By | Published on Tuesday 7 September 2010

The Big Pink’s Milo Cordell (who is also the boss man at Merok Records) has put together the latest compilation in !K7’s ‘Tapes’ series. The album is due for release on 18 Oct.

Cordell explained: “Doing this mix was a complete pleasure because I grew up recording mixes for myself and friends. My goal has always been the same: to make something that transports you somewhere completely different. There’s a DIY aspect to most of the sixteen tracks. Many are nothing more complicated than a person tinkering on a laptop. I imagine 90% of music on the compilation was made in someone’s bedroom. That’s always appealed to me and my label, Merok. We’ve always championed this generation of musicians that make music in their bedrooms. It’s where people feel most at home”.
