We had a great 2023 with the release of 'The Strainge Case of Steve' and 'Dux In A Row'. We would like to thank everyone who listened to, purchased or shared the music, and we have been so delighted by the reception of the new releases. It has been exciting to see our album make some peoples' end-of-year lists as well! Special thanks go to Steve Feigenbaum of Cuneiform Records and Rafa Margen of ĂĄMARXE for helping us get this music out there to so many more ears, to Dario D'Alessandro for the beautiful artwork, and of course to all of our wonderful musical guests. We have now entered 2024, which is a significant year for us as it marks the 50th anniversary of Rascal Reporters! We have some releases planned to mark the occasion and have begun work on our next album already. We also have some old CD stock of back catalogue releases we are hoping to make available via Bandcamp soon too. We are also still sharing older unreleased music to our Patreon along with demos from throughout the TSCOS album sessions, and if you join us on there you also gain access to our previously shared exclusives including The Happy Accidents Demos, original Purple Entrapment cassette version, an album of Pigling Bland era recordings, and much much more! /rascalreporters

Was excited and very surprised to hear @aesoprockwins sampling the intro from 'Stabbing At Air' on his track 'Mindful Solutionism' from his latest album Integrated Tech Solutions. Check out the demonstration here to catch the sample! You can purchase our album Happy Accidents (which includes the full 25-minute 'Stabbing At Air') from our Bandcamp here: /album/happy-accidents-expanded-edition
