Land - If...

LAND
If...
2017 Kritika

Notes :
Land is great early 90's indie band from Bitola, Macedonia. In february 1991 they recorded their first tracks, a demo tape called ''4 Songs EP'', heavily inspired by UK indie & shoegaze sound from that period. In this early stages they worked as Green Grass Dreams.

Later they changed their name to Land and started working on their debut album.

Basti - B

BASTI
B
1991 Way Cool Records

Notes :
Basti was indie band from Norwich, UK, formed in the late 1980's by ex-members of The Herman Herd and Eva Valve. The two bands used to share a rehearsal space and were both very active in the Norwich Venue Campaign at around that time. Most of the members were also involved in The Waterfront. When Basti split up in 1993, four of the members went on to form techno band Globo.
They released one album and few 12'' singles. Their music can be described as mixture between Jesus Jones and Pop Will Eat Itself.

Nautical William - Love EP

NAUTICAL WILLIAM
Love EP
1991 Mojo Filter

Nautical William were formed in 1987, based around the song writing partnership of Damian Dingley and Jim Cemlyn-Jones. With Dave Oliver, drums, Pete Bray, bass and Bob Conga, percussion, the band established roots in Bristol, UK, playing at hallowed venues such as The Tropic, Stokes Croft, Thekla on the Bristol docks and Moles club, Bath. Their first single was release in 1990 “Love” followed by “Love House” in 1991. Teaming up with George Shilling of Soup Dragon’s/I’m Free fame the band were posed to release a 4 track EP but a lineup change prevented the recordings from ever being released. 1993 saw the launch of the Tubular Bellbottoms EP featuring a new percusive lineup including Ian Maclaren on bass, John Miller, drums. After a number of successful UK and European tours the band decided to call it a day. Sadly an album was never released, but there are rumours there’s something in the pipeline…

01. Love
02. She's Been Changing
03. Got To Find A Way
