ABOUT
Obscene Baby Auction has been putting on diy gigs in Leeds since late
2000 and is a manifestation of the brotherly love and shameless self promotion
of good pals Andy Abbott, James Islip, Giles Bailey and Graham Pilling.
Obscene Baby Auction is less of a record 'label'
and more of a collective that documents what's happening in the diy music
community. Obscene Baby Auction first pressed music to vinyl in March
2002 and has since continued to put music by bands it likes onto this
format.
Obscene Baby Auction has no distribution other than the records carried
by bands who are touring or shops that get in touch. This means if you
want Baby Auction records you have to go to see the bands live or contact
us directly. It also means you get your records close to cost price as
no one takes a cut bar a few pennies for the bands.
Obscene Baby Auction's concern is not to act as a promotional tool for
bands wanting to 'break into' various scenes but to celebrate live music
and people providing their own entertainment. We aim to support and develop
a national diy music community and provide souvenirs for you to treasure
after seeing decent live bands.
Obscene Baby Auction is based in a room in a house in Leeds. We welcome
all correspondence and are happy to share our ideas and limited knowledge
and skills. Feel free to get in touch and most importantly, PLEASE BUY
ALL OUR RECORDS. |
