LUMPTRONIC is our CD project
Over the years Lumpen Media Group has released a series of compilation CDs that reflect the undergound sounds of Chicago's talented if not legendary music scenes. Below is a sampling of the available CDs that we've found in our closet. Usually these audio artefacts are only given away at our release parties and have a very limited circulation in local record stores. If you want to know what is happening in Chicago's underground music scenes. Lumtpronic is a nice series of documentations that will complement commerically released work from Chill.
