Vessels

Hey tweetgobblers. We have a small stock of super limited A2 screen-printed posters (only 50 in existence!) made by our friends at Prints of Thieves and designed by Adam Nodwell. They’re four colour and printed on heavyweight FSC certified paper, and will look Super Wow framed and hanging above your fireplace/dining table/bidet, so if you are looking for wall decorations that only 49 other people will have and that openly display your musical taste to the transient bidet users in your home then get over to our Bandcamp for purchasing capability!

Easy Peng-team!

Here’s the sketch:

Firstly: Rotary-encoder-‘twazzling brown-sound polisher Rival Consoles has remixed ‘Echo In‘ and it’s a DOOZIE! You can wrap your lobes around it above…

Secondly: Tweft bunting Sagacity magnate Antenna Happy has ALSO remixed ‘Echo In’: AND ITS ALSO A DOOZIE! Beb it at your leisure…

And Finally – you can hevvle your jowells around both those remixes AND the plum-wibbling neb-fest that is Ripperton’s remix of the same tune, all collected together like a bulbous gastrobunting three course-meal made entirely out of sound at all of the usual virtual/streaming sitelets RIGHT NOW.

We’re very happy to officially unleash our third album Dilate into the world today! Available as download, CD or a limited edition double-vinyl LP from all the usual online retailers (iTunes, Amazon, GooglePlay) and all your favourite UK independent record shops, or directly from the ‘shop’ tab of this very website. Crank it through some good speakers, turn it up loud, and let the sub-bass from ‘Vertical’ wobble your nether-bits around like they just don’t care! Tell all your friends. Phone up your grandma and hold the phone to the speakers. Shout about it at inappropriate moments during awkward formal engagements. But most importantly come and see us kick out these jams live, which starts in the UK next week.

The digital album comes with a free bonus track ‘Beautiful You Me’, and purchases of the album through Bandcamp or selected UK indie record stores (including Jumbo, Rise, Resident and Rough Trade) will come with a free collection of remixes we’ve done for artists including Pick A Piper, Rival Consoles and Maximo Park. Physical copies of this are extremely limited so don’t dither!

Here’s the album as seen through the eyes an obscure 1980s Vectrex video game console:

ENJOY!

Swiss Producer & DJ Ripperton has done an ABSOLUTE BELTER of a remix for ‘Echo In’ – check it out HERE on the Tsugi website or below in the player, and then spend the rest of the day trying to contain yourselves from going door to door asking random strangers to marry you in your overwhelming delight at its awesomeness.

Add to that the fact that Terry McTeff of Teffington has gone done a mashtape of bangers ooooohh! Have a listen, or put it on at a dinner party and tell your friends that you made it yourself thus basking in the stolen glory of high taste and sophistication that only a Teff contains.

Featuring Carl Craig, Radio Slave, Talaboman, Appleblim & Ramadanman, Bobmo, DJ Koze, Clouds, Daphni & Owen Pallet, Robert Hood, Call Super, Shifted, Caribou, Perc and Kiasmos.

So here it is! Our new album Dilate streaming in full. Heft yersens over to The Guardian website right now and be the first to suckle our sonic colostrum – directly from the internet’s digital teat…

And for those of you with an excess of bunce in your trou, you can pre-order on LP CD or download over at our website…

The stream comes replete with totally bilbous visuals courtesy of Joseph Hyde and Lost World Media made using an old modified Vectrex games console as we first showed you in the video to ‘On Monos‘ a couple of months back. Be sure to watch in 1080HD for maximum waft.

Remember,  if you like what you hear, then tell your friends, children, colleagues, padawans, pets, GPs, local councillors, nemeses, and Ombudsmen all about it. And if you’re feeling well street-team, you could follow in the footsteps of Pango McSpatchcock from Swindon and get a brief review of the record tattooed on your face.

Being in Vessels right now is the gift that just keeps on giving – and as if we weren’t looking forward to next year enough, ask we now have a gig lined up with the awesome Clark at Village Underground in London on Thursday 12th March as the opening party for Convergence 2015.

Last time we played with Clark,  (Brudenell circa 2009) we were treated to a member of the crowd exposing himself up on the stage. We’ve had strong assurances that if nobody offers to repeat the feat this time, our own Martin Teff will volunteer…

Tickets

Fully worth a gander also is this biblous remix of ‘Elliptic‘ by Norweigan glitch magnate Snasen. It manages to fit fully sweet laid back beats and also a cheeky neb-off into the same space. Vibe-town.

As ever, our own Lee J. Malcolm has been beavering away in the studio for your aural delight, and his most recent offering is this tasty remix of ‘On Tap‘ by Harry Wolfman. It’s a right neb-fest, boon it up without delay.

Bebbers!

What’s it been, four years? You look great, how’s the kids, are you wearing brogues????

Yep, it takes us a while with these things, four years to be precise, of poring and labouring over every sound and noise and click and whistle and tickle and belve. But it’s here, our third album, Dilate, will be gleeting its way into your ear canals in March. Thanks to Leeds legend Adam Nodwell for the immense artwork!

You can pre-order the album from our shop either on its tod or in a t-shirt bundulator!

To get the ball rolling we’re releasing ‘On Monos‘ today in our shop and tomorrow everywhere else. Featuring the immensual vocals of Snow Fox. Wrap your tendrils around the sonic asparagus that is our latest single:

And Vimeo

aaaaaand to further skelge your bevels we’re giving away an IMMEDIATE download of the album version to anyone who pre-orders the album.
