Still In A Dream: A Story of Shoegaze 1988-1995

Limited Edition deluxe, gatefold double vinyl LP, 1000 copies only.

Issued in early 2016, the critically-acclaimed 5-CD box set Still In A Dream paid tribute to that seminal period with numerous classics, cult favourites, rarities and tracks new to CD.

Although “Shoegaze” was initially a derogatory term to pigeonhole a clutch of new acts, the term quickly evolved to become an accepted genre of music which has influenced successive generations of bands, especially those outside of the UK.

Side one acknowledges the 80s independent acts who helped inspire “Shoegaze” – The Cocteau Twins, The House Of Love, Spacemen 3. Side two includes some of the genre- defining acts from the start of the 1990s: Slowdive, Lush and The Telescopes. Sides three and four demonstrate the breadth of talent that followed, including acts from America.
