The end of the year is
almost here! I hope you've all been good and liked our facebook page
to be in with a chance of winning some free CDs in time for
Christmas? Or at the very least, cast your vote in our reader's
choice poll?
If not, there is still
time!
Our
first free digital compilation is due new years day, but it is that
time of year when lots of people are feeling generous, including
Belgian electro label Alfa Matrix who
have released their second 'Matrix Downloaded' compilation for
free (or pay-what-you-want),
via
the label's Bandcamp page.
Note that you can also get the first volume right
here on Bandcamp,
again for
free (or pay-what-you-want).
That's
all the plugging done for this week, here's what else we had...
We
kicked things off with the monthly column from End: The DJ and his
pick of the pops. We featured reviews of the latest albums from The Causticles, Beastmilk, Darkhaus, Starbass, Remete, and Petrol Hoers.
As well as news from Combichrist and Tapewyrm.
On
Facebook it has been a little sparse, so we've been keeping things
festive by posting some great alternative Christmas tunes from the
likes of Erasure, Unheilig, Human Drama, Billy Idol and Attrition.
That's
it for this week. Keep your eyes peeled on Monday as we announce the
winners of the CD prize draw. But in the mean time here's an
uplifting story from William Burroughs.
