Hey now: Other Music launching its own record label

The Times is reporting this evening that Other Music, the record shop over on East Fourth Street near Broadway, is starting its own record label "with an eye toward showcasing underground music in New York and reissuing albums by foreign artists."

Per the article:

The new label, Other Music Recording Co., will be an imprint of Fat Possum, the Oxford, Miss, record label that has such bands as Youth Lagoon and Smith Westerns in its stable. Its first release will be a 7-inch vinyl record by an obscure Brooklyn indie-pop band called Ex Cops, coming out on April 24.

Oh, wait! Pitchfork broke the news earlier this afternoon.

    Very cool! Always nice to hear about a vinyl record coming out as opposed to downloading.
