Saturday, Apr 5th / 08

Lots of things on the horizon, so here's a little rundown on what to expect.

Next up on the digital tip, we have Global Connections Vol 4. Here's what to expect.

01 – Electrosoul System – Textures
02 – Trisector – A Different Form
03 – Lm1 – Ambient Traveller
04 – Genom – Adventure Island
05 – Paralyzah – Dead Ocean
06 – Cutworks - Overfall
07 – Radicall & Ktee – Anymore (Remix)
08 – Reactiv – Sirocco
09 – Suni & Phorte – Return To Odessa Keys
10 – Deep Gemini – Deepness In The Sky

Promo page with audio and art coming very soon! Hold tight for that one.

After that, there's Sci-Files Vol 4 also. This one will be the first Sci-Files by another artist other than myself. More info on this soon!

Now CD wise, we've got some goodness in store for you! We'll be launching Covert CD singles in the near future. First up will be a 5 track EP by myself, with more to follow by Method One, Ezeekil & Mav. These will be strictly limited edition, and priced the same as a single 12". The format will be 4 drum & bass tracks, plus 1 bonus track of any genre, decided by the artist. First CD single will be:

COVCDS001 - ASC - Juno

1 - Juno
2 - Spaced Out
3 - Comet Charge
4 - Spiritual
5 - End Of The Line

You can find audio for Juno here, and audio for Spaced Out & Comet Charge here. Audio for Spiritual & Infrared System, nearer the time. Oh, and there's also the Third Rail LP if he ever delivers the masters.

Vinyl wise, we're expecting test presses of COV027 (ASC / ASC & Chris J) within the next two weeks or so. Sorry for the delay between 026 and this, but some things take time, and changing distribution companies is never swift and simple. The Polar 12" (COV029) will now be a 3 tracker, with a nice little exclusive as the 3rd track. Something a few of you have been waiting on for quite some time...

Merchandise will be coming very soon aswell, and this will tie in with the redesign of the logo and a few other things. Me & Ezeekil decided that it was time for a new logo / redesign, since the logo doesn't mean anything, and to be honest, I've never liked it - Joe hates it, but that's another story lol. So anyway, we'll reveal all very soon, and hopefully you'll all like it as much as we do.

The Mindspan LP is available from the store now. Click the link in the nav column to go there and purchase a copy. It's limited edition, and won't be repressed, so you only have one chance to own a physical copy of it.

Coming next we have Global Connections - Volume 4 on MP3 release, aswell as the vinyl release of ASC's Windchime Remix, backed with his collaboration with Chris J - IDEM. More news on both very soon.

Merchandise is on the way aswell, we haven't forgotten about that! We're tying that in to a complete redesign of the labels image, which we will reveal some stage soon.

Tuesday, Mar 2nd / 08

Covert Operations have just signed a new distribution deal with Load Media, who wil be exclusively distributing our records from this point onwards. There have been a few changes to the schedule, and the overall label structure, so read on.

Unfortunately, it's not all good news, as selling vinyl in the current climate is proving to be tricky for all labels right now, so we've had to downsize, meaning the Cov Ops Ltd label is now defunct.

Here's what you can look forward to next:

COV027 - ASC - Windchime (Remix) / ASC & Chris J - IDEM

Kicking off things with Load Media in style, we have the anthemic Windchime brought right up to date, with a stunning remix. This has been doing the rounds for a while now, and finally sees a release. Backing it up, is the smooth pressure of IDEM. ASC & Chris J join forces to make a mesmorising tune versatile enough for home listening, and to make the speakers pound.

Forthcoming:

COV028 - Electrosoul System - Full Moon / Never
COV029 - Polar - Hi Voltage / Sudden Depth

Yep, that's right, the return of Polar. Hi Voltage is a brand new track which will not dissapoint, while Sudden Depth has been a fave on dub for a long time now. It's Polar, so you know the quality is gonna be high. The long awaited ESS 12" is not far away aswell. More info on this soon!

On the CD front, we have COVCD005 - Mindspan - The Aeon Expanse

Coming very soon, is ASC's first LP under his Mindspan guise. If you aren't aware of this project, then check out the audio at: http://www.virb.com/mindspan

Seriously smooth, ambient, avant garde textures to sit back and absorb. Timeless stuff which we hope will appeal to anyone who truly feels deep music.

And if that wasn't enough to keep you going, MP3 wise, we've just released Sci-Files. Volume Three. Check out the Music > MP3 page for more info on that release. Also coming soon - the last Global Connections installment, Volume 4. Don't worry, there will be something equally as good and fresh that will replace the Global Connections format - just shaking things up a little bit!

Tuesday, Feb 5th / 08

We've launched Sci-Files Volume Two, and it's rather good! Head over to the store to grab yourself a copy. More info soon on other releases, oh, and merchandise aswell! :)

Saturday, Jan 19th / 08

Still no news to report on the forthcoming 12" schedule, but as soon as we know, you will also know.

A few new things to add though, including the launch of a new MP3 series, known as Sci-Files. Check out the Music / MP3 page for soundclips and info on Volume 1. This will now be COVNTD007, and Global Connections 3 will be 008. There's lots more happening relatively soon, so check back and we'll fill you in when the time is right!
