Fresh from completing his 18 month residency at Pitt Rivers Museum and Oxford Contemporary Music, Nathaniel Mann embarks upon a new residency at Elektronmusikstudion in Stockholm. He'll be in Sweden from 25 April to 16 May with an open remit and a recording studio at his disposal.

We must offer our hearty congratulations and a big shout-out to fellow label Woodland Recordings, who release a new ultra limited edition box-set of five CDRs, in exceptionally elaborate packaging, to celebrate their 50th release. 50 - the beautiful physical object - is already sold out, but you can still download the entire audio content for the absolute bargain price of 5 euros from Bandcamp.

A great article by top radio presenter and journalist Richard Haugh on BBC News Suffolk, about Nathaniel Robin Mann's Rough Music preview at the Pacitti Company's Sound Lounge, has triggered a media frenzy. It made the BBC's national Entertainment and Arts landing page, only to be bumped off the top spot by Kate Bush and her ill-timed return from exile (and no, I didn't get tickets either).

We were delighted to be asked to collaborate with the Pacitti Company to curate an evening of music and discussion at the Sound Lounge in Ipswich. As you have probably gathered, nepotism is central to our working model and we obviously volunteered one of our best mates for this opportunity. Luckily for all concerned, we suggested Nathaniel Mann.
