The Florida-based Inner Demons Records is among the labels that still hold the 3″ format to a high standard. Label owner Dan Fox (who several of you may know from his projects Loss, TIWIHWYT (This Is What I Hear When You Talk), FFI Digital, If and even a few more) is a long-time friend, and we’ve shared many stages. We somehow got this love for the format together at the turn of the century. The first sound of him I ever heard was actually a 3″.
About Inner Demons, there are a few things that should be said. Everything on there when it comes to art, production, and releases is done by Dan. Most releases, if not all, are limited to 42 copies, and the label has a strong anti-fascist, anti-rightwing, no-hate policy, which is asked of the artists to support before being considered for release. For the rest, the whole label has solid DIY ethics, as seen in the artwork and hand-stamped discs.
Each so many months (read: if there are enough excellent releases on the stack to have a few intense days of copying and cutting everything), a new batch is released with anything from 5 to 20 new titles, and earlier this month, a new batch saw the light of day. This time with an online sampler with some material from each of the 20 releases of this batch. You can find this at https://innerdemonsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/batch-2023a-sampler, and please note it’s only listenable online. But it will get you a taste of the ones you want to investigate further. So far, for the introduction, Let’s review a few … More in the coming weeks.
