Bobby Tank

Bobby Tank - the new wunderkind of glitchy electrofunk has announced his new EP ‘The Way’ will be released in February on MofoHifi Records.

Bobby released ‘Afterburn’ earlier this year to much acclaim, it received over 60 plays on Radio 1 and Xfm and made it into the iTunes Top 10.

We can’t wait to hear ‘The Way’ in all its glory.


We are very pleased to tell you we have started working with the Welsh musician Stephen Black aka Sweet Baboo.

Sweet Baboo

His fourth album ‘Ships’ will be coming out in Spring 2013 through Moshi Moshi Records. You can get a taster for the album via a free download of ‘Let’s Go Swimming Wild’ here: https://www.facebook.com/sweetbaboomusic

Haven’t you heard? Segwaying is the next big thing, everybody at Anorak is at it. Well, we are when Emily & Laura make us go Segwaying for our team building day. The Anorak Ladies owned it as we can see from the clip below. 

The boys looked particularly fetching in their hairnets and Laura Anorak went incognito.

Did I mention it was at the RAF Museum and we also went to a 4D cinema?  You can’t say we don’t know how to have fun.
