Jimmy Edgar

Boards of Canada return on 06/06/06 with a brand new EP. Trans Canada Highway features the original and Odd Nosdam remix of Dayvan Cowboy, as well as four brand new tracks.

The first ever official music video for Boards of Canada has also been completed. Directed by Melissa Olson, it truly is a thing of beauty…

Free Download of Dayvan Cowboy music video

Listen to Skyliner from Trans Canada Highway

Both the CD and 12” formats come beautifully packaged in the gorgeous retro artwork, and the vinyl is stark white. All purchases of Trans Canada Highway from indie stores will come with a free multi-region DVD of the Dayvan Cowboy video. At Warpmart you’ll get the DVD as well as an exclusive sticker while stocks last.

Nightmares on Wax

Jimmy Edgar

Jimmy Edgar


Following the long awaited album 'In a Space, Outta Sound', Nightmares on Wax will be releasing a series of three coloured 7" singles.

In red, gold and then green vinyl, each release will be limited to 1000 copies worldwide, and will contain tracks from the album alongside new and exclusive material unavailable anywhere else. Most certainly collectors' items in the making...

Out on 17th April is the first of the series, a red 7" containing The Sweetest and the previously unreleased Thaihi.

Preorder The Sweetest in Warpmart

“Evelyn’s lush, detailed, often cinematic music cannot be rushed” – The Guardian
“Precisely constructed, gorgeously fluid, this is further proof of a timeless talent” – Flux
“Soothing sensory-enhancing qualities make Nightmares on Wax records such prized property” – DJ

Battles

Savath & Savalas - Apropa't The incredible Battles are back this side of the Atlantic in April to pound some European eardrums!

True to form, the London date has already sold out, and tickets elsewhere are going fast. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.

In other live news, Battles will play London Astoria alongside Animal Collective on Thursday July 13th, so if you weren’t quick enough last time, you’ve got another shot.

All dates and ticket links are in Warp Live below.

Jamie Lidell

Multiply is getting a makeover. Multiply Additions will feature remixes and reinterpretations of each track from various co-conspirators including Gonzales, Herbert, Four Tet, Mocky and Freeform Five and is scheduled for a May 29 release. There’s some excellent music included - Luke Vibert’s mix of A Little Bit More is particularly dope.

Multiply Additions will be released in full on a 10-track CD (exclusively from Warpmart in the UK, on general release in all other territories). Four of the choicest dance floor cuts will also feature on a 12” vinyl sampler released the same day.

In live news, Jamie is about to embark on a major tour of North America, dropping the digi-soul madness along with support from Jimmy Edgar. All dates and ticket links are in Live Listings below.

Finally, Jamie has been confirmed as support for Beck on a huge US tour later this year. More details will be yours as soon as dates are confirmed.

Plaid

The street date for the long-awaited audio/visual project Greedy Baby has been confirmed as the 26th June.

Featuring an album of excellent new material, specially written and recorded in 5.1 sound (one of the first full lengths to do so) and put to moving images by Bob Jaroc, the release will include a DVD with all of the above as well as a CD with the album in good old fashioned stereo.

Plaid are playing at various European festivals and events in the coming months. Check Warp Live below for info.


Grizzly Bear

Warp has signed Grizzly Bear.  We are really proud to be working with the band, whose astonishing musical development since debut album Horn of Plenty promises a hugely exciting future ahead. 

Grizzly Bear’s second album and first Warp release, tentatively titled Yellow House, is currently slated for later this year.
