NEW FREE HERV DIGITAL RELEASE OUT NOW ON COCK ROCK DISCO!

Heres what label owner Jason Forrest had to say!

Herv: "Not figuratively, but literally in love with Music..."

"Ireland's sexiest laptopper lands his latest mini-album on Cock Rock Disco!
"Not figuratively, but literally in love with Music..." is a rave inspired
experimental break-acid-core thrill ride of endless ideas and possibilities.
Herv packs a lot into the 8 tracks; melodies evolve and twist, beats
fracture and congeal and synths collide! It's exciting!  But that's not all,
it comes with 2 cd designs and a freakin A0 sized poster! Whoa! Can't beat
the value in that!"

The album is available to download from here:

http://www.cockrockdisco.com/CRD2/albumpages/Crockp3-019.html

Kind regards

Ewan Herv.

Nice one John. Both chuffed that you think so.
We are currently talking to Planet Mu so, fingers are crossed.
Are you heading into the Clark/Bibio/Plaid/Exile gig in the Button Factory?
Looks like a seriously good evening!
