Reviews

"Shows that there is far more to their roster of artists that the title suggests, Frequently excellent. To provide just a few examples: the mesmeric chill-out of Ultramarine, the almost-Spectoresque arrangement of the Wake's Town of 85 Lights, Blue Orchid's exultant Lover of Nothing, and Thick Pigeon's maverick way with a pop tune" (Leonard's Lair, 6/03); "LTM has quite quickly become a very excellent record label. As far as documenting scenes, they have very few equals, and their packaging is top-notch, loaded with historical information and an amazing amount of unreleased tracks. Black Music is a wonderful little sampler that documents not only LTM's wonderful past, but it also gives hints of what's coming soon. A wonderful document from a label that is fast becoming essential" (mundanesounds.com, 6/03); "Soothes your post-existentialist hangover" (Glasgow Herald, 7/03)
