Label GB

An independent record label, XL Recordings was launched in 1989 by Richard Russell and his team. Originally an off-shoot of City Beat Records, XL quickly became known for releasing rave and dance music. Over the years, XL has grown to become one of the leading labels in the industry, managing a roster of talented artists including *Leah Riches*, *a6001996*, and *a60243*. In 1996, XL officially incorporated and became the copyright-holder of its releases. To celebrate their 15th anniversary in 2004, XL launched their XLXV series of re-issues. Today, they continue to thrive as a pioneering force in the music world.

Ever since Oscar released his debut 12" The Ongoing Significance Of Steel And Flesh on his own Diagonal imprint back in 2011, people have been getting pretty damn excited about this dashing young, good looking man and the warped electronic music he makes. After a series of killer releases, some on point remixes, water melons, wooing women, drunken nts shows, buzz cuts, rave sticks, lighters, a quick wrestle with Steve Albini and posting his e-mail address worldwide he's finally dropped his debut long player Sport and it's a gold medal winner easy. With it he's managed to squeeze together his incredible skills into a set of electronic post-punk delights full of weird and wonderful noises and rhythms, on point vocals and jerky beats. It really sounds like nothing else out there at the moment which is why you need it.
