SINGLES CLUB






We've made a number of choice cuts available via Viinyl.com - mainly because of the huge backdrops they have on their pages.

If you 'do' facebook or twitter, and if you're happy to tell people what you think of the track, you can download it for free. A couple of these are exclusive mixes. Oh yes!

Check them out and let us (and the rest of the world) know which ones you prefer:

KICKING OFF THE JAMS



An excellent all-nighter in Brighton followed by an entire day of duvets and Black Books / The IT Crowd / Father Ted back at Hotel Mekano.

Great to get the crowd moving again - a few people obviously got a bit carried away so we figured it would be best to stop before we started having to use our instruments as riot control devices. Machismo dressed as alt. culture is never an attractive site. Especially when falling flat on its face.

"You gonna be a good boy? You gonna be a good boy? Cause we wanna do another song, and you wanna dance." The look of shame on the guy's face was priceless.

For those of you at the back who didn't get to enjoy the view: one over-excited dancer careered across the full width of the dance floor and landed head first into our laptop. It didn't stop the drums so we just carried on. Although when it was clear that a small number of over-sized egos were giving the organizer (who worked very, very hard to keep the night together) grief, the mood was tainted and we pulled the plug.

Deb took a few snaps during the sound-check, before helping us out by Gaffa-Taping down make-shift speaker cables: Lee and Justine looking down-trodden when we were told there was no one around to set the PA up, so we wouldn't actually be able to play + Milk looking smug after plugging everything into anything until we got sound pumping through speakers):

A NEW IMERCIA





Eeeeeep! Today, our new EP has appeared on The Spotifyings: http://open.spotify.com/album/3fQttVXsO2qm0yCoYgRaJz

We had, and still have, no plans to produce a second album. We're much more interested in EP's.

This is the strongest set of mixes we've produced to date. At least to our ears. Over the last 12 months we reached a point where we had a number of new ideas, and some mixes of existing tracks that came about through playing them live. So a compilation of sorts came about quite naturally.

So this is an extended EP. At least to our brains.

These songs are available to download via iTunes Store and our Bandcamp page (which has extra songs not available anywhere else).

Thank you for listening. I think if you weren't, we wouldn't be motivated quite enough to make the effort.

"Emotional electronic music made with blood, spit, tears and seminal fluid. The most f**kable record of the 21st century." Elementary Records.
