Latest Releases ...Welcome once more to PondLife, and our latest summer update! Firstly a BIG thank you to all who've visited & enjoyed the aural de-lights of our Pond since our inception in the spring of 2006, & left us all those lovely messages
Latest releases this summer include 'States of Amnesia' which is available as a free download. Also the Pond welcomes 'Whitedog' as long as he doesn't chase the ducks!
Already enjoying a wonderful summer feel, Glastonbury is full of wonderful music. Craig MacPharlan has released a second e.p. entitled'Immortal Hour' which includes music from the GONG operatic play. We welcome the first two albums from seasoned glastonian Busker 'Mark Kelly' whose album 'Freedom Train' is a real gem in the pond.
Despite forming some rather interesting Gas bubbles the pond is still steeped in tranquil folk sounds, and we wouldn't let you down. This season we have the delightful 'Angelica' Album from Muriel and a whole host of offerings from Caitlin. Also the unbelievable traditional debut from 'Forcenra' is here. And we welcome Catrin Oneill with her debut album 'Nains Kitchen.' enjoy.

The Pond would like to big up the quite big already Dragonsfly who, against a tide of teenage thrash, rocked so hard with their breton steps, none could stand in their way as they went on to win 1st prize in the Somerset 'Battle of the bands'
Matt's been very busy with his precious collection of sound bits and valve tings, producing some great new albums from the likes of Dragonsfly, the wonderful Carrie Tree and many more
New to the Pond are Willow & Nanohed, galactic bagpipes from Craig Mac Pharlan futuristic ethno spacetrance from the Blue Lily Commission & the majestic duo Ember Many more exciting acts line our ferny corridors for near future releases, including The Ballinsky Project (previously 'Nayfumble') with their new album Ctrl-Z
Ambient dubmeisters Tigga will be joining us in July with their new album Dubdream III, and back catalogue - a seductive flight of dense textures, pulsating dub soundscapes and hard phatt basslines galore - replete with flying saucers and eerie voiceovers.
Also coming up is the incredible new album from Esteban MacPherson, Solluna ... still at the mixing stage, this collection of shanty grooves is from the heart via the Far East and the West Coast. More on this must have soon.
And then there's even more from those bard-core maestros SpaceGoats. We will eventually be bringing you the entire Goaty back-catalogue, stretching across several decades of enhurument and weirderies.
stay tuned....
