The Leaf Label: NEWS ARCHIVE FOR MAY 2023

Craven Faults - Thwaite Watermill live debut
Published 2 May 2023 by DM

Big news! The elusive Craven Faults will make their highly anticipated live debut at Thwaite Watermill in Leeds on September 9th. The banks of modular synthesisers, patch cables and organ will be extracted from the old textile mill Craven Faults calls home, and pressed into live action for the very first time.

Thwaite Watermill sits on an island between the River Aire and the Aire & Calder Navigation and was used to power various Yorkshire industries in its working life. Now preserved as a museum, it will form the perfect backdrop to Craven Faults’ longform analogue electronic music. Half-remembered journeys across post-industrial Yorkshire, indeed.

The live show was announced in typically unhurried style at the end of Craven Faults’ May Day Broadcast. It featured a brand new 75-minute piece with live footage of the moors and their woolly inhabitants, and can be watched back now.

Tickets for Thwaite Watermill will go on-sale at 10am on Thursday May 4th.

Sarathy Korwar - Songlines Award Winner
Published 11 May 2023 by DM

Sarathy Korwar's KALAK album has been awarded the prestigious Songlines Award for the Asia & Pacific category. This recognition is richly deserved for Korwar, a visionary artist who refuses to stand still. With previous album More Arriving picking up the AIM Independent Album of the Year in 2020, it demonstrates a rich vein of form and evolution. We're proud to be on the this journey with him.

If you haven't listened, we strongly suggest you do.

Craven Faults - Standers out now
Published 12 May 2023 by DM

The day has finally come - Craven Faults' second full-length album is out now. Turn it up and get the wide vista Standers experience. Music worth carving some time out for so that it can reveal its secrets. The perfect travel companion.

Those who have purchased via Bandcamp can download Standers with an exclusive bonus track recorded for the May Day Broadcast, plus expanded digital booklet.

The full album was premiered yesterday on Craven Faults' YouTube channel. Watch here. Plenty of vistas.

We've managed to sneak another 50 of the limited edition 3CD box sets out of the warehouse, before they were snapped up elsewhere. They're on Bandcamp now. These are the very last ones we'll have, but there are still some available in the wild (independent record shops), along with the limited edition 'Fell Green' vinyl edition. Do what you have to do.
