It's been a few months since our last update, so here's whats going down. First of all, to start the year, we are offering the latest Global Connections installment for the stupidly low price of 1.00GBP. Yes, you did read that right. Our genorisity won't last forever though, so grab it before the price goes back up!

ASC's seminal atmospheric LP, 'The Astral Traveller' is out now on CD also. For more info, check out the Music page, and click CD's. You can also check the audio for GC6 by doing the same, but clicking MP3.

As for vinyl, we haven't forgot about it, but some things take a while to sort out, and with the current climate in vinyl sales not being too strong, we're having a bit of a re-think as to what we are going to be releasing on COV029. Unfortunately, we've decided not to release the 3 ASC tunes from LP on COV029, so apologies to all of you waiting for those tracks on vinyl. More news as to what will feature very soon though.

The good news doesn't stop there, as COV028 (Polar / Method One) is out on 12" vinyl this week. You should be able to pick up copies from all good retailers, and MP3's should follow within a month at the very max.

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.

Merchandise will be coming very soon aswell.

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.

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.

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.

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!
