Behold Finders Keepers, a British record label, 40 years in the making, introducing fans of psychedelic, jazz, folk, funk, avant-garde and whacked-out movie musak to a lost world of undiscovered vinyl artifacts from the annals of alternative pop history. Catering to record collectors and DJ-producers alike with a huge emphasis on sample friendly soundscapes, rocksteady back-beats and primitive electronic experimentalism. Discerning purveyors of the bizarre and abnormal should expect the Japanese choreography records, space-age Turkish protest songs, Czechoslovakian vampire soundtracks, Welsh rare-beats, bubblegum folk, drugsploitation operatics, banned British crime thrillers and celebrity Gallic Martini adverts... presented on CD, 7" and traditional black plastic discs in authentic packaging. Following in the very same footsteps as the mind boggling "Music To Watch Girls Cry" and "Songs In The Key Of Death" mix CDs for Fat City Records and the original 5-star rated Finders Keepers compilation LP in 2001, Manc-based vinyl-vulture, recording artist and record producer Andy Votel enlists the skills of fellow B-Music DJ and Rare Disc Detective Doug Shipton to form a team of psychedelic librarians and cosmic-pop-quiz-elitists to run their new Twisted Nerve distant sister-label, leaving no progressive pebble unturned or record collection un-rifled. Future compilations and re-issues will feature collaborative curators such as David Holmes, Cherrystones and Bob Stanley and further contributions from mystery A- / B+ pop-celebrity fanatics of outsider music and ultra-rare bakelite discs. Finders Keepers is an 'accidental world music label' with a punk aesthetic and DJ friendly ethos which allows the desperate listener to sit back while we deliver schizoid cultural channel-hopping compilations and rocking-horse-shit & hen's-teeth re-releases to the comfort of your psych-starved living room...

SWEAT THE SUNSHINE IN!

Ideal for short breaks, long road trips, tall drinks and wide-screen couch potato salads your Finders Keepers holiday reps Andy Votel, Pete Mitchell and Doug Shipton manage to string entire sentences together while juggling exotic fuzz-ridden phonograms in celebration of sunstroke psychedelia, South American soap operas, pseudo Samba and the greatest ancient sporting festival of all time. Behold Olympic fever.

Rio is our muse this month and with a lukewarm Gulf Stream between their Mancunian tootsies the guardians of the Keepers Cottage take the sacred torch and shine it on a bunch of Italian sports library LPs, some anthemic Athenian psych and twenty tonnes of Brazilian obscurities uniting São Paulo's 50c bargain bins with record fair wall pieces. Peppered with token doses of tenuous sports terminology and the usual magnetic blend of the irreverent and the irrelevant the sunshine soldiers you have learned to love, cherish and tolerate aim to sooth, groove and prove that hockey sticks and drum sticks ain't that dissimilar if you squint your ears!
