Decal Baby

Decal Baby is a compilation featuring a selection of cuts from Leicester's Fish From Tahiti. The songs were recorded at the start of the 2000s and originally released on numerous 7s by FFT's Dave Dixey on his own Sorted Records label. This set also contains a number of unreleased tracks recorded during the same period, including the unreleased fifth single. All the tracks feature FFT's trademark lo-fi sound of crazed loops and snatched samples all thrown together to create a drunken hypnotic haze. At times it is almost dubish, at others it ventures deeper into abstract experimental areas. Given Dave Dixey's career starting out in the late-70s with Fuck Off Records artists Anthrax For The People, running the legendary Alternative Capitalists cassette label and decades of promoting weirdness in Leicester, Decal Baby is a worthy salute to a forgotten group and your chance to catch up. Housed in a full color sleeve designed by the original Sorted Records graphics man - Steve Lippert - using images from the group's archives. Lippert has also designed covers for Vinyl-on-Demand, Harbinger Sound and Black Sabbath! An edition of 500 copies.
