Xylitol’s lauded Anemones album gets vinyl release after cassette success

Vinyl edition, due to public demand, hits shelves at the end of September

Xylitol’s Anemones album, which has gained widespread praise after its recent release on cassette and digital formats on the Planet Mu label, is to get a vinyl release later this month.

Xylitol aka Brighton-based DJ Bunnyhausen, told Juno Daily in a recent interview: “Having operated at the cottage industry end of the music industry for two decades, the reach of the album and the depth of connection people seem to have felt with it have really thrilled me. And yes, much as I love a cassette tape, I’m excited that it’s going to be on vinyl too so all the jungle dads, and mums, can spin at at their local pub’s open decks night.”

The album uniquely combines her teenage love of hardcore, jungle and drum & bass with elements of her other musical interests – as well as being a resident at long running Krautrock night Kosmische, she hosts a radio show on Yugoslavian synth pop called Slav To The Rhythm. The title came from a line from a poem by her friend Edmund Davies, which read ‘We grew from the ground like anemones‘. She said it “felt like an allegory for how I saw the dance and the nightclub as a laboratory for new forms of community and subjectivity.”

DJ Bunnyhausen recently completed a fantastic mix for Juno Daily’s In The Mix series and spoke to us about the album – click here to see and hear both.
