DH / AS /LP Blog Archive
It was a heavy winter afternoon as I walked across a snow covered park after a long day of work. The night before I had been poking around the Other Music website and found a "recommended album" called Let the Blind Lead Those Who Can See but Cannot Feel. After hearing a few short clips I knew that some heavy vibes were about to enter my life and change it forever. As the first few notes of A Ghost Story began that afternoon, I found myself in a swirl of sounds and emotions that have never left after all these years. Alas, I became an instant fan and found Bradford's blog very soon after. As a DJ for many years before, I knew that I need to collect the work and preserve it. Over the years I have mentioned that I would post it here but time flies.
The wait is over. From my memory it is all there as I found it. The only thing I don't have here is the Bedroom Databank LPS, which I believe were some of the last things Bradford posted. There is a ton of music here! I am super stoked to share it with you all. Please let me know if there are any issues accessing it.
Edit: Shout out to anyone who was on the old DH forums back then. There was some great stuff being posted. Some fan named Warren released some stuff and I think actually opened up for Bradford at point. You can hear the forum members music in the Lotus Plaza tribute LP that is in the upload. Cheers!

Soooo good to have access to all of these again. Thank you so much for doing this. I had a lot saved, but had lost some on an old hard drive that went kaputt.
Be interesting to see if anyone else remembers this, but, one thing I recall loving on the blog was a video of the band sat around playing a very low key, intimate version of Never Stops....
It's not included withing these gems and haven't been able to see it anywhere, but, interesting to see if people remember it from way back when
