Recoil are heading back to Germany for 2 more much demanded shows! Alan and crew will return to Germany for a show in Berlin at Postbahnhof on Friday November 26th followed by a gig the next night in Dresden at Zeitenstroemung on Saturday November 27th!
The Recoil fans in North and South America have a lot to cheer for as Alan Wilder has announced Recoil live dates through The US, Canada, and South America! After a successful tour through Europe, Recoil is ready to hit the road again. More dates and cities will be added soon on this leg of the tour.
Alan Wilder will be going viral with his promotion for the upcoming ‘Selected’ live events and album. From March the 3rd, he will be presenting a series of YouTube clips that will lift some of the veil on what is in store on the Recoil front.
Alan Wilder is set to unleash his latest addition to the Recoil project on April 19th. “Selected” will feature his personal selection of Recoil tracks, as well as b-sides, old and new remixes. Disc two includes a remix by Nitzer Ebb’s Bon Harris and a new version of Strange Hours feature The Black Ships, and many other goodies. Hit the jump for the full press release.
As most of you probably know by now, Alan Wilder is readying his latest addition to the Recoil project – the album “Selected”. We’re very pleased to be able to reveal the artwork and the tracklist (below). “Selected” consists of tracks handpicked, slightly tweaked and lovingly remastered and by the man himself. It’s an excellent compilation, which will also be made available as a 2CD edition with a selection of rare tracks and brand new remixes.
Alan Wilder, former Depeche Mode member, will be remixing a track for the German edition of Nitzer Ebb’s new album Industrial Complex. His remix will be featured on a bonus remix disc that will be included with the standard album. Alan has produced and remixed NE in the past, so we’re excited to hear he’ll be working with them again. NE will be supporting Mode starting this month!
Alan Wilder has written an op-ed for the music webzine, SideLine. In the piece, titled “Music For The Masses – I Think Not!”, Alan tackles subjects ranging from the loudness wars, to the impact of downloads on the music (as opposed to the music business), and how difficult it is to actually get something as seemingly straightforward as a CD single released these days. It’s a fascinating read, and should tie you over till we’ve put the finishing touches on our own Recoil feature, which *will* hit the site on Saturday!!
Alan Wilder is pleased to announce, due to popular demand, a limited
edition CD release of ‘Prey’/’Allelujah’ on 25th February 2008.
Alan Wilder’s Recoil project has been granted the title of Best Electronic Album of 2007 at IGN.com. Now, this comes as somewhat of a surprise… not because the album doesn’t warrant every bit of critical acclaim it can get, but because IGN to me is pretty much synonymous with tits and video games. Oh well… read on for the full review…
