having frequented all the ILMs thus far and spent all our pocket money at them, we’re getting in on the action and selling copies of East India Youth’s Hostel EP, with the man himself joining us.
We’ve also called on some of our favourite independent labels to join us on our stall: Liberation Technologies, Perc Trax, Exotic Pylon, John Foxx’s Metamatic, Human Level, Rocket Recordings, Diagonal and Riot Season will all be flogging their final wares with us, so definitely stop by.
In other ILM news, the final labels to join the already bulging list (have a look at it in full below) have recently been announced, with Damnably, Marshall Teller, Parlour, Late Night Tales, Communion, Discrepant and Tape Club heading along as well.
The ILM will be followed by a vast array of ace bands performing across east London venues for East End Live festival: Factory Floor’s Gabe Gurnsey and Dominic Butler, The Pre New and Grumbling Fur have all been added to the line-up, which already included East India Youth, Teeth Of The Sea and TOY; head over to the one-dayer’s website for full details and tickets, and watch out for an interview with headliners Pere Ubu next week.
In the meantime, whet your appetite for ILM with this playlist put together by the organisers, featuring artists from the attending labels, and stay tuned to the event’s Facebook page:
