Munster

Munster Records is a Spanish label founded by CEO [a1905630] and [a1187670]. The label originated in 1983 as a fanzine called "[l103736]", which later evolved into the renowned Munster Records. As a division of Distrolux SL, Munster Records is closely affiliated with sister label Vampi Soul. With their expertise in compilation and production, they have consistently delivered exceptional music to their audience.

Based in Santurtzi - Santurce (Bizcaia - Vizcaya), [a1728375] manages Munsterama distribution under Weirdo Musika, S.L. company. While operating independently from Munster Records, this separate entity plays an integral role in the success of the label.

If you are looking for high-quality music that spans various genres and eras, look no further than Munster Records. Their dedication to discovering unique talent and delivering exceptional releases has made them a trusted name among music enthusiasts worldwide.

“Algo Salvaje” is an anthology devoted to a rich period when hundreds of bands appeared all over the world and, after paying attention to what their US and British contemporaries were doing, found their own way to vent their teenage rebellion through loud guitars. With amazing results! After three previous volumes in our series “Algo Salvaje” devoted to the Spanish nuggets, this new instalment explores the darkest, neglected and rebellious side of Peruvian beat. 

Many of the 14 tracks are reissued for the first time, including extremely hard-to-find records, and are mostly taken from the Discos MAG catalog, owned, and directed by Manuel A. Guerrero. Guerrero's intuition and talent for business allowed his artists to be given creative freedom. Despite initially feeling challenged by the unusual songs that the bands proposed to him, several musicians of the time agree that he ended up giving in and betting on them. 

As a consequence, the MAG studio was always very busy, working as a sound lab for musicians and engineers to learn how to record these new sounds properly. Songs were recorded weekly, including originals and versions that were often better than the original. The tracks chosen for the occasion, a selection filtered strictly by their musical value, adhere to the rules of the classic nugget genre while demonstrating the permeability of garage sound and its inevitable evolution at the turn of the decade (1965-1970) through mixes that embraced psychedelia, soul, beat and tropical arrangements. Epic and pretty wild. Just the kind of material that this record label usually handles. This compilation includes notes by genre-expert Marco Caballero (freneticos.net) featuring the original record labels and artist photos.
