Daniel Avery shares 'Dusting For Smoke' alongside new track 'Lone Swordsman,' a contemplative, considered cut made in tribute to the legendary Andrew Weatherall. Both tracks are available digitally now, and proceeds from ''Lone Swordsman'' Bandcamp sales will be donated to Amnesty International for four weeks.

"I was in my studio the morning I heard about Andrew Weatherall's passing. The track Lone Swordsman is what formed that day. Andrew was a hero, a friend and someone who regularly reminded us all how it should be done, not to mention the funniest fucker around. Thank you for everything." - Daniel Avery

No tricks, just treats!

For every order made until the end of today (Sunday 1st November) on vinyl, t-shirts or sweatshirts, we''re giving away a free gift worth ?10.

Ahead of the release of his collaborative album with Alessandro Cortini this Friday, Daniel Avery joins us in the warmth of the Phantasy Facebook group this evening at 8PM GMT for a very special Q&A. Your opportunity to ask him anything - from the making of ''Illusion of Time'' and studio questions, to signing to Phantasy and Street Fighter.

We're getting behind the #loverecordstores campaign, in order to support independent record stores during the COVID-19 crisis. No matter where you buy your music, never has it been more important to support independent artists and labels, who are suddenly facing a more uncertain future than ever. Phantasy is rooted in the spirit of community and artistic freedom, and strongly believe in these principles. As a label, our own webstore remains open and running as usual, and we hope it continues to be a space for musical discovery.

At this complex and unpredictable time, we have plenty of new music to share. Tomorrow sees the release of Daniel Avery and Alessandro Cortini''s much-anticipated collaborative LP, ''Illusion of Time''. Or, a great way to get a taste of nearly one-hundred Phantasy releases so far is our ongoing ''Lucky Dip'', through which you can grab three vinyl at random from our back catalogue for just ?10.

We''re offering free postage and packaging on orders over ?20 for the next two days. We''re still shipping worldwide and posting out orders every day!

Come on over, we're always open.

''Illusion of Time'' is the first full-length collaboration between Daniel Avery & Alessandro Cortini, out now. Two contemporary masters of electronic music, the album is a beguiling and unexpected collusion of two sounds. Written remotely over a number of years, with little in the way of deadline or format in mind, the result is an enlightening and absorbing celebration of patience, ambience and sonic release. 

"Both men fill their works with a conscious emptiness, a kind of awareness of the fact that, a lot of the time, electronic music is not a spectator sport but an immersive form; a listener needs space to see themselves within it." - The Fader

An update from Daniel Avery on ''Love + Light''.

"Hello friends,

I am pleased to share with you that Love + Light will finally be arriving on vinyl on 27th November. I know that many of you have been waiting patiently, and although the delay in the production process was inevitable given the current circumstances, that patience is nonetheless very much appreciated.

When I decided to release Love + Light, I was determined for the record to appear across two sides of one record. This was how the music was designed to be experienced, in two distinct and complementary chapters, and it also made the album more affordable. Unfortunately, this meant having to remove a few tracks in order for it to fit the vinyl format. At the time, I decided to sacrifice the section of Darlinnn, Dream Distortion and Katana. I love these tracks as much as the others on Love + Light but they undoubtedly have a more upfront 'club' feel, which didn't feel appropriate at a time in which dancing was a distant fantasy for most.

Sadly, not much has changed in that regard, but those other tracks will be emerging early in 2021 on a new 10" vinyl called More Light. Given that some of you already bought Love + Light in its original form, I figured I would let you know for transparency's sake. 

If you would like to pre-order the new 10", we've arranged a 15% off discount code: MORELIGHT 

To make a long story short, I got carried away and put too many tracks on the thing. I can tell you that all the vinyl looks beautiful. As ever, thank you for all the love you've shown the record. It truly does mean a lot, now more so than ever.

See you out there soon

Daniel Avery x"

Tonight was due to be Erol Alkan''s return to London for his only ''To The Rhythm'' all night long set of 2020. Even though we can''t all be together for it in person until his rescheduled date in October, Erol Alkan will be taking over Dazed Magazine''s Instagram live (@dazed) tonight at 8PM BST, broadcasting direct from his music room in his home, for a very special journey through his record collection.

To mark Erol Alkan''s London ''To The Rhythm'' show, we made 100 replica A2 screen prints of the poster. These were printed long before lockdown, but today feels weirdly apt to offer them out. We will donate 50% of the profits from these prints to the Royal Free Charity COVID-19 Emergency Fund (https://www.royalfreecharity.org/) which supports local NHS workers across various hospitals in London.

Hand numbered by Erol Alkan and ready to ship out next week. Printed on 150 gsm eco-paper which was used on the digital image and hand screen printed here in London. The last few prints have sold out in a couple of days so if you want one, please be quick.

"Thank you to everyone for the love you have shown ''Lone Swordsman'' so far. I can finally tell you that the record will be out on a limited run of vinyl early 2021 backed with new track ''Petrol Blue''. As with everything right now, exact dates are proving hard to confirm but as so many people have asked about the 12" we are taking pre-orders now. We hope to have it out in January. As with the digital release, all proceeds will be donated to Amnesty International in memory of our friend Andrew Weatherall.

Cheers to BBC 6 Music for putting it on their A-list this week. It's going to be stuck inside your skulls for a while yet. Love to you all.

In 2017, John Thorp interviewed Erol Alkan on the subject of his Reworks Volume 1 collection. Originally available as an inlay exclusive to the vinyl boxset, the interview is now featured online as part of Phantasy 100, ahead of our upcoming 100th single.

Phantasy is fast approaching it's 100th single release. With this landmark on the horizon, the label heads deep into the already rich legacy of releases on 'A Psychedelic Sensibility', a new full-length mix and digital compilation. The collection is curated and mixed live by John Loveless, the Berlin-based DJ who has been a creative force within the label since 2014, offering a singular trip through some of the label''s finest and most unexpected singles and remixes.

You can buy the whole compilation for ?7 (or pay more if you want) and get all the tracks and the mix included OR buy each track individually (mix will not be included).?

Originally written and produced as the centrepiece to his 2014 FabricLive compilation, Erol Alkan's 'Sub Conscious'' arrives on 12" vinyl and to streaming platforms for the first time, accompanied by two charismatic remixes from Manfredas.

Tonight! TERR joins us for our next Q&A in the Phantasy Facebook group at 8PM BST, answering questions on her studio process, her favourite music, touring, and more.

Cowboy Rhythmbox are back, but not as you know them. Cult house hero Sharif Laffrey takes the full range of sounds and samples across all three tracks featured on the ''Terminal Madness'' EP and spins them into fifteen minutes of undulating weirdo dance gold. On the flip, the Cowboys themselves provide a late-night, pulsating remix of the remix. Out on Phantasy, Friday 10th April.

As we approach our 100th single, we''re pleased to announce our brand new ''Phantasy 100'' tee, commemorating each and every artist who has contributed to our label so far.

It's been some years since Andy Meecham and Dean Meredith last collaborated as Chicken Lips, best known for their unforgettably odd house anthem 'He Not In'. As such, it's with pleasure that Phantasy welcomes them back into the fold with one of their most mind-bending tracks yet, with by a remix from a fellow stalwart of the underground, DJ Sotofett.

''Goldenlips'' and the accompanying Golden Funk Mix from DJ Sotofett is out on Phantasy on 29th May, but you can pre-order or save the release from today.
