TRISTRAM CARY. A fabulous Trunk retrospective is a coming, I've just not quite worked out what to call it yet. But it will include unreleased soundtracks, sonic experiments, cut-ups, electronics, excerpts from "Trios" and some more extraordinary musical business. Here are some exciting pictures to be going on with.

 
John Baker

PRIMITIVE LONDON. Shock horror, it's the legendary underground sleaze-fest of a documentary released in 1965. All music by Basil Kirchin, and this is what will be released. It's quite strange. And bits of it are really strange. More news and unpleasant London imagery will follows real soon.

The Guardian REVIEW OF THIS SITE

DAWN OF THE DEAD on vinyl.

MANTRA

Music, nostalgia and sex. We deal with these three important commodities, and try and mix them up as often as possible. So in the past we've had a pretty sexy and noisy time. To date we have released some records, dealt in old porno posters, published some books, performed some theatre and started some peculiar trends.

On this site you have an opportunity to explore our little world, and maybe communicate with us too. There are things for sale, things to look at and things to hear, so please join in. Trunk is open to all sorts of suggestions, comments and abuse; so CONTACT US.

Presented!
