Tiny homespun record label and publisher based on the Powys/Shropshire border (UK). Music, pictures and words by Eric Loveland Heath and others. /
Had enormous fun watching Melt It! The Film of the Ice Man last Saturday in Birmingham. Edited and co-produced by the wonderful @gingerbeardmark.bsky.social. Even got a copy of the book by Robert Wringham. Deep!
@nightjrrs.bsky.social any idea what type of moth this is? Rather fond of my bathroom window.

Speed of Life - Sign-Off Music for U.S. Television Stations Available 03/07/2026. plentywenlockrecords.bandcamp.com/album/sign-o...
A bit of news... Our Shropshire Number Stations project will be returning once again to the Shropshire Hills. This time it will be part of the amazing Love Drop, a private invite only festival held at a suitably secret location within the Shire. This marks the first scheduled broadcast this year.
We've got our 'Sign-Off Music for U.S. Television Stations' release coming out a week Friday. The concept has gone down really well, but I don't suppose anyone here might have an idea on who else might be interested in reviewing or featuring it?
