So understated.... So good... Less is more

With this great sound we are happy families again.

As a huge fan from back in the 80s i have to say that this is more Fader than Blancamnge - and i don't understand why Neil Arthur (with all respect to him) is still using that name nowdays since Stephen Luscombe is not involved anymore. We'd still buy Neil's music (and this is a brilliant track) but this is definitely NOT Blancmange.

I agree with MANSTA. I love Blancmange, but I almost find it offensive to me that Neil would continue on with the name without Stephen.

Kincaid & Sinal - Jun 2017

‘Blancmange has been part of the soundtrack to my life ever since Happy Families was released.’ JOHN GRANT

'Listening to Blancmange obsessively. Probably the most under-rated electronic act of all time.' MOBY

Blancmange's new album Unfurnished Rooms (due for release on 29th September) was written and recorded by Neil Arthur and co-produced by Benge (Wrangler/John Foxx & The Maths and Gazelle Twin co-producer). It’s been a fantastically creative period for both of them, releasing their debut album as a new electronic duo – Fader’s First Light - in June 2017 and then the final sessions for Unfurnished Rooms followed immediately in the summer.

For the new Blancmange record, all the songs were written by Arthur while Benge added percussion and layers of analogue synth, with the pair then mixing the record together in the latter’s Memetune studios in Cornwall. 'Don't Get Me Wrong' features John Grant on piano and backing vocals.

Kincaid & Sinàl - DHL Mix #177

Buy: https://bit.ly/2TMfjQJ

A synth-infused father-son collaboration, fast-rising talent Kincaid has teamed up with his dad Neil Arthur, a member of the respected British synth-pop act Blancmange, for a fresh release on Moscoman's Disco Halal imprint, titled 'Big Fat Head'.

The forthcoming release sees Moscoman teaming up with friend and collaborator Trikk as Nucat for their first official remix under the new joint moniker. Wrapped in the label's favored air of eastern mysticism, this chugging and vocoder-driven track is not to be missed.

'Big Fat Head' is set for release on March 22 via Disco Halal.

Halal Twenty by Kincaid

The night went on and on, it seemed as if it might never end. It was late for some but as he counted the money in his pocket he knew that it was not too late for a sum. There was more profit to be made in this place and as he weaved and wandered between the lost souls of the night he thought about his life back home. The small town streets and the smiling faces of those people that had raised him, if only they could see him now. The music echoed with a hollow bounce as the walls moved beneath the flickering glow of strobes and flares. He took a deep breath and walked forwards into the blackness...

This is the second release between the collaborative duo which is Kincaid and his father Blancmange. They have previously released music together on Moscoman's Disco Halal imprint and was widely supported. Their new EP is even bigger.

PREMIERE: Kincaid ft. Blancmange - Late For Sum (Kincaid's Sleep Deprived Version)[Blanc Check]

Blancmange started life early in 1979 as the culmination of various musical liaisons between Neil Arthur and Stephen Luscombe.
