Surprise! Today we release a new solo record by Todd Tobias, his first one since 2018’s Massabu Evening Entertainments. It’s called First Man on the Rock and it’s a collection of brief, brash rock semi-instrumentals.
This new album by Ohio-based producer/musician Tobias (known for his work with Guided By Voices, Robert Pollard and Circus Devils) celebrates the primitive and the post-civilized; here joining forces to stir the souls and bones of the modern listener.
Free download, and there are (limited) CDs too! Get it on our Bandcamp:

Single Goodbye Budapest by Kristóf Hajós is out now! 🙌
Kristóf’s second single from his upcoming album, 6:00PM, is a true origin story in more senses. This dynamic indie-pop song pictures him leaving his city on a flight, which is (by some miracle) not late. Just on time. The bitterness and the sweetness of connections to the past both appear in the song.
The music for Goodbye Budapest, which is released in both English and Hungarian was written by a true Hungarian legend, László Pásztor, who founded and wrote most songs for the immensely popular disco – pop band of the iron curtain era, Neoton. He went on to sell more than six million records from Hungary to Japan, also winning the Grand Prix of the Yamaha World Popular Song Festival in 1983. Pásztor, now aged 79, took his guitar out of its retirement of over 20 years for this song only.
We’re super siked to announce the addition of LUIK to the Tiny Room family! Indie luminary Lukas Dikker (Bonne Aparte, Kim Janssen, Herrek) has his humble comeback 12 years after the LUIK debut Owls (Snowstar Records), with a sequel on which he breaks completely new ground. Outrar is a collection of minimal guitar improvisations, and will be released mid-December on Tiny Room Records. Curious? This Friday we’ll release the first song/video off the album!
Pre-orders for this beautiful folk album by Boeije are up now on our Bandcamp page:

Indie artist Logout returns with his 8th album titled “Τα της Επιστροφής (Of the Return)”. After 15 years of creative activity and a rich discography, this new album marks his return to Greece, symbolically closing a cycle that began with his first record and the song “Departure” (Paper Plane Flight Recorder from 2011), which was released shortly before his departure to the Netherlands.
The new album consists of tracks written during Logout’s recent repatriation period relocating back from a country that is the exact opposite to his own country in almost every aspect. It opens with the track “Αθήνα είσαι τέλεια (Athens You Are Perfect)”, which, despite its title, describes a far-from-perfect Athens, “from end to end sold and disappointed.” This song heralds the bittersweet mix of lo-fi, unorthodox tracks that follows.
The digital version of the album is out now, the vinyl release is up for pre-order but will be officially released a bit later. Check out our Bandcamp to buy the record and check the streaming device of your choice to hear the album!
