Good news for all Serato heads! My First Moth releases are now available digitally at www.junodownload.com... To download your favourite My First Moth tunes just go to the release pages and click on “listen / buy mp3” where you’ll be redirected to the download page. Just remember the download releases will be coming out a bit later than the vinyl, so if you want your beats upfront you’ll still have to cop the wax!!

Today sees the release of the new Omas single, “What You’re Looking For / I’m So Dizzy”! Neatly following on from last year’s whitelabel booty 7”, Omas drops some summery soulful funk vibes alongside a JB’s style cut and paste nugget! Fans of the record include Sneaky (Fingathing), DJ Asparagus & DJ Simbad (Raw Fusion / GAMM), DJ Shepdog (Nice Up!), and Jon Kennedy, who deserves a special mention as he is soon to be appearing on a future My First Moth release!! We’ll have more details about that soon, in the meantime you can cop the new Omas 7” from all the usual stockists as well as the My First Moth shop here!

Anyone who lives around Manchester will no doubt be aware of the Neighbourhood club nights that have been happening at various venues around the city recently. The nights are a collaboration between myfirstmoth and a number of other collectives including Drum Music, Mind On Fire, Dub Smugglers, Family Gathering and At Large, and for the next one we’re throwing a big party at Islington Mill in Salford on Friday 23rd April!! Find out more on Facebook here or Skiddle here.
For a teaser of what to expect, make sure you tune into www.unityradio.fm this sunday from 3 til 5pm where Omas, DJ Mischief, and other members of the Neighbourhood crew will be guesting on the Groovement show. If you miss the show it will be available as a podcast at www.groovement.co.uk soon after the broadcast. And if you listen carefully you might just hear a sneak peak of the new Omas single which will be dropping on wax over the coming months. More about that very soon...
