This is the part of the site where we will attempt to keep you informed
of all of LTCo's activities and developments. Occasionally we might use it to bring you information concerning the artists we are working with as well.
To begin with, please note that the subscription series is no longer available as we are once again out of E.A.R. picture disc LPs. Likewise, the next entry in the series will be the limited edition live Faust 2LP, which will be co-released with Poland's Audiotong hopefully during the first few months of 2008 (sometime after the 2CD version of the same album appears, unfortunately, due to the reasons noted in Faust's section of the Artists page). Beforehand, Andrew Liles' wonderful limited edition 'Auto Manipulator' LP is scheduled to finally appear. News on these releases can be seen in the appropriate section during the meantime.
We must also apologise to subscribers who've patiently waited for each entry in the series, by the way. When the scheme was first set up, our intention was to release the six vinyl albums far more rapidly than the present rate. Needless to say, problems always arise regardless of the plans. Whatever, once the six LPs have been released and reached the subscribers, a bonus release will then arrive as a means of thanking everybody for their patience.
The only other news, for now, mostly amounts to the fact that our general release schedule is actually very slowly falling back into place, with the already noted Michael Gira LP having been out since the beginning of 2007 and both Volga's 'Pomol' CD and Formication's 'Icons for a New Religion' also both now available, as well as, of course, the Faust 2CD. Next up will be the Sion Orgon CD and the much anticipated limited edition Nick Mott print and one-sided 7", then an as yet untitled compilation LP will follow and feature exclusive material by Steven Severin, Theme, Volga, Andrew Liles, Thighpaulsandra, Formication, Human Greed, Sleazy, Sion Orgon and a couple of others.
Beyond all of this, it is hoped Lumberton Trading Company will help once again promote at least two more concerts in Krakow during 2008, along with our good friends at AudioTong. Talk at present mostly amounts to getting Steven Severin over, then hopefully Consumer Electronics and DJ William Bennett, but other plans are also afoot. Watch this space...

June 2007
This is the part of the site where we will attempt to keep you informed
of all of LTCo's activities and developments. Occasionally we might useit to bring you information concerning the artists we are working with as well.
Firstly, and as noted last time, due to the fact we have managed to
procure a few more copies of both the E.A.R. and Thighpaulsandra picture disc LPs from our distributor, Cargo Records, the subscription series to our first 6 vinyl releases is once again open. Essentially, this means that both these releases and the next 4 are available for a reasonably discounted rate. The third entry in the series is, of course, Michael Gira's 'Songs for a Dog' LP, which was released a number of months ago. This will then be followed by a limited edition live Faust 2LP, which will be co-released with Poland's Audiotong during late Summer/Autumn 2007 and, hopefully not too after, Andrew Liles' wonderful limited edition 'Auto Manipulator' LP. For further information, and full details of the price, please write to us.
We must also apologise to subscribers who've patiently waited for each entry in the series, by the way. When the scheme was first set up, our intention was to release the six vinyl albums far more rapidly than the present rate. Needless to say, problems always arise regardless of the plans, unfortunately. Whatever, once the six LPs have been released and reached the subscribers, a bonus will then arrive as a means of thanking everybody for their patience.
Only other news, for now, mostly amounts to the fact that our general
release schedule is actually very slowly falling back into place, with
the already noted Michael Gira LP having been out since the beginning of the year and both Volga's 'Pomol' CD and Formication's 'Icons for a New Religion' both now available. Next up will be the Faust 2LP/2CD in late August/early September and the (terminally delayed) Nick Mott print. Beyond this, we also have Sion Orgon's new album to look forward to soon enough now and, indeed, Andrew Liles' wonderful 'Auto Manipulator' LP. An as yet untitled compilation LP will then follow these and feature exclusive material by Steven Severin, Theme, Volga, Andrew Liles, Miss del Real, Human Greed, Sleazy and a few others.
Other 'recent' enough news still worth sharing amounts to
LTCo's co-founder Hassni Malik deciding to leave the label during late 2006, although he'll still very much remain involved from its gently flapping (yet possibly broken?) wings, whether by default or by design.
