Domino

Domino is an independent label founded in Putney, South West London by *a694357* and his partner Jacqui Rice in 1993. The label initially focused on American acts such as *Sebadoh*, *Pavement* or *Royal Trux* before signing British acts in the late '90s.

The label operates a US division, located in Brooklyn, which output was initially identified by its own catalogue number schemes, DOMUS then DNO (used until 2013), when the releases handled by the UK headquarters are identified by WIG (albums) and RUG (singles and EPs) catalogue numbers.

The company operating the label, *Warp Records*, diversified, establishing a publishing arm and a series of labels (*Double Six Recordings*, *Weird World Record Co.*, *Rephlex*, ...).

Experimental space rock band Flying Saucer Attack formed in Bristol, England in 1992. The core member of the group was David Pearce, with Rachel Brook also being a member for most of the band's lifetime.
Flying Saucer Attack became known for their quiet vocals and sheets of feedback, drawing comparisons to contemporary shoegazing bands like The Jesus and Mary Chain. Despite their experimental nature, they were able to build a small but enthusiastic fanbase.
What set Flying Saucer Attack apart was their approach to recording. They chose to record most of their music at home using a normal stereo system instead of traditional recording studios. This DIY approach gave them the freedom to experiment as much as they wanted and added a unique feel to their music.

Flying Saucer Attack release 'Instrumentals 2015', their first album in 15 years. Comprised of 15 fresh David Pearce solo performances recorded in characteristically lo-fi manner at home, using guitars only on tape and CD-R, 'Instrumentals 2015' is an album that will appeal both to FSA diehards and those wholly unfamiliar with the outfit's recorded output. The 15 tracks on 'Instrumentals 2015' present an impressionistic narrative which transports the listener through the excoriating dronescapes and rueful introspection of the album's early pieces to the more redemptive cadences of the its closing half. Given its sense of momentum, maintained through Pearce's thoughtful sequencing, this is an album that should be experienced in its entirety, the better to appreciate its deliberate emotional arc.LP - Double heavyweight vinyl. 4th side etched by Rachel Coe from FSA and Movietone.
