Cybore \/ Box Set Go<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Matt owns a lot more boxsets than me:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

These Trojan sets, compiled by Steve Barrow, were the most accessible way to get into Black Ark stuff in the late eighties. They foreshadowed Barrow’s later work with the Blood & Fire label – incorporating great selection, sound quality and design. And also the excellent Arkology 3 CD set on Island.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Sort of “Occult Roots of Big Beat<\/a>” set, featuring mad breakbeat tunes from across the board. I got this ridiculously cheap (I think 6 quid?) from Berwick Street in the mid 90s.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Test Dept’s first LP with grainy photo inserts. This must have been the first box set I ever bought, in the mid eighties. Ordered via the back pages of “Record Collector” magazine. Also the first record I ever picked up from a Post Office depot, something which seems second nature now! Some if not all of this was produced by Genesis P-Orridge. Another Some Bizzare classic.<\/p>\n

This used to be ubiquitous – peaking out of people’s record shelves at you when you visited them for the first time. Shorthand for a particular background and all-encompassing worldview which many of us have now jettisoned most of – but the traces remain. Lots of 4o year old anarchopunk “sleepers” out there, biding their time.<\/p>\n

This set includes a whopping great booklet featuring the tragic tale<\/a> of Stonehenge Free Festival founder Wally Hope<\/a>. And a full colour poster by Gee Vaucher<\/a> (which mine is missing, boo!)<\/p>\n

I had this on tape for years and then finally found a copy in Reckless Records in Islington (RIP) for a good price in the late 90s.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
