Lonely Man's Dream marks a milestone for Forager Records: our tenth release, and perhaps our most personal. More than a compilation, it is a self-portrait. A reflection of the musical obsessions, late-night discoveries, and restless digging that have defined this label from our first record to this latest one.Spanning the dreamy psychedelic folk of the 1970s to the cool shimmer of 1980s synth pop, Lonely Man's Dream traces a decade of curatorial wandering. Eleven artists. Eleven songs. Each one rare, obscure, or otherwise lost to the margins of music history. Among them, two tracks surface here for the very first time: “Never Say Goodbye” by Cocktails and Dreams, a synth pop transmission from Norway, luminous and weightless as the skies on the cover. “True Love” by Keith Jones, a drum machine backed demo that pulses with a late night intimacy.What unites these songs across genre and era is the same quality we have always chased; a transporting ache, the sound of someone searching, or the feeling of a memory you can't quite place. Like every record before it, this one asks nothing of you but your full attention and an open ear.Ten releases in, we are still looking for the same thing we started with. We hope you feel it too. * Featuring a selection of songs sourced from rare records of the 70s & 80s reissued for the first time.Includes 2 unreleased songs from the 80sOriginal artwork by Eric ThompsonVery limited initial first pressing

Two foundational releases from Toronto's Strobe Records get a well-deserved reissue on the Clone Classic Cuts series, spotlighting a pivotal moment in North American dance music. While often overshadowed by the Detroit and New York scenes, Toronto's underground in the early '90s was brewing its own potent blend of house and techno - and these tracks are prime examples of that cross-border synergy. The Hayden Andre Project's contributions sit at the perfect intersection of tribal house rhythms and the emotive, machine-driven pulse of early Detroit techno. There's a raw elegance here - a sense of deep groove layered with just the right amount of percussive tension. It's no surprise that these tracks became staples in the crates of DJs both then and now. The production feels timeless, with hypnotic arrangements that still command the floor over three decades later. On the flip, Kingdom Come, another alias of Ron Allen, delivers lush, blissed-out house music that channels the soulful energy of New York's golden era while adding a uniquely Canadian sensibility. Allen's piano work, layered with warm pads and swinging drums, gives these tracks an unmistakable vibe - equal parts deep house ecstasy and garage swagger. It's the sound of 3 a.m. euphoria, of packed dance floors and emotional peaks. This reissue not only shines a light on the underrated Toronto scene but also remind us just how global and interconnected house music was becoming in the early '90s. For both collectors and newcomers, these are essential cuts - testaments to a moment when boundaries between cities and styles were blurred in the name of dance.

After laying low in the burroughs for a few years the NY Stomp is back! Reconnecting with the raw, driving spirit of classic New York house, the project delivers a heavyweight, floor-focused EP. Each cut captures the kind of club energy that once shook iconic early-'90s institutions like The Tunnel, Twilo, and Sound Factory. This is unapologetic, no-frills house music made for serious systems and peak-time moments.

After the success of "Bar Mediterraneo", Nu Genea return with "People Of The Moon", expanding their sound into a broader, more exploratory dimension.Sung across multiple languages (Neapolitan, Arabic, English, Spanish, and Portuguese), the album weaves together diverse influences, from Afro-Cuban rhythms and Anatolian textures to highlife, flamenco, and bossa nova, all filtered through the duo’s distinct Italian perspective."Sciallà", released in 2025, offered an early glimpse into this direction: looking up at the giant mirror ball above us, we catch reflections of our best selves, realizing that "People Of The Moon" is not an imagined cosmic species, but a dimension within us all.A quiet resilience runs throughout the record, never loud or triumphant, but rooted in persistence. This sense of motion defines "Onenon", where Tom Misch shapes a Mediterranean brit-funk groove recalling the basslines of Pino D’Angiò. In "Acelera", María José Llergo channels the urge to chase the moon as if it were an unattainable ideal, in this Andalusian-tinged track featuring her vocals (also present in "Celavì"), supported by flamenco palmas that bring a languid yet propulsive feel.With its driving momentum, "Puleza" recalls the spirit of "Nuova Napoli", enriched by vintage synths and expansive delays, while Fabiana Martone embodies another of the album’s “lunar dwellers.”
