24/09/2007 EXCLUSIVE NEW TRACK FOR THE WIRE TAPPER 18

Mordant Music are delighted to announce the contribution of a brand new exclusive track to 'The Wire Tapper 18', the latest in The Wire magazine's series of free CDs. The CD comes with the latest issue and coincides with The Wire's 25th birthday revelries.

Entitled 'Den On VelluMM', the piece entwines material from two forthcoming MM releases. The first of these is a lovingly selected compendium of music from cosmic art minstrel Dennis Greenidge. This ebullient opus will appear before the year goes off.

The second volley on MM's horizon will occur sometime in 2008, and will in effect be the follow-up to 'Dead Air'. This major album release will mainline MM to nerve endings presently hardened & haunted by 2007's so far stolid pickings.

This track will only be available for as long as the magazine is on the shelves.

03/09/2007 All newcomers to MM and any reticent punters dredging the site may be interested to know that as from today a 12 track Mordant Music selection is available to download in mp3 format from Boomkat - click here to peruse and/or buy. The full handpicked sampler - comprising cuts from right across the MM canon including deleted rarities and a brand new exclusive track - is priced at a reprehensible Ł1.99. Individual tracks are alternatively obtainable for Ł0.99 each. Move to avail yourself of this outrageous offer now.

21/08/2007 Joint review for 'Carrion Squared' & 'The Tower - Parts VIII-XVIII' in the August 2007 issue of Plan B magazine also.

MM will shortly have some foaming news to impart upon the autumnal precipice regarding new material. Stay perched for updates....

14/08/2007 A joint review for MM015 & MM016 can be found in the new issue of Vice magazine (Vol. 5, No. 8). Maybe 'The Tower' would have fared a little better had the writer successfully found their 'Parts'....

Both albums have received an astutely written review at Dusted Magazine too.

04/08/2007 A four-star review for 'The Tower - Parts VIII-XVIII' can be seen in the new September 2007 issue of Mojo magazine.

20/07/2007 'Carrion Squared' and 'The Tower - Parts VIII-XVIII' have both been reviewed in the new August 2007 issue of The Wire magazine. Available from all the usual merchants.

01/07/2007 We've finally received a copy of the new Die Gestalten Verlag book 'Supersonic - Visuals For Music', in which the artwork for MM's 'Dead Air' campaign is featured. It's a mighty tome which highlights some stunning music-based packaging & poster graphics from the last year or two.

This is a highly recommended book for anyone with a passion for design and/or alternative & electronic music. Mordant Music are overjoyed to have been involved and would like to extend their sincere thanks to DGV.

09/06/2007 MM would like to welcome all to our brand new web valve.

Our two long-awaited new CD album releases for summer '07 - 'Carrion Squared' (MM015) & 'The Tower - Parts VIII-XVIII' (MM016) - are available to buy now. Click here to purchase on mordantmusic.com ahead of the full release elsewhere.
