Lefse Records Launches Way Slow Series; Volume One: Banjo or Freakout

Way Slow is a new series of releases curated by Lefse Records (home to Neon Indian, Houses). Whilst maintaining the basic structures of a formal record label, they are embracing creativity in everything from artist sound to packaging. Each release will be a unique creation from start to finish. Many of the artists are going to be releasing material that is well outside of their normal sound, some will be collaborations, some will be from parts of the world where most of us will never see. Alongside digital downloads, they will be offering limited edition cd’s, cassettes, and even vinyl in some cases. All physical products will be hand wrapped/sewn/carved individually for every release.

Volume 1 comes from someone we haven’t heard too much from recently; firm TLOBF favourite Banjo or Freakout. The album will be released on October 12 (pre-order it here), download a taster ‘Over There’ below.

Other artists confirmed for the series include: Ganglians, Sonny Smith, Houses/Teen Daze, Phaseone, The Traditionist, (former TLOBF Podcast “New Artist Of The Month”) Aloha Tigers, Sunnybrook, Algodon Egipcio, Brothertiger, Tape Deck Mountain, Solter, and Black Glass.
