24 2009-06-16T13:25:08Z Brad Rose is the man behind so many projects I don't think I can even remember them all - The North Sea, Ajilvsga, Altar Eagle, Sea Zombies. That's just a few of them and I'm already worn out. Despite being prolific though, he also manages to run one of the finest labels on the planet, the lovely Digitalis Industries. With a steady stream of tapes, vinyl and, yeesh, cds they never disappoint. Here's a collection of tracks from the man himself, setting the scene for an afternoon of sun drenched picnicking.
