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...

Brocks Warriors On Edge Of Teimar (and other Swiss cheese orbs)

That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind, and one colossal wait between transmissions for all regular listeners of The Finders Keepers Radio Show! Having taken a brief hiatus during the April showers while European record fairs collide with Record Store Day chaos your faithful cosmonautical cowboys Votel, Mitchell and Shipton return to your discerning diaphragms with an outerstellar space rock special of epic interplanetary proportions.

This bumper edition of our regular proxi-pop pilgrimage is recorded live on lunar location beamed to you directly from the Keepers Cockpit combining unpolished nuggets of black plastic debris in a show that traces, misplaces and erases the history of the flexi-genre known as space rock (while reducing it to various alien strains of Gallic Galaxian psych, Morricone moonshakers, Swiss spatial awareness and Mancunian martian invasions amongst other tenuous intergalactic alliterations). Putting our Tandy teleportation tank to the test comes a wide cast of very special guests including return visitors Jane "Amber Light" Weaver and Matt "Toast Of London" Berry sharing their loves for specific synth fuelled 70's sci-fi. Meanwhile, elsewhere of our vinyl vessel, astro-probes AV, PM and DS welcome two undisputed heavyweight pioneers of genre defining space sonic schallplatten on board in the form of Swiss computer jazzer Bruno Spoerri and Hawkwind principal pilot HRH Dave Brock.

Spanning over 50 earth years of recorded spazio guff, combining jazz, folk, punk, musique CON-crete and unidentified OSTs, Finders Keepers lunar cafeteria caters for fans of Bananamoon and Barbarella alike proving that patience is a conquering virtue and absence makes the heart grow Fonda.
