about

We are thrilled to reissue one of our most sought-after compilations from 2011, entitled The Hidden Tapes. A Compilation of Minimal Wave from Around the World ‘79-‘85, The Hidden Tapes features rare, unreleased, and licensed tracks from as far as Japan and the former Yugoslavia. Most of the bands on this compilation recorded on 4-track tape in their bedroom studios, and several of them went further to collaborate by sending cassette tapes through the mail. The sounds on this record range from raw, proto-industrial to naive, danceable, Belgradian new wave, to filmic synthesizer music to more complex, vocal-driven, melodic synthpop.
The Hidden Tapes presents songs from Danton’s Voice, Oskarova Fobija, The Fast Set, Sympathy Nervous, Pas De Deux, Unovidual + Tara Cross, SS-Say, Robert Lawrence + Mark Phillips, Kym Amps and Reservé, all lovingly remastered. This reissue of 999 numbered copies, is pressed on 180-gram black vinyl, and housed in a heavy printed jacket accompanied by a printed inner jacket with photos and info. Thank you to everyone involved in making this happen. Release date: May 2nd, 2023. Pre-order is now available.

“Founded by Veronica Vasicka in 2005, Minimal Wave has done the invaluable work of historical recovery, unearthing an entire subgenre for a new generation. Emerging from late 70s-80s postpunk and created by a loose network of likeminded musicians in home studios scattered across the world, Minimal Wave found the impulses of the early avant-gardes reanimated with help of analog synths.” -Mark Owens ... more
