Headphone Dust

Headphone Dust is the label set up by SW to issue music by his solo projects. Many of them are one-off limited editions.

Most of the Headphone Dust releases are available on-line from the Burning Shed website, but some very exclusive (and otherwise sold out) items are only available directly from Headphone Dust itself by emailing hd@swhq.co.uk.
