from the letter:

Dear Friends
Not really spam, more like a home-cooked seitan
burger.We'll try and make it regular, but you KNOW how
unlikely that will be.
A big thank you to all who pre-ordered the last
CDs.Hopefully all arrived at their destinations at
least one month ago.It did make a big difference in a
challenging year..
Edward

HE LEGENDARY PINK DOTS -THE LATEST

If all has seemed quiet at Chez Dots recently , it's
because the band have been intensively recording a new
album.No title yet, but 13 songs created so far and
the fountain is literally gushing.
Some of the new songs can be heard live in LPDs'
planned Autumn /Winter Tour.The first confirmations
are now made but many more shows are expected. To stay
up to date we recommend that you visit

1.THE SILVERMAN/Spectral Artefact CDR

Silverman from Nantes (we believe) at the end of the
90s.Sound quality is close to perfect.

Price 10 euros/ 14 USD plus postage (Please see
below)

2.MIMIR/First album revisited CD only
Christoph Heemann spent a year re-interpreting the
sessions that constituted the first Mimir album and
the result could never be described as a mere 'remix'.
In fact it sounds like a new album, and one hell of a
new album to be precise.A beauty.
price: 15 euros / 19 USD

3.MIMIR/Mimiryad (First interpretation) CD only
This is the original Mimiryad (Mimir's second album)
which first appeared as a very limited vinyl release
some time last century.Line-up for Mimir on this
release was Christoph Heemann, Andreas Martin, The
Silverman,Edward Ka-Spel and Jim O'Rourke.
Price :15 euros/ 19 USD

STILL IN STOCK AT TEKA
3 copies only of MIMIR III CD @ 15 euros/ 19 USD.This

ULKOMAALAISET 2 (CD)
Both to be released in Beta Lactam Ring Records'

An explanation....
Easter in rural Finland isn't exactly the most
exciting holiday.
Everything is closed, the few people that are normally
there seem to vanish and even the
mosquitos maintain a respectful distance.

Martin Heuser somehow found himself in Karis (also
known as Karjaa for ,in Finland , most of the places
have 2 names) with nothing to do.He had flown North
from his birthplace in South Brazil to avoid military
service and claim a spot at the delightful Larkkulla
College- but at Easter 2007 he very much felt like an
outsider .The college was virtually empty.
Likewise Edward Ka-spel (an Englishman) and Alena
Boikova (a Russian) found themselves at the same place
at the same time,anxious to celebrate the coming of
Spring but not quite sure how to do it.
A casual conversation over a bottle of Chilean wine,
procured BEFORE the shops closed, revealed that Martin
played classical piano.Ka-spel ,a little excited by
this news, declared that the three should make an
album.
In fact they made two.They will probably make another
one at some time in the future. What else a poor
foreign boy (or girl ) do in Finland?
Ulkomaalaiset means "Foreigners" in Finnish.The name
was decided upon in a truly democratic way as all
found the word to be a beautiful one.

Martin Heuser:piano
Alena Boikova: Drums,percussion, electronics
Edward Ka-Spel:keyboards,electronics,small indescribable objects.

COMING SOON !! (2) (on Beta Lactam Ring Records)
