EXCLUSIVE – SPECIAL GUEST!

We are very excited to bring you news of an exclusive one show-only guest DJ appearance at Recoil’s event at Galaxy Theatre in Santa Ana, CA on 24th October. A certain Mr Martin L. Gore will be appearing to DJ at an aftershow DM/Recoil party.

Martin has graciously agreed to appear just for this event to spin a collection of his favourite tracks. Many will be aware that Martin likes to DJ occasionally and reveal his enthusiasm for electronica.

DJ Daniel Barassi will be hosting the party as well as DJ-ing himself and there will be a meet & greet session too – so please join us for this special celebration and don’t forget to bring your treasured items to be signed!

Martin is working on a new project with former Depeche Mode band member, Vince Clarke. Vince revealed the collaboration via Twitter, by saying: “Am working on the track ‘Zaat’. Collaborating with Martin (Gore) (from Basildon)”.

More dates have been added into Recoil’s US tour. We couldn’t leave Texas out so ‘A Strange Hour’ will be presented in Dallas at Trees on Saturday 16th October. We hear that the ‘Trees’ venue is legendary and, following the great event in Austin last spring, Alan is very happy to be coming back to the Lone Star State. In fact, this will be the opening US event on the tour so come along and be the first to witness the new additions to Recoil’s presentation.

Architect will also be appearing and there will almost certainly be a special Recoil/DM party afterwards (Alan will attend) which your show ticket will allow you access to. So bring along your CDs and vinyl if you want to get those signed – more details on that very soon. (more…)

Due to popular demand, an additional show has been added into Recoil’s US tour in California. ‘A Strange Hour’ will be presented at the Galaxy Theatre in Santa Ana, CA on 24th October. Architect & Conjure One will both be appearing at this event. Tickets

After many requests from Canada, we also have news of an event in Montreal at Club Soda on 28th October. We will bring you the ticket link for this show as soon as it goes on sale.

Finally, there has been a venue change in Chile – because of high demand, a larger capacity venue has been found. This Recoil event will now take place at Blondie, Santiago on November 3rd.

Special guests will be announced soon for all the upcoming South American shows.
