BBC interview & first play of 'Bye Bye Baby' plus new release dates

Hi gang,

I did an hour long interview on BBC Radio's 'Introducing' show with Linda Serck in Reading last week, which aired on Sunday October 11th! This includes the first ever radio play of our next single 'Bye Bye Baby' which comes out in November. You can still hear it for the next week online at the iPlayer, click forward to the 11 minutes 50 seconds point to hear my interview: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p004mm5k/The_Session_11_10_2009/

Plus, next week Tom Robinson is going to be playing a new Temposhark track on his BBC 6 Music 'Introducing' show in London! I met up with Tom a few weeks ago, it was wonderful to see him, he's really cool - we did our first live session with Tom a few years ago during The Invisible Line album promotion - he was one of our first champions! :)

In other news, I have 2 important release dates for you. Firstly - the single 'Bye Bye Baby' will be released worldwide on 23rd November 2009. I just filmed the music video for this song in London's Limehouse Town Hall. It's a hammer horror inspired film directed by genius new director Ben Charles Edwards... there are photos already circulating on Facebook - I can't wait for you to see the actual video! The single itself comes with some cool remixes, so lots to look forward to.

We launch the video on the very apt Friday 13th November during our live show at Camden's Proud Galleries, for their new series of glamorous events 'Tales of The Unexpected'. More details on our MySpace. See you there!!

Also on 26th October 2009 (my birthday!), I'm releasing a 20 track 'Remixes & Rarities' album dating from 2004-2008 which includes lots of remixes and previously unreleased songs! You can see the full track list at Amazon. This will be available a digital album only, but comes with a stylish PDF artwork file too.
