ALEX BUESS on re-launching SKIN AND SPEECH RECORDS

Skin and Speech Records was originally founded in the mid-80s by Alex Buess as an outlet for some self produced cassette tapes, amongst them the first Melx recorded live at the legendary Alte Stadtgärtnerei occupied social center in Basel in 1987.

After recording and producing numerous releases on Vision in the late 80s and early 90s and countless projects beyond that since then, he is re-launching the Skin and Speech label now. Following the first vinyl edition of the 1994 16-17 album Gyatso in collaboration with Praxis in 2021, a number of new releases are in the pipeline. Find more about those in the video, which also provides some background and history, produced by Big Rogers.
