AFTER DARK REMASTERED
Over 5 years ago we released a slow-burning label
sampler at midnight on my birthday. The original pressing was a demo CDR that Ida
No colored with markers & glued cutouts of my hand spraypainting our names
on the world. It was supposed to be a limited edition of 237 copies meant for
the merch tables of Texas & California. It exploded overnight. 77 minutes
of analog electronic music mutating through Italo Disco, Krautrock, Electro,
Giallo Cinema, & Pop. By now, After Dark seems like it's in its thousandth
pressing...(we lost track a long time ago). And as we prepare for the release
of After Dark 2, we wanted to share with you where it all began. The last 5
years seem like a beautiful blurry dream. Since the October 15th release date
was announced back in July, everyone has grown increasingly anxious for the
hard copy. At that time, we didn't know Karl Lagerfeld was going to commission
Chromatics to choreograph 27 minutes of music for the Chanel runway. We also
couldn't have known that Symmetry was going to be asked to score a top-secret
motion picture for 2013. There is so much music we can't
wait for you to hear. For the diehard fans, we're going to start leaking tracks
next week. After slowly chiseling away at it since the spring of 2008, After
Dark 2 is finally right around the corner. Thanks to everyone for being so
enthusiastic & patient. I promise it's worth the wait. In the meantime,
download the fully remastered version of the first After Dark from my
soundcloud. I blended it together at 5 am this morning. Enjoy!
