Folklore tapes has been quietly but prolifically pumping out some of the bestĀ tapes, CDRs, LPs, sound tracking films and doing whatever else the hell they want for over a decade now. The label describes itself as:
"an ongoing research and heritage project exploring the folkloric arcana of the farthest-flung recesses of Great Britain and beyond. Traversing the mysteries, myths, nature, magic, topography and strange phenomena of the old counties through abstracted musical reinterpretation and experimental visuals"
And they have cooked up something special for The Lubber Fiend!!!
Folklore Tapes will be exploring the lore and legend surrounding the Lubber Fiend, mischievous house spirit/demon who is also known as Hob, Brownie, Lob and many more.
Folklore Tapes have assembled four creatives from the collective: Bridget Hayden, Sam McLoughlin, Dan Bridgwood-HillĀ and David Chatton Barker.
The quartet will explore the Lubber through optical light wizardry, automated sonic spectacles and homemade instrumental jams.

Tape extortion butts beaks with blunt utensils and toolbox brass. Collated masses of earthy drones take flight through an unpracticed mire of wailing metal and form the basis for an array of wordless folk-tales, none-songs and melodies that, once heard, are quickly undone but not so soon forgotten
No one turned away for lack of funds.
