Once a month on solipsistic NATION<\/strong> I showcase a record label that is putting out such amazing releases that I am compelled to share them with you. I like to think of it as a form of public service.<\/p>\n

On today\u2019s show we\u2019re going to hear select tracks from Herb Recordings<\/a>. We\u2019ll also chat with Craig Murphy, the man behind Herb Recordings.<\/p>\n

Herb Recordings is is an independent record label based in Scotland and while they\u2019re not an electronic record label per se<\/i>, they release enough of it that I feel like I can claim them as one of our own.<\/p>\n

I first took note of Herb Recordings when I would I listen to music from the likes of Skytree<\/a>, Kingbastard<\/a> and Shamanic Technology<\/a> and I would think to myself, \u201cthis is great stuff!\u201d And then I run off and quickly Google them and the trail always lead back to Herb Recordings.<\/p>\n

Last December, Solipsism<\/a> came on the show with his live set<\/a> that was recorded at Nice n Sleazy<\/a> in Glasgow. Craig Murphy is Solipsism and he\u2019s also the man behind Herb Recordings and I asked if he\u2019d be interested coming on the show. He joins us today from his home in Glasgow to talk with us about his label and the release of Herb Recordings excellent compilation album, Verdant<\/a><\/i>.<\/p>\n

Next month we\u2019ll showcase Waveform Records<\/a>. They put out all those great ambient dub and trance compilation albums we love so much and they also happen to be based in my backyard here in San Diego.<\/p>\n

Join us again next week for a special mix from Praketh<\/a> of the blueOrb<\/a> podcast.<\/p>\n
