After a long dry spell, we are very pleased to announce the next Autoclave release: Calamateur vs. Steve Lawson is exactly what is sounds like, a collaboration between regular Autoclave artist Calamateur and hugely acclaimed solo-bassist Steve Lawson. This will be a download only album available through itunes, emusic, et al. It will be out in a few weeks and you can read more about it here.

2nd March 2006
As you can probably tell, we've been having a bit of a refit over here at the Autoclave website. Hopefully things are clearer, brighter and altogether lovelier for you.

There are several new releases on the way by bands old and new. More news on that soon....

27th March 2006
Things have been a little quiet on the recording and release front for a while, but that doesn't mean nothing is going on.

Calamateur/Andrew Howie has been recording away in the upper reaches of Scotland for some time now, and what the label has heard, the label really likes. Andrew has also got new management and is playing live far more than he used to. Catch him if you can. Recorded music will be available to buy in shops and/or download before too much longer.

Andrew has also been approached to score an original movie. The film tells the story of a man unraveling in the wake of his wife's death. Shooting begins in Philadelphia at the end of March.

Mark Russell of Oldsolar is somewhere in America, and looks set to play a solo show in New York in early April.

Bob Massey and his Gena Rowlands Band have just announced that the soundtrack to the 2003 opera "The Nitrate Hymnal" is being released on Lujo Records. Our congratulations to everyone involved; you should buy this record

25th April 2005
If you have holes in your Autoclave collection, you'll be pleased to know that two of our earliest releases are now available for just £2 - the much lauded Perfect Backswing and (trailer) EPs. The best things in life cost £2 plus p&p.

'The Old Fox of 45' is the 15th greatest (Scottish) album of all time, according to the results of the recent Is This Music? magazine poll. Click here to see the full chart and the accompanying article from the Daily Record. Thanks to all those of you who voted. We were very chuffed to see that the Oldsolar debut 'Many Visitors Have Been Gored by Buffalo' rocked in at 26.
