65 Propaganda - New Album Comming

Неделя след обяд. Кафе пред компютъра. Решавам да си проверя e-mail-a:

"Quantise yourself!

We've stumbled into autumn and a recording studio. 65 is finally making an album. We are using a producer for the first time. This is something completely new for us, but he has Orbital as the ringtone on his phone and so we trust him implicitly. The recording will be done in our home town of Sheffield once again, specifically 2Fly Studios, run by one of the greatest engineers of all time. Right now he is soldering. Soldering on.

Whilst we are in here, we will endeavour to somehow fuse this clinical future of social networking and constant information flow with a suitable air of mystery and (melo)drama to keep you all up to date on how it is going. We are on Twitter, of course, and are slowly warming up to that. For a band like us it can only be a thing to embrace, however unsettling. And whilst www.65daysofstatic.com will forever remain our uncompromised online home (check the new front page for the various feeds we’ll try and keep updated), we will do our best to spread word as far as we can. We will need your help.

(If the owners of the 65daysofstatic facebook group would like to make themselves known to us, now would be the time...)

Once the album is finished, then the four of us can revert to the admin positions we are frankly much more comfortable with, and spend our days conjuring up tall tales of 65 grandeur and making quickly-edited films of us in the studio messing with synths to clutter your life up with.

IT'S ALL ABOUT BRAND BUILDING.

Someone, Somewhere, in a broken video camera, has footage of a CEO of a huge American record label giving 65daysofstatic a 'pep talk' about how great we are. He calls us a 'lifestyle band'. I think that means people like him can live through our integrity vicariously, or something. We got a tour of their offices in Hollywood when we were out there. They gave us bagels, black coffee and vegan cream cheese.

They promised us Pontiac adverts…

Anyway.

2010 is going to be all about touring.

The album will come out, one way or another, and then we will get out on the road and we will eventually be somewhere near you at some point, we promise.

The first show of 2010 has been confirmed, in fact, and it is in Singapore on March 13th at the Esplanade. This should give you some idea of our intentions.

Jumping back to now, for a moment, and here is what else is happening aside from the making of the new record:

NOVEMBER 13TH - A 65DJ set somewhere in Cheltenham. One/Some/All of us will be playing tracks from a laptop at 130bpm in an effort to make people dance. If there are finished 65 tunes to drop by this point, then we'll probably be dropping them. If not, we'll be dropping vodka instead. And by 'dropping', we mean 'drinking'.

NOVEMBER 17th & 18th - TWO EXTRA SPECIAL SHOWS IN MANCHESTER & LONDON.

The London show is inches away from being sold out, and we never even got round to advertising it properly, so you'd best hurry up and book yourselves some tickets to the Manchester one, yeah?

Three Trapped Tigers are main support for both shows, which is basically amazing. First on in Manchester is Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaur, first on in London we're still in the process of confirming, but it will hopefully involve A LOT of low end. We also are honoured to have the AGT Rave CRU djing between it all, which will be a glorious thing to behold.

They are 'extra-special' shows because we plan to continue playing until every single ear in the building starts bleeding.

So.

That's what's going on with us.

This mailout was soundtracked by the new Fuck Buttons album. It is excellent. A couple of weeks ago, we saw HEALTH play in Sheffield. They were excellent too. Who'd thought all this ultra-cool- noise-dance action would prove so popular?

Not us.

Forever yours, forever-out-of-style,

65."

По - хубаво от това, здраве му кажи ;)
