FREE LABEL SAMPLER DOWNLOAD

Tangled Talk Records is a small independent label based in London, UK which is owned and operated by Andrej Presern. Since its inception in February 2008, the label has built a strong reputation within the UK’s alternative/hardcore scene for its role in ﬁnding and championing exciting and challenging homegrown artists such as Bastions, Kerouac, Goodtime Boys, The Long Haul, Pariso, Battle For Paris, Let’s Talk Daggers and Veils; and for releasing records with a strong commitment to physical formats and creative packaging.

Although often perceived as a ‘hardcore label’, the past year has also seen Tangled Talk work with an increasingly eclectic range of artists, including Leicester-based electronic/dance producer, Blak Nite (who’s debut remix album, Versionen was released in May) and US spoken word/folk/“talk music” duo, Listener; who’s last two albums are due  to be released by Tangled Talk Records in the UK and Europe in November.
