Daga Daga Daga [LP]

After Swell Maps, Epic Soundtracks and Jowe Head recorded material in 1981 that led to the 1982 Rough Trade single “Rain Rain Rain,” but ran out of money before they could mix the album they had recorded. Now mixed by Jowe Head from the rediscovered master tapes, Daga Daga Daga is full of intense rhythmic pieces shaped by Burundi drumming, New York no wave acts like The Contortions and Teenage Jesus & The Jerks, and German records by DAF, SYPH and Holger Czukay.

A previously unreleased LP issued as a Record Store Day 2024 exclusive (official RSD UK release), with sleeve notes by Jowe Head.
