Nomark Selects V.1

Nomark Selects V.1 – a compilation of music previously unavailable publicly, featuring rare tracks from Amon Tobin, Two Fingers and Cujo is set for release on April 28 from Nomark Records. Plans for a limited edition vinyl version of this release will be announced shortly. 

 
Amon Tobin launched Nomark Records in 2019 with the breath-taking Fear In A Handful of Dust album. He also set up a yearly subscription service for fans called The Nomark Club, where each Nomark release is made available to members, often before it is officially released. 
 
In addition to the official releases, The Nomark Club releases preview and exclusive tracks and videos to subscribers. The Club operates on a 12-month rotation and each one is given a Volume number. The Club is now onto Volume 4 and there are currently about 40 secret tracks unavailable elsewhere, being enjoyed by subscribers, in addition to official releases. Become a member of The Nomark Club here.
 
After asking Club members if they’d like to share some of these secrets with the wider world and produce a lovely vinyl album as well, members voted on what tracks they’d like to see on a vinyl from the first two years of The Nomark Club. This is what they picked:
 
Side A
Babou The Dog – Cujo vs Two Fingers
Cruel Like Flint – Amon Tobin
Golden – Two Fingers
Yum Yum Rhythm – Two Fingers
Mighty Tetra – Amon Tobin
 
Side B
Early for Clink Street – Cujo
Nine Bars Back – Cujo
In Long Dark Grass – Amon Tobin
Deep In Time – Amon Tobin
Red Shift – Amon Tobin

    Amon Tobin

    Amon Tobin’s Nomark Records project is delighted to announce two brand new album releases this year. 

    Amon Tobin will release a single on April 2nd called Rise to Ashes, which is taken from the How Do You Live album, due for release later this year.

    This is Amon’s first new album since a double dose in 2019 brought you the #1 album Fear in A Handful of Dust and its sister album Long Stories. Or is it?
     
    Watchers of the Nomark label will have seen the reveal of several of Amon’s aliases over the last couple of years. In 2019 Only Child Tyrant released Time To Run, an electronic rock record which the LA Times concluded “rocks. Like, turn-it-up-to-11 rocks”, with the title track recently featuring on an episode of NBC’s thriller The Blacklist
     

    Figueroa’s debut The World As We Know It was released in 2020 to widespread acclaim with Kris Needs in PROG describing how “Tobin has taken folk’s ongoing revolution and pushed it another giant step forwards.” and TREBUCHET magazine asking, “Could The World As We Know It be the greatest album of 2020?”
     
    There has always been the promise from Nomark of new aliases and May 2021 will see the reveal of another.
     
    Stone Giants will be releasing a series of singles, beginning in May, with an album West Coast Love Stories following in early July. Amon talks about Stone Giants as “developing over some years much like my other aliases. I’d water it like a plant while trying to guide its shape over time but it had its own will too.”
