'VI,' as we've been calling it these past few months, features 17 tracks exclusive to Second Language by a meticulously hand-picked international roster.

The full track listing is as follows :

1. Tula - Tula
2. Tree of Birds - Pete Astor
3. Once Upon - Gareth Dickson
4. Washing Days - 30km Inland
5. Spirit Level (edit) - Dirk Markham
6. Ég umvef hjarta mitt - Ólöf Arnalds
7. Run Turn Follow - Tunng
8. Come Back To Me - Klima
9. Burn and Glow - Women & Children
10. I Lived In Trees - Mark Fry & The A Lords
11. Unstitch - Anna Rose Carter
12. Wesley's Fingers - Robin Saville
13.The Calling - Autumn Grieve
14. You Can Go Now - The Home Current
15. Set Sail At Sun Set - Junkboy
16. Share - Our Broken Garden
17. A Secret Peace - Isnaj Dui


Please note :

If you're a subscriber to Second Language, we've already mailed out your copy of Vertical Integration.  If it's not yet arrived, be patient - the postal service is erratic at best. 

If you're not a subscriber, be quick!  Vertical Integration comes as a strictly limited edition of 400 copies. It will not be re-pressed once these copies have been sold.

This release will be exclusively available from our website, alongside Norman Records mail order and Rough Trade shops - though only copies bought directly from the Second Language website will include an exclusive Second Language button badge : http://www.secondlanguagemusic.com/

And yes, we have skipped a catalogue number.  SL05 is still in production but will be out just as soon as we can pull it all together. 

BRAND NEW WEBSITE

Thanks to our wonderful tech/design genius, Ian Mackinnon, we have a lovely new Second Language website.  It's easier on the eye, a doddle to navigate and well, we're really proud of it!  Have a gander : http://www.secondlanguagemusic.com/

MUSIC & MIGRATION ON TOUR

Martin Holm of Second Language/The Home Current will be making a DJ appearance at the Falsterbo Bird Show in Sweden this September alongside a live set from Music & Migration contributor, Ant.  The bird show runs from 3 - 5 Sept but the M&M bit will be on the 4th.

ANDY WEATHERALL ON GHOSTWRITER

Iconic DJ, Andy Weatherall included Ghostwriter's 'Like Brandy On A Cold Night' on his recent 6 Music radio mix, declaring it, "..a lovely album....much more valuable than any download...."  

You can listen to his show here - though be quick! - it'll only be up there for another 3 or 4 days : http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00tc4tc

We have only a handful of copies left of Ghostwriter's 'The Continuing Adventures Of The Strange Sound Association.'  You can buy it directly from us here :

SUBSCRIBERS GET MORE FOR THEIR MONEY

Not only is it cheaper to subscribe to Second Language than buy individual releases, subscribers also benefit from an endless supply of freebies (like the recent Piano Magic 'Home Recordings' CD) not available elsewhere.  If you haven't yet subscribed to 2L, you may well be kicking yourself very soon!
