In this collection, we have curated new finds alongside old, treasured tracks that hold a special place in our hearts. We selected music that inspires us from various genres including Brazilian, Latin, soul, disco, gospel, cosmic, dancehall, and downtempo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe have chosen a diverse array of artists, including **Os Panteras** from Brazil, stomping underground disco by **Claude Jay**, the Danish soul sounds of **Gitte \u0026amp; Inger**, and the gospel excellence of **Truth \u0026amp; Devotion**, to name a few.

An album curated by Richard Norris (The Grid, Beyond the Wizard’s Sleeve, The Time and Space Machine, and more) and centred around Richard’s Liverpool Club Night ’The Hangout’ in the 1980’s.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRichard Norris on how The Hangout came about after being inspired to go to University in Liverpool…..\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a place with a distinctly psychedelic tinge, Liverpool was missing one thing in the mid-eighties. A full-on psychedelic club night. I’d been schooled in all things psychedelic, a result of working at Bam Caruso, a label steeped in psych who lovingly reissued many lysergic greats. It was a fantastic education. I was determined to bring some technicolour sonics to Liverpool. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI found a suitable venue, called Krackers, at the bottom of Mount Pleasant. It was a big basement club, with a stage, video projector, lights, bar, and long tables. In front of the stage, there was ample space for a dance floor. There’s something about clubs in basements. They just work. I chatted to the owner, Bill, who suggested trying out Thursdays for the new night. Inspired by Bam Caruso, and the Soho club Alice in Wonderland, I agreed to take Thursdays on. 50p to get in. The night was named The Hangout.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Hangout was born in autumn 1984. The place was perfect. Clips of op art psychedelic films copied to VHS tape were projected on to the large screen that covered the stage. There was a smoke machine, a bubble machine, many moving lights. The place opened to a packed dancefloor and stayed that way into 1985 and beyond. There were guest bands, including Zodiac Mindwarp, Mr.Suit featuring Larry from Wimple Winch, Freight Train and the Cardiacs, among others. There were giveaways of sweets, flowers, balloons, and jelly. Tons of jelly. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMusically, the Hangout’s take on psychedelia and freakbeat had one aim - to make you dance. We weren’t trainspotters – it didn’t matter if a record was rare, so long as it grooved and worked on the dancefloor. We’d give equal time to the more bandwagon end of sixties exploitation as to hipper acts. I’d pick up tracks on shopping trips in London with Phil Smee from Bam Caruso, or at Probe in Liverpool, where there was a class selection of psychedelia. Bob and Mick from Probe, and their mate Bernie Connor, became Hangout DJ’s, and brought even further mind-bending madness to the Hangout dancefloor. Standout tunes got played again and again, every week, until tracks like The Left Banke’s ‘I’ve Got Something on My Mind’, the Turtles ‘Buzzsaw’, Can’s ‘Outside Your Door’ and all the other tunes you now hold in your hands, became bona fide Hangout club anthems. The Hangout came and went in a flash, but its legacy of bringing psychedelic foot stompers to the dancefloor carries on. The Hangout left me with a personal love of all things beat and freak.  I’ve been pursuing various musical shapes that all have their roots on the Hangout’s psychedelic dancefloor ever since. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI hope you enjoy this compilation.

For those that truly love Indie Pop, this underground music has been a constant source of joy for almost 40 years \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIndie Pop – how best to describe it? A kind of Anti-Club, an underground scene where people discuss 7” B-sides and handmade record sleeves, swap fanzines, share hand-written gig flyers and collect button badges of their favourite bands. Ridiculed at times by the music press in the early years and the uninformed calling it ‘cardigan wearing’, ‘twee’ or ‘bed wetting’ music, but to its fans it has almost cult-like status and its DIY attitude continues to shine. Go back to beginnings in the mid 1980s seeking out cool 7” singles in hand made sleeves, by bands with unusual names, taking them home and falling in love with this music and all these exciting new bands. Hanging out in tiny basement clubs like The Sunshine Playroom and The Apple Orchard in Brighton, and many other similar club nights around the country, with like-minded souls, watching these DIY bands just pick up some instruments and get out there playing live. Who needed the Music Press anyway? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFast forward to 2024 and there are still so many great bands coming through in the scene, such has indie Pop’s legacy stood the test of time, and when so many other press-driven ‘scenes’ have come and gone. This compilation just scratches at the surface, there is simply so much incredible music. From the 138-track starting point we couldn’t clear everything we wanted of course, but the final track listing we hope gives a beautiful glimpse into our world of Indie Pop. Is it perfect? Definitely not but what is perfection anyway? It’s a great starting point to go and discover this ever-evolving scene, so go digging and see what you can find but for now we invite you to Come to my World \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eCome to My World\u003c\/i\u003e starts at the beginning with cool bands like Talulah Gosh, The Flatmates, Blueboy, Primal Scream, McCarthy, 14 Iced Bears and The Springfields, releasing on trailblazing DIY labels such as Sarah Records, The Subway Organization and Creation. We go through the influential C86 cassette years, to the more commercial late 1980’s sounds of The Primitives, The Soup Dragons and The Darling Buds. Navigating through the 1990’s with the underrated brilliance of Heavenly, the flourishing Scottish scene including amongst others BMX Bandits and The Vaselines, plus Stateside the Indie Pop sounds of Velocity Girl and Blake Babies breaking through.

Recorded in March 1977, the core line up of Irmin Schmidt, Jaki Liebezeit, Michael Karoli, and Holger Czukay is augmented by the addition of Rosko Gee (Traffic) on bass. Gee’s recent addition to the line-up meant that Holger Czukay was freed up from bass duties to perform “waveform radio and spec. sounds”, manifesting here as otherworldly sounds, samples and what one reviewer of a later show described as “moontalk to a white continental telephone.” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e 1977 was a difficult period for Can; their recently released eighth studio album, \u003ci\u003eSaw Delight\u003c\/i\u003e, had been badly received and although posterity has been kinder to the album, the reviews on release were savage. Journalist, broadcaster and author Jennifer Lucy Allan’s meticulous research of the time, place and context of the performance on the accompanying sleeve notes led her to declare of the album: “On paper, unremarkable. In practice, a precious hunk of sonic material.” Before going on to remind us that “The heads know – forums and published books alike agree – that ‘76-’77 is the best of the Can live years (Keele included). A couple of the tracks from this show have been included on fan-made “best of” live bootlegs over the years.
