Now the family and I are set up in Ireland I can put my mind fully behind the next stage of Neotantra.

I hope you have enjoyed the music and artists I have been able to keep releasing digitally whilst this year of transition and upheaval has taken place.

I’ve managed to keep a lot of releases free at the time of release during this time. Neotantra has a special place in my heart as a community for like-minded ambient lovers.

I feel like we have grown together by being able to promote and listen to artists that have taken us to places we wouldn’t have gone without this approach.

But I need your help to be able to continue the label in this way.

The honest truth is that the label is still in debt following some significant losses that happened when Árni died.I gave Árni a lot of money to press boxsets,tapes,CD's and t-shirts plus the money to ship all the products while we moved house from Italy to Ireland. Thankfully I recently managed to locate the missing t-shirts and cassette’s in Iceland. (Thank-you Gudmundur Thor Fridleifsson for shipping these out 🙏 ) The rest of the stock is hard to get to :(

So to continue the label, get physical releases rolling again and prepare the next wave of releases from artists (old and new), I need to do a fund-raiser to plug the remaining gap.

Some of you have contributed in the past, or have a paid subscription to the label, or both, and for that I’m truly grateful.

But if everyone in this amazing ambient community could see their way to putting a few quid in the hat as we pass it around then I can make sure Neotantra continues to deliver what it does best.

Finally, for those of you who have been waiting patiently for the Jougə box sets. These are the first priority in getting physical production up and running again.

If you want to contribute another way you can grab the new Jouga release here. https://neotantra.bandcamp.com/album/joug-savasana-mix

Thanks to Andrew Chisholm for the Neotantra mix and pushing me to get this fundraiser off the ground.

Thanks for the help, patience and words of encouragement you’ve sent me over the past months.

I’m looking forward to taking the label to interesting new places with you this year.
