‘Collapsing Tape: Experiments in Rupture and Repair’ cements its’ concept ceremoniously, bringing together the label’s tight crew of noisemakers – rapper Mr AKA Amazing, improv/free-noise band Ex Agent, concrète club agent BIPED – and placing them alongside similar-yet-different operatives from across the spectrum. It sounds random, we know, but you’d be surprised’ — Boomkat

‘While listening to the 90-minute Collapsing Tape, one is reminded of just how delightfully weird Bristol’s Collapsing Drums label is. The tape ~ a C90, just like an old-fashioned, eclectic mixtape – is the label’s 5th anniversary release, and is filled with outliers who in this context become inliers… The fact that there are more artists here than there are releases on the label speaks encouragingly of the label’s future. From improvised jazz to conversational rap, all daring artists are welcome.’ — A Closer Listen
