2026 uk rsd release. "Now on vinyl for the first time, Epic's 1995 outtakes collection Debris complements his half dozen other albums perfectly, revealing raw assemblages of all those forbidden influences, its intimate and unresolved air creating one of his most compelling releases. And how apt that Epic himself, the great archivist of the overlooked, should find himself configured in this way. I met Epic Soundtracks once. A mutual acquaintance introduced us as he crossed the road by Camden Market in the Summer of 1995, two years before he died, aged 38, in the Hampstead basement flat where some of these tracks would have been written. I didn't have time to tell Epic I loved his records, and that, as a teenager, I used to deliver newspapers to his parents' home on Widney Lane in the leafy Birmingham suburb of Solihull, long after he had left. Now I live five hundred yards from the Hackney house Epic and his brother Adrian, The Swell Maps' Nikki Sudden, shared when they arrived in punk rock London. I've been stalking Epic Soundtracks all my life, it seems, without knowing it. He is like someone we all kept missing somehow. And here he is. Again. Almost. And he's gone." --Stewart Lee, writer/clown, Stoke Newington, August 2025 White vinyl edition
