Hand Drawn Dracula brings together three artists’ interpretations of each others work in the first volume of Vicious Circles. Innovative and fun, this digital collection is a unique blend of krautrock, psychedelic and electro-pop.

BLACK MOTH SUPER RAINBOW   (Sun Lips from Dandelion Gum – itunes)
“The missing link between Daft Punk’s cosmic kitsch and the wistful bliss of ‘Strawberry Fields Forever’” (Blender)  -  “one glorious buzz” (NY Times)

HOLY FUCK   (Lovely Allen & The Pulse from LP – itunes)
“We often say casually that bands are “awesome” without thinking about the true meaning of the word – Holy Fuck actually inspire awe.” (Pitchfork)

SHUGO TOKUMARU   (Parachute & Hidamari from Exit – itunes)
“Prodigal pop amalgamist Shugo Tokumaru plays all his instruments and multi-tracks his way into rarified space, spinning contemporary and classical Western music forms into a patchwork of highly original, often fantastical set pieces.” (Stereogum)

PRESS QUOTES


“Well that mighty fine little label has gone and done something super special – This thing sparkles.” (Pasta Primavera)


“Similar to the combo of hallucinogenic drugs and Magic Eye pictures, sometimes applying a kaleidoscopic filter can actually make more sense of a mind-meltingly trippy experience. All in all, it’s a symphony of radness. 8/10″ (The Grid)
