Whoever controls the internet servers, controls the intellectual record of humankind. And by controlling the intellectual record of humankind, you control our perceptions of who we are. When all music is digital, all independence will cease. Iron Man Records would like to release all new records on Vinyl and you can help make something happen. You are invited to become a Patron.

62 Patrons support Iron Man Records, you can be one too. Let’s make Vinyl.

December 5, 2018Mark

What's the best thing you can do with £20? Have you ever thought about that? I want to invite you to become a Patron of Iron Man Records.

Since I started the record label 22 years ago, times have changed and it is becoming harder and harder to assemble money to make new releases possible.

62 Patrons currently support Iron Man Records. The label wants to make all new record releases available on Vinyl. You are invited to become a Patron. Your help will ensure the insanity continues.

Transglobal Underground featuring Natacha Atlas – Destination Overground

October 30, 2018Mark

It’s the early 1990s. Drum and bass are two separate things. Club music and live music exist in two separate universes. Bhangra is omnipresent and unknown at one and the same time. Reggae and dub are half-forgotten sub genres. If you want to find any Arabic music in London there’s a guy with a stall at Shepherds Bush Market and that’s about it. Every music genre is parcelled up, labelled up, and kept in it’s own yard as far as possible from any other.

This compilation celebrates a rebellion against the musical divisions of those days, tells the story of how it happened and what happened next.

It all started with a bunch of disgruntled musicians, singers, DJ, writers and sampler geeks hanging round the cramped offices of West London...

Iron Man Records Patron invites Rachel Mayfield to play The Regal Theatre in Bathgate

September 22, 2018Mark

"He who controls the present, controls the past" - George Orwell.

Whoever controls the internet servers, controls the intellectual record of humankind. And by controlling the intellectual record of humankind, you control our perceptions of who we are. When all music is digital, all independence will cease. Making music available on Vinyl is more than just making a physical thing, it's about demonstrating and maintaining some form of independence from the mechanisms of the digital platform, and everything else. Whatever that is this week. Performing live is not just about going out and playing to people face to face, entertaining, it's about choosing a suitable venue, perhaps a space that maintains an independence from the corporate clone business of franchise and chain owned...

Mileage Into Music – Become An Iron Man Records Patron

July 4, 2018Mark

Iron Man Records would like to invite you to become a Patron. From as little as just 60 pence a month, or $1, you could help contribute to the next Vinyl release on the label and in exchange you can have a number of rewards, free things and benefits.

All the money I earn as a Tour Manager, and working with musicians, goes into the running costs of Iron Man Records, and helping Musicians wherever I can. I have financed the record label from my own pocket for the last 20 years or more and continue to do so. The record label runs at a huge...

Burning Issue – Everything Burns. It’s not about the money…..

July 1, 2018Mark

Have you ever considered how much your life weighs?

1100 Kilos of Burning Issue Magazine may be enough to push a Luton Van overweight. A medium wheel base panel van from VW can carry up to 1,375kg. I know what I would use to move Burning Issue around if I had to. I like to take my nonsense seriously. This appears no differently.
