High Voltage Sounds is influenced by great labels such as Rough Trade and Fierce Panda, and finds solidarity amongst other great current labels such as Dance_to_the_Radio, Marquis Cha Cha, 48 Crash, My Dad and Transgressive.
Individuals such as Steve Lamacq, Simon Williams and John Peel
Whereas musically we like anything that sounds like Sonic Youth, Blondie, Gang of Four, Neil Young, Joy Division, Radiohead (Kid A onwards), New Order, The Clash, At The Drive-In, Wilco or LCD Soundsystem.
High Voltage Sounds formed in November 2004 with the release of a 10" compilation record featuring tracks by The Longcut, The Sonar Yen (RIP), Lisa Brown + Performance. We've sinced released a load of amazing 7" singles which have been well received. We're always looking for new bands who may interest and excite us so feel free to get in touch

I foOund this weHbsi5te that shoRws who has a crubsh on you and thTought you'd wRanna know that one of my fripends had o3ne on you. You gontta tEry itf!
hey whats up? i just tried this website and this thing is crazy i think it really works lol. you just answer a few questions and it shows you everyone from school who has a crush on you
man i'm so amped! okay...you see those deals being sent to one another? me, literally i felt it was a joke..., but i tried one last week, for free $500 credit to shop @ Macys, and surprisingly it did work i couldn't believe it. you should go here and get one too, you see...?
WE WANT YOUR MIXTAPES! and we want them now.... For a mini mixtape/cd fest at Temporary Autonomous Arts, a squatted art exhibition in Manchester next week, from 24-28 October. See www.myspace.com/taamanchester for details.... Part of the lineup of events is DIY day on Thursday 25th, and part of that is our mini mixtape festival.
SO to get involved, all you have to do is: 1. Create a mixtape/CD! Make as many copies as you can, the more you give the more you recieve....
2. Message us to find out where to drop off your tapes before the event, or come to the space (Venue to be announced nearer the time www.myspace.om/taamanchester for updates...) any time on Thursday 25th Oct armed with your tapes/cds.
3. Put them on the mixtape exchange stall, browse through the other tapes and CDs,take whatever tickles your fancy. Check out the rest of the exhibition, the other workshops, and the jam night that night.
4. Go away with a load of ace new tapes and CDs lovingly compiled by a fellow mixtape enthusiast and discover new music for FREE! Come back to the space over the next few days and enjoy all the other amazing events that are going on.
Thats it! Simple but beautiful, eh? So get making those tapes and CDs and get in touch for info on where to bring them. Let your creativity run wild! The music can be themed, a collection of random favourites, music for a particular mood or time, and expose of a favourite genre, WHATEVER. Decorate the covers, make them pretty, make track listings, write little notes inside, or go minimalist and just bring a mystery tape without a case...
Its a good idea to stick an email address (or web address, or myspace profile address, or if you're a bit desperate your phone number and what night you're free for a drink...) in there somewhere so whoever takes your stuff can let you know how amazing it was. GET CRACKING!
Love and rewind and play and pause, Now Hear This! xxx
