A massive massive thanks to everyone who bought our new album this week.

We’re happy to report it went straight into the top ten in the iTunes UK dance chart, and into the top twenty in the US chart, which is pretty amazing for a small independent act like us.
The limited edition vinyl / CD / MP3 packs available from our shop are selling out fast and will probably disappear in the next week or so.

So thanks again to everyone who’s still buying music in this day & age.
We have no label behind us, no mysterious benefactors and no secret stash of cash – everything you see from BMT is made and paid for by us and us alone. The money you spend on our music goes straight back into the studio to make more music. So thanks very much. You’re making the next album possible.

Our new album, ‘Love is the Devil’, is out now on vinyl, CD & mp3 in all good stores. Get it now and help us pay the studio rent and feed the cats.

If you buy the vinyl from www.blumarten.com/shop you’ll get the CD, all the mp3s and stickers included free of charge.
Even if you don’t play vinyl you can still stick it on your wall like I do.

A big thanks to everyone who joined in the retweet giveaway. We’ll be doing more freebies soon so watch this space.

Rob Graff is an old friend of ours. Leo & I first ran into him around 1997 when he was a mere youth of 19. He was making some absolutely great, forward-thinking d&b tracks which we really loved, and some of which found their way into Blame’s record box.

At one point he did even come to visit for a weekend so we could engineer one of his tracks for him. Unfortunately, the feat of chaining up an old mac with cubase, an EMU, an atari and several hardware synths etc proved too much and the collaboration was never finished.
Despite this, Rob continues to produce in various genres, particularly house and broken beat, and his productions are well worth picking up.

Something that you should also add to your list of things-to-do is subscribe to his monthly podcasts, and not just because they regularly feature some of our tracks. The selection is always bang on, ranging from deepest Detroit gems to heartbreaking obscure soul classics to bizarre ambient to complex drum & bass, and every podcast is different. These mixes are one of the few things I can listen to again and again without ever getting bored, so I strongly suggest you give your ears a treat and get downloading.

Grab the latest podcast and the archives here.  Absolutely essential listening.
