Synthpop pioneers Erasure are back with 'Tomorrow’s World', the band’s first album in more than four years. The new album is releases in autumn 2011 and is produced by one of the dance scene’s most exciting new talents, Frankmusik (production credits include Lady Gaga, Pet Shop Boys, Ellie Goulding) and mixed by Rob Orton.
'Tomorrow’s World' was written in New York, London, and at Vince Clarke’s cabin studio in Maine following a short break, which found Andy Bell recording and releasing his second solo album 'Non Stop', and Vince Clarke reuniting with former Yazoo partner Alison Moyet for a recent tour. It was recorded in Maine, London and Los Angeles between January and June 2011, with Vince using his vintage collection of analog synths for the final touch. The end result is a collection of electronic songs that sound totally contemporary and classic at the
same time. All songs are written by Bell and Clarke.
From Lady Gaga to La Roux, the futurist, electronic sound Erasure championed is more relevant today than ever and once again re-charging the global music scene. The award-winning duo of Vince Clarke and Andy
Bell unleashed on the nation a succession of both influential and chart-topping pop anthems. Songs like 'A Little Respect', 'Sometimes', 'Victim Of Love', 'Ship Of Fools', 'Chains Of Love', 'The Circus', and 'Breathe,' ensured a formidable presence on the singles charts complemented by five consecutive No 1 albums including 'The Innocents', 'Wild!', 'Chorus' and the beginning of the worldwide Abba revival 'Abba-esque'.
After Erasure’s triumphant return to the stage for Short Circuit presents Mute at the Roundhouse, a one-off performance which saw Vince Clarke perform with very special guests Alison Moyet and Feargal Sharkey, Erasure recently embarked on their Total Pop! Tour a series of dates for summer 2011 playing their hits as part of Forestry Commission Live Music, where acts perform in spectacular woodland locations across the country.
