Accidental

Accidental Records is the overall name for Matthew Herbert's family of labels, incorporating Soundslike and, until the beginning of 2004, Lifelike. It was set up in January 2000 to administer and oversee the release and distribution of Herbert's music after all the labels he'd previously recorded for ceased to exist.
The label Accidental Records, founded by Matthew Herbert in January 2000, serves as a platform for his music releases. It encompasses other labels such as Soundslike and Lifelike (until 2004). The establishment of this label came about when Herbert's previous recording labels became defunct. With a focus on administering and distributing his own music, Accidental Records has become an integral part of Matthew Herbert's musical journey.
Accidental Records, headed by renowned artist Matthew Herbert, emerged in January 2000 with a mission to ensure the continued release and distribution of his music.

Back In Stock

Classic albums’ may be an overused term but is entirely warranted here with the reissues of this pair of house music long-players from Matthew Herbert's extensive back catalogue, getting a release on triple vinyl his own Accidental label. 2001’s much celebrated Bodily Functions has appeared in many Album Of The Decade lists, whilst 1998’s Around The House set the benchmark for a new more considered approach to dance music production that sounds as crisp today as when it first hit the late 90’s dance floors.

There have of course been many brilliant house albums since Bodily Functions and Around The House, many of them influenced by them, but there is a distinctive, timeless quality in the sounds and words these songs were made from. Those sounds include the distinctive voice of Matthew’s former wife Dani Siciliano as well as long time collaborator, the late pianist Phil Parnell, human blood flow, kitchen utensils, bones, domestic appliances, teeth and laser eye surgery. Indeed, Matthew’s now legendary Personal Contract for the Composition of Music (PCCOM) for which he is now famed, was considered radical at the time.
