Latitudes [label]
----WONDERBAND----
Ten Years After
![Latitudes [label]. Latitudes is a series of limited edition sessions recorded at the legendary Southern Studios in London.
We came up with the idea of our Latitudes series partly in honour of John Peel and the great work he did championing so many bands with his BBC Radio One sessions, and partly in reverence of the fact that Southern initially started out life as a recording studio in the late 1970's.
Many incredible bands have recorded at Southern - Crass, Sonic Youth, The Fall, PW Long, Fugazi, Therapy, PJ Harvey, Lee Perry, Bauhaus, Big Black, Shellac, Babes In Toyland, The Jesus And Mary Chain, Ministry, My Bloody Valentine... the list is virtually endless. However, in more recent years not so many of the bands we work with have had the chance to record at Southern Studios, albeit remaining a very active studio. With Latitudes we hope to redress this balance; reaffirming the bond between our studio and label.
Latitudes began as a simple concept, to put the bands we work with in touch with our studio and to release the resulting material. Swiftly we agreed it would be a great idea t o offer our favourite bands - many of them passing through London as part of their tour - the opportunity to spend some time recording something spontaneous, collaborative, fun o r experimental in our studio. Whatever the band wants to achieve in a few days essentially - something truly transient, imaginative and unique. Something we hoped to capture in t he aesthetic of the resulting record - something with boundless creative scope and freedom - specific to a certain time and space - something with latitude.
Another factor behind the Latitudes series was our impetus to create something unique and beautifully packaged, in limited runs, distributed primarily through smaller, independent distributors, mail orders, web shops, and retailers - basically something special for the people who love and support music, in these times of soulless mass production. The artwork for each one of our Latitude releases will be specifically embellished by the band. Cult designer Stephen O'Malley has provided us with a wonderful template for the series - think smoky wavy cloud-scapes and creatures of apocrypha. On top of this visceral odyssey of a cardboard CD casing, we ask our bands to design an artisan sleeve motif and insert, bearing the details of the session and a photograph either from the tour or session which best symbolizes the spirit in which the session was recorded.
We're very much at the start of our adventure with Latitudes right now, we hope that you will join us for the journey; latitudes by name and latitudes by nature.](https://sun1-16.userapi.com/s/v1/if1/t_RO_f75adTwjorSTF3ELV7U6fkHvzZNBxFxzHqa0tSfdZgdSpnft8R_d95YGHfuA4tff-sK.jpg?quality=96&crop=0,0,500,500&as=32x32,48x48,72x72,108x108,160x160,240x240,360x360,480x480&ava=1&cs=480x480 "Latitudes [label].
