“I love to make music and by even the smallest recognition, is worth the effort.”
Craig Dyer
I´m trying to make writing this blog so often as i can, I added a new job at my schedule that is taking my long ( yes, the fuckin´ money ) , so i´m importing only a few bands by week , sorry for the break in posting, i continue trying to see how i keep on top of things.
So, on my endless search for good music, feel like that I’ve had a touch of luck last week, when Mark “Supersonic” Belton from Black Market Karma and founder of Flower Power Records dropped an psychedelic bomb on my inbox mail, it was the two last releases from The Underground Youth.
I Found something completely entrancing there and I’ve obsessed with the sounds from this ncredible UK band led by Craig Dyer that bringing back to me classic psychedelic sounds with a hauntingly beautiful twist … there was where my search began to find out more information about this amazing band, although in reality the music speaks for itself on a damn ingenious way that make exciting dive into their musical catalog.
The Underground Youth comes from Manchester and was founded in 2009 by Craig Dyer, who recorded his first two psychedelic lo-fi albums albums Morally bars and Voltage on 2009 that offered for free on their MySpace, following on 2010 with two more albums, Mademoiselle and Sadovaya, also free to draw on Internet, both albums unapologetic of show his obvious influences like The Velvet Underground or Black Angels.
Trying to hone his sound Dyer developed Delirium , his fifth album and the first with fee on Bandcamp, although regrettably there are still no plates to buy.
So, recently he teamed up with the indie label Flowerpower Records, so now hope that this will complement the profile of the band to make it a little more accessible. FlowerPower is a British Independet Records label, which have taken on the task of promoting young British psychedelic bands and they was who put on my hands on a copy from the two last efforts An Introduction and Low Slow Needle released last year .
Dyer currently looking for new live musicians to play in the spring of 2012 first gigs in the UK and I hope that 2012 be the big year for The Underground Youth and his psychedelic, he deserve it…

F.P.R. Home
Flower Power records are a true independent record label. We are free to make our own decisions, all based on music. Obviously It’s necessary to make money to keep the business alive and we feel the best way to do this is to always put the bands and their music first.
F.P.R was created by “Supersonic” Mark to give Black Market Karma the ability to make and release their music as they want it to sound.
Flower Power Records are not a closed shop, we’ve recently added Dead Rabbits and The Underground Youth to the label and are looking forward to working with more great bands. Share your music, videos, art, events, news, hook up with Flower Power Records on facebook and share the love.
