20/04/10Nathan Persad & 286 Show on 27th April!

The ever popular Nathan Persad Show returns to the Fox & Firkin, 316 Lewisham High Street, SE13, on Tuesday 27th of April. The 286 are a new project co-piloted by Nathan and the excellent Spencer Hannabuss. Along with guitar and drums, the line-up includes a string quartet, making for a very warm and interesting sound, much lacking from the usual agit pop currently drowning the stages of London. Get along and enjoy what will be a fun and musically rewarding night. Entry Free, 7.30pm till late.

Nathan and John live at Fox
25/03/10Free to do what I want any old time!

Yes, brothers and sisters, after much necessary change behind the scenes at MHM, the shakles are off and we can finally fulfill our dreams and original remit to have no limits. To not release a particular style. To release scratchy lo-fi demos, to release shiny over-produced epics, to release poetry, books, art and everything else of interest that strays past us that we can put in front of a wider audience.

Albums from a number of new artists are due over the summer, plus singles from Nathan Persad (pictured above in evangelical posture) and John Ashdown (also pictured above to his left with guitar). The Won Ton Blues Band will release their debut EP, first of a strange two part concept. And Christy is getting back to recording another album after spending the last few months producing for other artists.

Time for some monkey magic and cloud surfing! :-)

27/08/09Honeycube sign to MileHighMusic

South East London power rock quartet Honeycube will be releasing their debut album through MileHighMusic in October. The band previously featured their track Song For Nell on the well received 2006 MHM compilation Replugged in New Cross. A stunning live band they are also able to focus their dynamics to acheive stellar soundscapes in the studio.
"catchy and infectious... it soon becomes clear that the craftsmanship of these songs belie the punk insensibilities that are to influence. There are no scruffy fade outs or lacklustre intros - every song starts and ends with well measured and often surprising capitulation... keeps you listening to the end... There are plenty of angry songs here with bile, blood and sweat but not too many tears." Gravity Guide

MHMDD00022 - 26/07/10

Determined to leave behind the days of 2-minute pop singles with the lyrics "yeah" and "girl" in them, Streatham's Nathan Persad is releasing a 6-minutes pop single... with the word "girl" in the title and "yeah" shouted over and over again.
That, folks, is "Girl On The Spectrum", a double A-side with the far catchier and accessible tribute to Prince "Lisa Part II"

Recorded 2004, a very limited release in mid 2005, London City Dreams & it's B-side Dellow Street are both home demos, but both being strong songs and unlikely to be re-recorded in the near future, it makes sense to issue them here exclusively on the MHM download store in their stark unpolished maximum charm versions, enjoy!

A lilting ballad, this song finds Mark in more reflective and soulful territory than the previous single, whilst still retaining all the first-hand honesty you would expect from London's only real troubadour.

A gem, enjoy...

ZenDevil Take Me DownMHMCDS001 - June 04

Zen's debut single wears its influences very firmly on its sleeve while still managing to sound highly fresh and contemporary. Like all the best musicians who pay homage to the work of previous artists, Zen don't simply replicate the sound of their influences they build and expand upon them. What they've produced is a heady blend of folk, punk and psychedelia for a 21st century audience. - Jaspre Bark

Counting for half of their double-A side single release, Poor Little Rich Girl with its hint of summery hues is quite unlike anything else scanning the current music radar. It is Tuesday Heartbreaks choice of inspiration over recreation that really allows them to shine, in a way that no other could. - TSM Radio
