Tim Bowness / Abandoned Dancehall Dreams

ADDSticker

Tim Bowness of art-pop duo No-Man will issue Abandoned Dancehall Dreams, a new solo record, later next month.

Produced with No-Man partner (and celebrated 5.1 remixer) Steven Wilson, the album features contributions from an impressive array of talent including Pat Mastelotto (King Crimson), Colin Edwin (Porcupine Tree), Anna Phoebe (Trans-Siberian Orchestra) and members of the No-Man live band. Abandoned Dancehall Dreams was also mastered by Pink Floyd engineer Andy Jackson.

Our sneak preview of The Warm Up Man Forever suggests an exciting long-player. The track features heavy tribal drumming, a great string arrangement, wistful lyrics and towards the end a ferocious Taxman-esque guitar solo (courtesy of No-Man’s Mike Bearpark).

The new release is available as a double-CD edition, which features remixes and alternates on the second disc, as well as a gatefold vinyl edition (which also comes with CD of the 8-track album). A very limited white vinyl has unfortunately already sold out already!

Abandoned Dancehall Dreams will be released on 23 June 2014 and can be pre-ordered from the Burning Shed online store.
