As of yesterday (22/01/2019), RTR has been in operation for a year. In 2019 the label has been expanded to include an official website, including regular interview features with artists and listeners linked to RTR and a series of guest mixes. The latter is kickstarted by James Osland.
James is a musician, photographer, and label owner based in Bath, Devon, and may be familiar with our listeners for his album, ‘Manitoba Gardens’ (RTR004), which came out earlier in 2018. It was the first release on the label to sell out, and received a lot of praise from the ambient community. James runs the label Elm Records, releasing music by the likes of Gallery Six, Sound Awakener, Now Sleep, and many others.
We approached James to do a guest mix due to his immense appreciation for new and upcoming music within the contemporary ambient scene, producing high quality mixes on a weekly basis under the title of ‘Sleepy Sunday’.
