Shimmy Disc

Shimmy Disc is a New York City neo-psychedelic label founded in 1987 by Kramer. After years of hiatus, the label was reborn as Second Shimmy. Known for its unique and experimental sound, Shimmy Disc has been a pioneer in the music industry, showcasing talented artists and performers who push boundaries and defy genres.

With an impressive roster of *artists*, Shimmy Disc has consistently delivered groundbreaking music that challenges conventional norms. From alternative rock to avant-garde pop, the label's diverse range of releases have captivated audiences worldwide.

As a leading force in the underground music scene, Shimmy Disc continues to be at the forefront of innovation and creativity. With their commitment to supporting emerging talent and nurturing artistic freedom, they have established themselves as a trusted platform for musicians looking to make their mark on the industry.

A genre blur of decorative art punk psych overflow, mixed and mastered by Kramer on “Blessence Blue” Vinyl LP limited edition of 500. 

For fans of: Ween, Lee “Scratch” Perry, Dat Politics, Prince Buster, Captain Beefheart, Deerhoof, Thinking Fellars Union Local 282, Young Marble Giants, Jad Fair. 

As an energetic force in the downtown New York performance art noise scene for over fifteen years, Lumberob is releasing his debut solo LP - Language Learner - on Shimmy-Disc.

Having collaborated now for over 23 years, Kramer and Lumberob understand how to make rather majestic messes. This music is urgent madness, overfowingly decorative, lusciously spastic, with an unpredictably eclectic sonic vaudeville energy. 

Lumberob emerged from a year in Costa Rica with a bag full of pandemic recordings. As a rejuvenated yet still scrappy loop artist expanding his sound with synth bass and drum machines, yet still rooted in improvised vocal phrase looping and skanky guitar, Lumberob insists this album Language Learner to be a bold exercise in genre discovery or genre blur, proudly assuming its position in high contrast to other recent gorgeously crafted Shimmy-Disc releases.
