Electrelane's Murray, Octopus Project Cut Too Pure 7"s
UK label Too Pure-- home to Stereolab, Electrelane, Future of the Left, and Scout Niblett, among others-- has inducted a few new members into its monthly 7" singles club.
The January face of the Too Pure Singles Club is chamber popper Anni Rossi, while February brings a split offering between French-born Frànçois (a sometime member of Camera Obscura's live band) and Ray Rumours, aka Electrelane's Ros Murray. (If the Rossi and Rumours singles sound familiar, they were previously mentioned here.) Finally, for now at least, March heralds the arrival of an entry from Austin's the Octopus Project, the crew's first release outside of North America.
As usual, these singles contain two exclusive, previously unreleased tracks and are limited to an international run of 500 copies. Apart from a few select record stores, the only way to get your hands on one of them is through an annual subscription obtained here. Scope the tracklists below.
Anni Rossi:
A1 Wheelpusher
B1 Arctic Swing
Ray Rumours / Frànçois:
A1 Ray Rumours: "Mr. Bear"
B1 Frànçois: "Swimmers/Drifters"
The Octopus Project:
A1 Wet Gold
B1 Moon Boil
