 1970s U.K. CompilationAlmost a year ago, I had the idea to do a compilation of songs from 1970s U.K. artists and I now that I have a grip of songs from friends and it is now looking more like a reality, I am finally putting some energy into this project. So far we have covers of the following artists: The Specials, T-Rex, David Bowie, Crass and Roxy Music. But there are so many other amazing artists to pay tribute to from this period of time and I want to hear them.
If you are interested in contributing something to this compilation, send your submissions or questions to majestic.ryan@gmail.com The deadline is going to be June 23rd-ish and it will be released digitally for free on our bandcamp. More info can be found on this Facebook Event Page cd & cassette sale!!I need to clear some room in the office. So you select 1 tape (or CD) for $8.99 and I am going to through in 2 more tapes (or CDs) from our catalog for free. (Plus, like all other orders from Related Records we throw in free download cards, buttons, random photos, old show flyers and other cool shit) we are on depop now! It's my new favorite app on my phone. I am going to be listing clothes and other non-media band merchandise here every day. Follow us!  For the past couple of months Related Records has been selling and playing records at the Black Market (located at Dark Hall Coffee in Phoenix) I feel bad that, I haven't really posted about it outside of Instagram until this newsletter. It rules, 10-12 vendors curated by people I adore and a portion of all the sales always go to benefit a different animal shelter, PLUS Dark Hall Coffee is the coolest coffee shop in AZ with the best desserts. If any of this sounds good to you, you should go. I think starting in May it's going to be happening at night too! Which should be pretty weird/great!
Instagram / Facebook DINOSAUR LOVE
"Dinosaurs Have Feelings Too" is finally here!
Dinosaur Love is the solo project of Peter Kulikowski . I first saw him perform these adorable Dinosaur Songs when he was 19 years old and just out of Art School. I thought “this kid is going to grow out of this and that’s a real shame” So I put out his first album “Dinosaurs Attack!” the next year thinking that would probably be the end of it. But that was definitely not the case, the same year he recorded and released a Christmas album “Have a Dino Christmas” and then the following year wrote a brand new dinosaur song each week for an entire year. You can see and hear these songs on his bandcamp, some of them are mind meltingly bad as you can imagine but others are so smart and clever. Then in 2017 Related Records released is extremely complicated concept album “The Gospel” songs about the Illuminati hiding dinosaurs from us, Jesus was a dinosaur, dinosaurs fought in World War 2… lots of conspiracy theories and religious shit going on, on that album. “Dinosaurs Have Feelings Too” is a much simpler, catchier take on songs about dinosaurs, obvious influences from Brian Wilson and early Flaming Lips. Pretty much all love songs on this album and I am sure is going to be a hit this Valentine’s Day.
Limited edition cassette. (50 blue / 50 pink) Official Release Date: 02/14/2019 PRE-ORDERS AVAILABLE NOW!Dinosaur Love February Trunk Space Residency!

On August 3rd, 2006 The Phoenix New Times published an article written by Benjamin Leatherman about Ryan Avery. On August 7th Ryan Avery is contacted (via Myspace) by two film makers from Utah that want to make a short documentary about him. On August 10th those film makers show up at Ryan's house in downtown Phoenix and spend the next 2 weeks filming a feature length documentary and conducting interviews with Ryan's friends, family, peers and critics click here to read more and download it. PRAY FOR RAIN REVIEWS!
"This is a group of Bay Area weirdo rockers that sound like a friendly version of the BUTTHOLE SERFERS or if MR. BUNGLE wanted to perform for children. The mood of this album drifts back and both between chill stoner vibes and the terrifying experience of realizing you drank too much MD 20/20 and are in for a rough night of flailing and throwing up. The most exciting thing about this album is that I don't believe I've heard much that sounds like it, so it's a nice treat to experience something completely unique." - Maximum Rock N' Roll
"There's been a wave of modern psychedelic music the past few years, and we've been all for it. If you love psychedelia but hate the hippie vibes it usually entails, the new album from Oakland's Turqouiz Noiz is worth your time." - If It's Too Loud " If you dig Garage/Punk with more than just a tinge of warped psychedelia then you may want to give this a listen." - Thee Psychedelicatessen An italian blog wrote a nice review about the new freaks of nature CD. here it is translated in english.
