DESCRIPTION:
VocaL Downbeat Electronica, Deep House & Breaks mixes- Four remixes of tracks from LoneLady's "Former Things" Featuring reworks by The Other Two (Stephen Morris of New Order), DJ Stingray, DMX Krew, and LoneLady herself.
Speaking in-depth about the remix EP, LoneLady explains: 'As a huge fan of all things Stephen Morris, I was beyond delighted when he was up for doing a remix of "(There Is) No Logic’" The result is an ecstatic merging of LoneLady and New Order - with amazing attention to detail and driving propulsion so recognisably and brilliantly Stephen-esque - he’s created an irresistible, swaggering banger! It's a dream come true!'
'DMX Krew’s remix of Fear Colours has got the playfulness ramped right up with some cheeky but soulful nods…It has shades of a late night at the studio with Wendy & Lisa, the champagne corks and Linn Drums-a-popping, and I love it!'
'Working with Bill (Skibbe) again was a joy and we had lots of fun with this. I had dug out a couple of old-school hip-hop samples and reworked a section of "(There Is) No Logic". Me and Bill then went to town creating choppy sections and textures, adding tons of percussion, congas and a wild guitar solo. I was re-reading a favourite book at the time - Wide Sargasso Sea and the vivid colours and tropical atmosphere definitely infused the mix. Enjoy the journey - Manchester meets Jamaica via Michigan!'
'The genesis of the Former Things album was early electro / techno, and DJ Stingray’s Vigilance Mix provides the perfect conclusion to the EP, coming full circle with "Threats" receiving the authentic Detroit techno treatment. Revelling in dystopian shadows, brute beats and an ambience of shivery fear - just how I like to end a party.'

Signed to Warp, LoneLady is a pseudonym of Manchester, UK musician, songwriter and producer Julie Campbell. Her psychogeography-inspired second album Hinterland was released in March 2015 to widespread critical acclaim, and shows dance and funk influences coming to the fore. The Quietus called it a "vibrant and urgent combination of genealogy and vision – and it is this that truly makes it a masterpiece."
''Groove It Out'' was released November 2014 on 12'' and download and featured a remix by Ekoplekz.
''Bunkerpop'' was released February 2015 on 12'' and download and featured a remix by Wrangler.
All four singles released off Hinterland made the A-Playlist on BBC-6Music.
Her starkly urgent début album Nerve Up was released to critical acclaim in 2010. The NME called it a "unique, brilliant debut ... we should celebrate LoneLady as the arrival of a fresh and invigorating voice whose talent transcends time and space and influence"[2] and it also drew praise from music journalist Paul Morley. From this, two singles were released: Immaterial (Nov 2009, Warp) and Intuition (Dec 2009, Warp).
LoneLady’s influences include: Gang Of Four, Wire, , Cabaret Voltaire, A Certain Ratio.
