Legendary independent label Wall of Sound is celebrating its 15th birthday.
The label, which has released records by artists including Propellerheads, Grace Jones, The Wiseguys, Mogwai, Shy Child, Reverend & The Makers, The Shortwave Set, Infadels and Royksopp, has come a long way since the first 'Give 'Em Enough Dope' compilations of 1994 and continues to go from strength to strength.
New signing Cosmo Jarvis is set to release his debut album 'Cosmo Jarvis' in November and in the new year Shy Child release their much anticipated follow up to 2007's critically acclaimed 'Noise Won't Stop', as well as the debut album from new signings Ocelot and a very special new signing shortly to be announced….
The celebration of the label’s 15 historic years will be marked with the return of legendary Halloween club night and fancy dress one off Carry on Screaming at The Den (formerly The End) with artists old and new, featuring live performances from Mpho, who’ll be just back from touring with the Noisettes, plus DJs Jon Carter, Will White (Propellerheads), Infadels, Shy Child, Ocelot and Mark Jones alongside some very special guests, on Saturday 31st October.
The event kicks off a roadblock week for the seminal label, with Royksopp and Reverend & the Makers both performing in London on 5 November as WoS artists including Mpho and Cosmo Jarvis create a sound clash of Wall of Sound tours across the UK (full details below).
Head honcho Mark Jones will continue a series of special parties around the world with a Wall of Sound 15th Anniversary event in Hong Kong, on the 14th November.
An exclusive ‘Where There's A Wall...There's a Way’ iTunes digital compilation is released in November, meanwhile a series of exclusive radio appearances for Mark Jones beckon, including a takeover of Eddie Temple-Morris’ The Remix show on XFM’s on 6 November. This follows a keynote at next week’s Amsterdam Dance Event on Fri 23rd October, which will see Mark playing his all-time favourite 15 records and explaining why they mean so much to him.
There will also be a re-issue of the seminal Propellerheads album ‘Decksandrumsandrockandroll’ with added bonus tracks and videos early in the New Year alongside a limited edition special version of Grace Jones’ Hurricane album.
Much more is yet to be announced including Wall 2 Wall, a mouth watering magazine tie up featuring Wall of Sound’s roster covering their all-time favourite Wall of Sound tracks.
Said Head Honcho Mark Jones: “What happened??????!”
