As some of you may know, I very much support and champion whomadeyourpants.co.uk, a workers co-operative run by a friend, empowering marginalised women by providing flexible employment, education and a social and community space.
They have recently released a brilliant album that I've been listening to for the past week. Every artist who donated a track has donated the royalties too, and hosted by electropuppy.com for free, so every penny goes directly to support whomadeyourpants!
Please buy a copy, its only £6.50 and a fantastic combination of new and old, known and unknown artists... but a great selection of songs which include;
Howard Jones - Revolution of The Heart
Scarlet BLONDE - Acerbic
Miserylab - About The Now
Electromagnetic Impulses - Body Beat
Fisher - Dirty Girl
New Model Army - Red Earth
Vittoria Conn - Flannel Pajamas
Katie Ellen - Good Times Never Last
Sara Spade - Breathing
New York Alcoholic Anxiety Attack - Guns and God
Subgiant - Filthy
Kajagoogoo (yes they are reforming!) - First Girl On Mars
Joolz - The Wolf Girls Of Midnapore
Please buy this album!
If you want to follow more about whomadeyourpants, there's a facebook group and a blog.
Cheers
BH
