THE LAST AUDIOZINE - THE UNRELEASED RISE 2003 EDITION!

Ten years late it may have been, but we at Music & Elsewhere were pleased to finally round off the number of releases to an even 600, with what should have been a C-90 in May 2003, but ended up as a 'virtual album' available free on Soundcloud in February 2013. It was originally removed in January 2014 to make space for the new M&E Showcases, but those didn't really work out as well as we had hoped and are unlikely to be revived anytime soon. So,  I'm pleased to say it is now back online and available to listen to and/or download at your pleasure.

MAGIC MOMENTS AT TWILIGHT TIME - "FLASHBAX Ω ULTIMATE"

Released on Klappstuhl Records (SP 008) in October 2015, this double album collection is a compilation of the best tracks from the old "Flashbax" series, thus effectively a best of MMATT's cassette years, 1986-1992. Available in hard copy on one of those delightful faux vinyl CDR's (with code for bonus download album) or pure download, the latter option of which is available for a mere €5,00. Featuring over two hours of music (and elsewhere), the album comes with an impressive 25 page A4 PDF format booklet, complete with lyrics, artwork, photos and many a tall tale. And you can listen before you buy on Bandcamp, how cool is that?

MAGIC MOMENTS AT TWILIGHT TIME - "FLASHBAX OMICRON 13"

A very special free downloadable collection, featuring only tracks that had never previously been digitised, one from each of our 13 albums (or appropriate session where the whole album was already available), so some absolute gems and serious rarities along the way. This compilation was put together as part of the launch event finale for the remastered reissue of "Creavolution Reborn" (TMR Records, TMR CD8170) in September 2018. The link on the left will take you to the beginning of that feature, from whence you can grab yourself a free copy (by clicking on the album cover) to listen to whilst reading it all. We spoil you, don't we?

MICK MAGIC & FRIENDS - "CREAVOLUTION 22"

22 years on from the eventual release of our best selling album ever, having paid for itself many moons ago, we are pleased to make a second edition of it freely available in high quality 320k mp3 format for the first time, right here on this website. It's been specially re-edited for the digital age to work as standalone tracks, so you can either listen to or download all or favourites till your heart's content. This special second edition includes a whole album's worth of extras; tracking from my first return to the studio after the demise of the original band, all the way up to the aftermath of the album's release, including a previously unreleased mix of TMR's "Armegeddon Time", and "Storm", a never before heard unused track from the "Creavolution" sessions!

MAGIC MOMENTS AT TWILIGHT TIME - "MMATTLAND COMMUNITY RADIO FM"

Specially digitised from the original C90 (MMATT 35) for the "Flashbax Omicron 13" online event. Captain Garry Lee and The Black Widow, masquerading as Mrs. E and Scrotum The Wrinkled Retainer, did this broadcast on then pirate station, Freedom Overflow, as an April Fool's joke in 1992, playing only MMATT and related until they finally passed out. So, lest they forget...

MAGIC MOMENTS AT TWILIGHT TIME - "LIVE AT FRIMLEY COMMUNITY CENTRE"

A special edition for the "Flashbax Omicron 13" online event, featuring our 45 minute live debut from June 1986 (C-4010), plus the rehearsal in May for the infamous gig-that-never-was, when we were still just "a husband and wife duo from north west Surrey", originally released as one side of the long forgotten freebie "Live... And Sorry!" (C-4006). Can you hear me at the back...

SOME MAGIC MOMENTS ON SOUNDCLOUD...

Free to download or listen to, includes the whole of "White Hawk Atomic",  the "Freedom Overflow" theme and more, the Internal Autonomy sessions and Cheapo Card Company's "Magi Crap"...

AND SOME MORE MAGIC MOMENTS ON REVERBNATION...

Also free to download or listen to. This is the site that the Band Player on our Facebook page links to. A real smorgasbord of classic MMATT, including tracks from "The Time Machine"...
