Cookshop confirmed that they're 100% behind an Iq album next year. Superdupular tinkerings abound!

"We're pleased to announce that long-term collaborator Implosion Quintet will be dropping an album on Cookshop featuring an astonishing amalgamation of sounds and influences..."

"We dig what you're doing, as do alot of other folks, and think an Iq album is definitely worth investing some time/dollar into!"

Understandably, it's made for some very happy quinters at Iq HQ, and a great deal of jigging.

Additionally, a relatively old remix of a Jay Bharadia tune looks like it's being released in the near future via Lumenessence, the details being posted here as and when.

Splendo!

08/11/07 Hupdate
Iq are beavering away at their debut, which looks to be released next year. Long-time partners in wonk and good friends Cookshop seem interested but nothing is definite yet. None of this material will surface until it drops so it arrives nice and fresh and good. At the moment Iq are happy with how it's going despite some minor hitches, and the music's sounding the most accomplished of their output so far. Future plans include trying to get a live experience together, which is likely to be very fucking difficult indeed.

Shonk's having a bash at some unknown territory too, working in partnership with Norwegian soul singer Miwa. An experiment in heavy funkness, things are bounced back and forth over the internez so it's an interesting process all round. He's also redone his microsite as he was fed up with orange, and uploaded a new sketch '22'.

25/09/07 Relaunch
Viva la re-launch! Farkin eck man, took an age. To celebrate this monumental achievement of perseverance, there's a new ep, Shackle your rams from Implosion Quintet. These four tracks of previously unheard material are not penned in for usage on the long player, so you can have them for none pennies.

Additionally, we've uploaded all the other random stuff (Le Shonk and Glen Bastard) that's been knocking about, so you can check these out on the releases page along with the new Iq ep.

There are also whispers of other groups releasing through us in the future, so pull up an ear on a regular basis.

Hope you dig!
