19.06.08 - NEWS
Shipping has started on the "Canned" editions. We estimate that this will take around a week to complete and will be shipped in the order that we received the orders. Please try to bear with us, we're not EMI and we'll be working flat out to get these out.
Faust/NWW "Disconnected" vinyl has been futher delayed. I have a guaranteed arrival date of July 2 here, so these will ship immediately then. The good news is, that to compensate for the delay, I have managed to get 300 copies made on "Disconnected" vinyl, which all mail order customers will get. You will have to wait and see what exactly this means...
Finally, I'd like to thank everybody for their saintly patience during this time. Your words of encouragment and understanding are really apprceciated.

Important announcement re. Nurse With Wound "Canned" special edition
It is with intense frustration
and disappointment, that we regretfully have had to return all the metal
boxes to the supplier. The printing on the sets was not of the quality
of the sample we received and we had to take the decision that we simply
could not send them out to you as they were. Please accept our sincere
apologies for this delay, we have not taken this decision lightly, but
we will never ship anything we consider to be anything but the highest
quality. This means that it will be another week before shipping starts
on the special editions. Anybody wanting a full refund can certainly have
one. If you do require this, please send an email and it will happen immediately.
Due to the volume of inquiries that we have had on this release, we can
only issue the refunds, so please don't email us for further information,
this is all we have and we are working flat out to try and get this situation
resolved quickly. Thanks again for your support, patience and understanding.

At
last we can let the world know that Dirter is releasing the new CD by
S/T, the Kraut-Psych band from Frankfurt. This CD, of nearly 70 minutes
of all brand new material, is the most accomplished work to date from
this astounding band that sound like no other. Their previous releases
have appeared on both their own "Save Our Sperms" and "Get
Happy" imprints, as well as the label run by Hans Joachim Irmler
of Faust, Klangbad.
"S/T are a classic krautrock group - not in the sense that they
sound like other krautrock groups, but that they take krautrock forward
in a punk / songwriter direction."
Andy Wilson (Author of "Faust - Stretch Out Time" and Grand
Erector of www.faust-pages.com).
The first 1000 copies come packaged in a beautiful mini-LP sleeve, printed
on reverse board with a lyric sheet.

In
what promises to be Dirter's busiest year yet, 2008 continues with the
co-release (with art-errorist)
of this collaboration between Nurse With Wound's Liles, and Peron of Faust.
Neither of these artists needs any introduction and all expectations are
overtaken with this incredible album. Here is something that sounds like
a both a "Krautrock" album and also like nothing you can imagine.
Its twists and turns keep surprising and thrilling you several hearings
on from the first. The words "classic" and "masterpiece"
would not be out of place here.

Merzbow is well established as THE pioneer of the Japanese noise / avant-garde scene and Band Of Pain are leaders in the melancholic dark ambient / cinematic world - once described by Terrorizer magazine as being "what Wagner would be doing if he was alive today." This full colour picture disc is pressed onto heavyweight vinyl and cut by the finest mastering studio to give the best possible reproduction for its powerful and intoxicating layers of sound. Limited to 1000 copies worldwide, this beautiful picture disc vinyl LP features a side apiece from each of these artists.
We at Dirter are delighted to announce the incredible first release in this new area on the website for music on other labels. This is an ongoing thing and will be used to make available CDs and records that we feel should be in your homes.
Dirter is proud
to announce this brand new re-mastered and expanded edition of this long
out of print seminal live CD from Japan's Marble Sheep (or to give them
their full title on this release "Marble Sheep and the Run-Down Sun's
Children"), originally released by Cold Spring in 1995 ('Shinjuku
Loft').
This classic Marble Sheep line-up boasts the inclusion of some giants
of the Japanese scene. Members of Zeni Geva, Incapacitants and Hijokaidan
all grace the CD for this blistering performance of incendiary Japanese
psychedelic rock music .
The CD is lavishly housed in a beautiful mini-LP gloss laminated sleeve,
with brand new full colour artwork. It is rounded off with the inclusion
of 2 previously unreleased tracks from the same period in the band's history.

To celebrate the 21st anniversary of Dirter's existence we are delighted to announce a very special and ultra limited edition release. The very first Dirter LP, "Mac The Paperman - Up To The Box" is being re-issued on CD with bonus material. For those unfamiliar with the nature of this recording (this is not a CD of music), an excerpt from the CD sleeve notes is reproduced here. This should tell you all you need to know. So if you are at all interested in grabbing a genuine slice of London life from the 1970's, be sure to place your order. This will be strictly limited to just 100 copies, in keeping with the original LP release, and is a proper factory manufactured CD, shrink-wrapped and packaged in the style of a classical "Deutsche Grammophon" CD with full colour booklet and inlay into a jewel case, NOT CDR. The CD is available and shipping now, at a price of £10. This special edition is selliing out very quickly, so please place your order now to avoid disappointment. There will be no re-issue.
