It's a label which exists to give albums the release they deserve. Some classic, some brand new. It's also an occasional podcast about great records.
It's our product. Teemill take their cut and we get to hold zero stock. Win win.

Somehow, despite its legendary indiepop status, I've never heard a single note of this. Looking forward to putting that right. @needlemythology.bsky.social

In 1992 I was living in London, alone and very unhappy. Not sure how I missed this album about being alone in London and very unhappy but I did and now @needlemythology.bsky.social have re-released it and I know it’s my album of the year even though it’s more than 30 years old.
