Detachments: Audio Video / The Flowers That Fell OUT NOW

Detachments new single AUDIO VIDEO / THE FLOWERS THAT FELL is out now.

You can get the 2x original versions (remastered for 2011) from itunes:

ITUNES

Plus there are some rather special remixes of Audio Video available from Beatport. Andy Blake (Dissident / World Unknown) has turned in an 11 minute industrial dub - its been called Andy's best to date and he closed his set at World Unknown on Friday with it.

Headman (Relish / Gomma) turns in both a vocal and a dub remix to the usual Headman level of quality.

Hotly tipped Chicago band (loved by Veronika from Minimal Wave and FACT) WHITE CAR also turn in a weirdo edit of the track ahead of them touring the UK in the Autumn.

The fast rising Stopmakingme fresh from his debut release on Turbo turns in a big electro techno tinged version which Headman closed his recent monthly mix with and Matt Walsh called his "best to date".

There are also remixes from Frenchbloke who turns in a BASIC version which channels The Normal's Warm Leatherette and Factory Floor, and Aquiline turns in a blissed out Italians Do It Better balearic Gavin & Delia esque remix.

Get them here:

DETACHMENTS LIVE AT CLUB THE MAMMOTH

Detachments continue their tearing apart of the synth pop nu-industrial 2011 rulebook with a headline show at The Queen Of Hoxton. I will be playing a number of 7" records before the band take the stage. Beware your ears as we take no prisoners.

Come and see why Andrew Weatherall, Trevor Jackson, Salem and Tim Goldsworthy all wanted to get involved with Detachments. I've already heard the 2nd album and its the future.

Happy new year from Thisisnotanexit

Thisisnotanexit goes digital

A short blog post as we descend into hibernation - the snow has come so its time to hide away and listen to the Detachments album on repeat (trust us it's made for when there are days with snow on the ground) and wait until the warmth reappears.

To get you through the nights here are FOUR rare / unreleased tracks you can get from the Thisisnotanexit store. Not available anywhere else. What price exclusivity?

Both of the above plus the T&A End Of The Pier Remix of Detachments Holiday Romance and the CFCF Remix of The Dark Esquire's Situation can be got from here and only here. Buy them from us and we might be able to buy little Timmy something nice for Christmas.

NOTHING BUT US

I'm DJing at the Nothing But Us night this weekend. Free entry and I'll be dusting off some of the following if the crowd follow my lead.....

DETACHMENTS

Detachments debut album is out now on Thisisnotanexit Records. Featuring 11 tracks as recorded earlier this year in the coldest February for decades Detachments debut album is wildly ambitious and takes the 80s synthpop blueprint and updates it for a modernist oos audience. Imagine Hurts if they'd listened to Cabaret Voltaire and OMD and Depeche Mode rather than Westlife and the best of bits from The X Factor.

http://thisisnotanexitrecords.bigcartel.com/product/detachments-detachments-cd

You can also get a limited 300 only 12" of the new single Holiday Romance featuring remixes from Cosmo and Andy Blake. Andy Blakes 17 minute take has been called "the remix of the year" by Slutty Fringe and "brilliant" by Simian Mobile Disco. Sounding like Throbbing Gristle meets Phuture its a sensational redux.

For those of you in London town Detachments will be celebrating the release of the album with a special London show at CAMP in Shoreditch on Tuesday 5th October.

CLAN OF XYMOX

Tomorrow evening I'll be warming up for the Detachments live show at The Big Chill House with a bunch of post punk and minimal wave records. I packed this track last night when I was sorting through some records. I've been loving it all week after rediscovering it on the Creatures Of The Night Optimo podcast. Optimo have basically taken a scalpel to the A Day Remix - taken out the gothic overtones - and ramped up the screeching best bit. An example of what re-editing can achieve! This is most certainly in the bag for tomorrow night for when the dancefloor gets going.

You can get it on this LP as you shouldn't DJ out with 160kps MP3's.

Slutty Fringe and World Unknown

We'll start this off with saying sorry about Friday night and The Drop being closed down by the council a few hours before the THISISNOTANEXIT party. A total nightmare. Still, we'll have Night Plane back over soon for a live show and keep you abreast of Thisisnotanexit events.

Oooohhhhhhhhh here we go.

For those who needs their THISISNOTANEXIT live fix then there are two London based events over the next couple of weeks which are of note.

First up is the Slutty Fringe 4th Birthday Party at The Big Chill House on Saturday 7th August. It's almost a Thisisnotanexit party as Detachments will be playing live and myself and Matt Waites (aka Moscow) will be DJing alongside the Slutty Fringe people. Moscow remixed Detachments Fear No Fear and has been a friend of Thisisnotanexit from the start so should be a blast.

I'll be doing the early shift from 8.30pm spinning weird synth records, post punk and minimal wave. Proper DJs and proper beatmatching later on after Detachments.

Then on Friday 13th August Detachments head South to play at the quite awesome World Unknown party in Brixton. Hosted by Andy Blake and Joe Hart and playing the sort of music Thisisnotanexit wholeheartedly approves of. I'll let them tell you what the score is.

World Unknown is a monthly session with a soundtrack that takes in elements of Belgian new beat, EBM, electro, acid house, synth wave, techno and dark balearic, and hangs out somewhere in the territory inhabited by Ron Hardy's wild, kinetic take on house in its prototype form at Chicago's legendary Muzic Box circa '83-'86, alternative dance mecca Medusa's in Chicago during roughly the same period and later and the sound of Belgian clubs Boccaccio, Carrere and Ancienne Belgique in the mid to late 80s. Naturally Andy and Joe bring things bang up to date with their own unique take on things, digging deep into their expansive, labour-of-love record collections for those gems that nobody else is playing...yet.

Andy Blake has remixed Detachments new single Holiday Romance into an 18 minute 1 take acid house groove that was exclaimed by the Slutty Fringe guys to be the remix of the year. So watch out for that out soon. Somehow everything on this post links all together. Beautiful.
