1. A Place To Call Our Own

Shortened version of my latest EP "Never Let You Go". This EP features new and different versions of my song Never Let You Go.

The first track is the "alternative version" of the song, with different lyrics to the original song.

There is a "classic" 1980s type 12-inch extended version of the song, along with a dub version, in the style of my remixes for Pitch Black and Tom Bailey.

I wrote the song for my wife's birthday. She's definitely the perfect mother and perfect wife.

The song has already been played on the radio in the UK and round the world. It was described as tragic and a heartbreaker!

It marks a move away from my previous chillout and dub styles to a more new wave and synthpop style which is inspired by my love of bands like OMD, Kraftwerk, Soft Cell, Depeche Mode and other bands that started out in the 1980s.

You can find the full version of the EP with two extra tracks on my Bandcamp site - https://mistrust.bandcamp.com/album/never-let-you-go-ep

Never Let You Go 12 Inch Single

Now Available on Limited Edition Compact Disc at https://mistrust.bandcamp.com/album/yellow-and-grey-ep-2

"Yellow and Grey" recalls Mistrust's recent train journey to Port Sunlight (the historic workers' village in Wirral, UK), on the ageing yellow and grey trains that pass through the village. These trains are being replaced by shiny new modern trains which are also yellow and grey! Hence the line "Yellow and Grey is here to stay!" The song's overall themes are nostalgia and new beginnings!

"Yellow and Grey" includes a line from the poem "From a Railway Carriage" by Robert Louis Stevenson (can you spot it?), and there's also a nod to the classic Kraftwerk song "Trans Europe Express" with Mistrust recording a German language version of Yellow and Grey ("gelb und grau") which is released alongside the original song.

Both songs are taken from Mistrust's forthcoming album which is out in Spring 2023.

Tim Blackburn, the UK singer-songwriter and remixer who records as Mistrust, is back with a new single called "Yellow and Grey". It marks his first new material since the release of his single "Never Let You Go" last year.

Yellow And Grey

Available Now on Limited Edition CD at https://mistrust.bandcamp.com/album/yellow-and-grey-ep-2

Dies ist die deutsche Version des Songs Yellow and Grey von Mistrust.
"Yellow and Grey" erinnert an Mistrusts kürzliche Zugfahrt nach Port Sunlight (dem historischen Arbeiterdorf in Wirral, Großbritannien), in den alternden gelben und grauen Zügen, die durch das Dorf fahren. Diese Züge werden durch glänzende neue moderne Züge ersetzt, die auch gelb und grau sind! Daher die Zeile "Gelb und Grau ist hier für immer !" Die übergeordneten Themen des Songs sind Nostalgie und Neuanfänge!

Here To Stay

What's it all about? S.O.A.P. is the second single from my forthcoming album "Sunlight".

The album will be released out on Friday 12th May 2023.

S.O.A.P. is a song about the historic village of Port Sunlight in Wirral, United Kingdom.

It features guest vocals from Kathryn Blackburn.

There's a nod to some of my favourite bands including Kraftwerk, OMD, early Human League and Depeche Mode.

I'm Waiting for the Man

PLAYLIST BELOW  - PLEASE SUPPORT THE ARTISTS YOU LIKE THE SOUND OF!

This is my first recording as part of my plan to take a wide range of new and unheard music into venues around the UK to promote the overlooked talent that surrounds us.

My performances in venues will be accompanied by screens showing information and links to each artist as they are played. Feedback and support will be encouraged. It is my aim to integrate live performances from artists local to where each show takes place, once I am happy with how it is running. 

I'd love to hear your thoughts on this mix and read your comments. If you love it, share it. Let's support each other and make the music scene better for everyone in it. Music and life isn't a competition, that's just a lie perpetuated by wankers who don't want you to be happy.

Thank you,

Will x
