Half Speed Master

Released in January 1974, ‘Here Come The Warm Jets’ was Brian Eno’s debut solo release following his departure from Roxy Music. The album draws on both his glam and prog roots but its experimental nature also made it quite unlike anything that’d ever come before. It was also to prove a huge influence on the best of the British punk and post-punk bands that followed it. This new gatefold 2LP vinyl edition of ‘Here Come The Warm Jets’ is presented over two 180GM discs which play at 45rpm for optimum sound quality. High resolution mastering from the best known sources and half-speed cutting were supervised by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios.

For fans of Juicy J, Beck, Kool Keith, David Crosby, Andrew WK, Sweet, DJ Screw, Lee "Scratch" Perry, "Half Speed Mastered" is unreal album of disparate influences and stream of consciousness pop cult lyrics. Aleister X has been releasing underground and digital release since the mid 2000s, but "Half Speed Mastered" is his full length debut and the best thing the performer has done yet. Confusing but intriguing on first listens, this album grows on you and gets its hooks into your brain like nothing else. Bouncy pop hooks meet chopped n screwed beats and big picture lyrics, all with a seedy celebration of the Los Angeles vibe. Give the songs a chance and you will not be disappointed.

One could easily make the case for designating the Masters Apprentices as the best Australian rock band of the '60s. Featuring singer Jim Keays and songwriter/rhythm guitarist Mick Bower, the band's earliest recordings combined the gritty R&B/rock of Brits like the Pretty Things with the minor-key melodies of the Yardbirds…

‘Ace Of Spades’ - the title track of Motörhead's 1980 iconic, game changing album isn’t just one of the greatest hard rock songs ever written - it has truly become a lifestyle anthem for several generations of rockers, metalheads, punks, bikers, athletes, rebels, outcasts, and freethinkers all around the world. Few songs in modern history can instantly ignite the adrenaline of music fans the way the song’s opening dirty bass riff, and drum roll can. From zero to 100 mph in a matter of seconds. That speaker-destroying opening riff is unstoppable. And the song altered the course of hard rock…forever.
