WELCOME TO THE SING-SING INSTAGRAM. Lovely to see you. x
A few of you over the years have hinted that you would love to see us reissue our albums. Good idea! We always felt that we were a bit out of step with what was going on when they came out and we went from pillar-to-post somewhat with labels but ....…..(drum roll)…...25 years after our debut album The Joy Of Sing-Sing was released, well - it’s here again in a brand shiny new costume in lots of different formats with various lovely new people collaborating here, there and everywhere.
Produced by electronic whizz-kid programmer Mark Van Hoen @locust_mvh, The Joy Of Sing-Sing is 12 (or is it 13? 😉) tracks of shimmering electronic textures, hypnotic melodies and exquisitely restrained vocals that felt equally indebted to classic pop as to forward-thinking electronica.
It’s been expertly remastered from the half-inch tapes by @kevinvanbergen. Plus we also decided that we should have a sleeve redesign. It’s quite unusual to do this but the original one was in our original label Poptones' house-style and since this is on our own label Aerial Records, well, it needed a new approach and so we enlisted the talents of @chrisbigg_design, once designer at v23/4AD.

Today, we are leading by re-releasing the Feels Like Summer single (digital only). The video, directed by Kieran Evans @kierboyo, has been remastered too.
Release date for The Joy Of Sing-Sing is October 23rd 2026 and we will be posting Sing-Sing stuff mostly on here so PLEASE make sure and follow that account. All the links to what I am about to describe are in the bio.
So. Formats (deep breath):
12-track translucent yellow vinyl LP
2 CD deluxe edition featuring the remastered album plus a bonus disc of B-sides and previously unreleased tracks (demos and a radio session).
Limited @dinkededition Archive Edition (400 only) LP on transparent orange vinyl, including an obi strip, signed insert and bonus CD.
Americas only orange-glitter vinyl with mp3 downloads of unreleased tracks on released on @kaninerecords
Streaming/digital - the usual.
That’s enough for now, isn’t it?
We really hope you love this as much as we do. x

Another piece from overseas; this time the Japanese magazine Quip from March 1999....taken at The Water Rats (most probably) like the previous band photo....

Another interview, this time from the vaults and we are posting this because it's recently been revisited and updated. It originally appeared in revered French magazine Magic! in 1998 upon release of the first Feels Like Summer on Bella Union.
Writer and friend @cbasterra, has published it again online on @section26_ with a lovely intro to reflect on the reissue of The Joy Of Sing-Sing.

Merci beaucoup, Christophe!

I did an interview with @shannam_ for his excellent blog Say It With Garage Flowers. It's mainly about @sing_singofficial but it covers some of the period before and some more up-to-date stuff too, eg my album and the more recent collaborations I have been involved with.

One of my favourite musical collaborations that I've been part of has just been reissued.
'Keep It That Way' is a lovely duet with Lisa of @sing_singofficial which I sang on after she had sung on several @departureloungemusic songs around the turn of the century ('Music For Pleasure' on 'Out Of Here' and 'Over The Side' and 'Animals On My Mind' on 'Too Late To Die Young').
Sing Sing (indie dreampop duo Lisa O'Neill and Emma Anderson) were our label mates at Bella Union for a while and their ace debut album, 'The Joy Of Sing Sing' from 2001 has been remastered and expanded, with 'Keep It That Way' UNHIDDEN! It was originally a secret bonus track on the CD, and can now be found on the 2CD extended version of the reissue and on the streaming platforms.
Check it out!
(I think this is the only photo of Lisa and me together - singing at South by Southwest, Austin, Texas in 2000)

HAPPY RELEASE DAY TO THE JOY OF SING-SING (2026 REMASTER)!
It’s been really fun and interesting putting this together from start to finish. The album got a little lost back in 2001 but it still sounds fresh and intriguing…….it’s thankfully stood the test of time well.
A quick recap…
The record was expertly remastered from the original half-inch tapes by @kevinvanbergen (who did the recent Lush reissues and a whole host of other cool stuff) . Kevin also cut the lacquers for the vinyl. He tried to keep the format as true to the original whilst updating and improving the audio for today’s listeners.
We also enlisted the talents of @chrisbigg_design (also familiar to Lush and @4ad fans) to design a new sleeve which is gorgeous but doesn’t totally reject the vibe of the original Poptones release.
The CD has a bonus disc with b-sides and rarities (eg never heard before demos and a Spanish acoustic radio session).
We have released the album on our resurrected Aerial Records whilst the lovely people at @kaninerecords are putting out vinyl only in the US, Canada and Mexico.

OUT NOW | Sing-Sing
Some albums simply get better with time. Others wait patiently for the world to catch up. As it celebrates its 25th anniversary, The Joy of Sing-Sing feels less like an overlooked curiosity and more like one of the great lost British albums of its era.
We just LOVED being involved in this beautiful reissue.

+ 12” x 12” signed print*
+ CD of bonus tracks

Thank you to everyone who attended the Bandcamp listening party last night for The Joy Of Sing-Sing (2026 Remaster). We had a blast and we hope that it was at least informative as well as interesting and lively...(and thanks to @locust_mvh for participating too).
The record is out tomorrow but, in the meantime, here is an illustration @lisawrake did of us based on the Ladybird books series from when a lot of of us were kids!. Lisa used to do flyers for our shows but, alas, we can't seem to find any but we are sure this was used for one along the way somewhere...

Over the next week or so we are going to post some gig shots from the early days and line-up. They are probably going to be a little jumbled up as this was the time before Smartphones and therefore dating and locations are not embedded (but we do know that they are all in London) plus we have cobbled these together from different sources, so apologies if they are not in chronological order.
We do know that venues we did headline, 1998 - 2000, included The Water Rats, The Bull and Gate, The Monarch, The Spitz and The Notting Hill Arts Club.
We also made it to Copenhagen, Paris (thanks @cbasterra) and New York for CMJ in 2000.
The first photo (thanks Poppy) is of early Sing-Sing line-up which was l-r: -
Emma - guitars and bvs
Michael 'Shifty' Scrivens @shiftyscrivens - bass
Poppy Gonzalez @poppygsoundandvision - keyboards
Lisa - vocals
Mig Morland - drums
Then, one of Emma from the same show (we think it might be The Water Rats).
Then some of another show taken by @edmonds.karen - we are not sure where ..... Lisa, Shifty and Mig, Lisa again and lastly, Emma weirdly playing her Spanish guitar which she thought never left home!
If anyone has any clues when or where these shows were, please let us know!
