    Warm on the heels of the critically-acknowledged Nochexxx-curated Greatest Hits 10” Can't Get Started comes a full-length 12” vinyl oddity from Cambridge's Pete Um. This time it's a reissue of some old news from 2003, The New Album CD-R redux, in an almost pointlessly limited edition of 100. This is the birth of modern Um, with the sufferheaded voice in stark digital settings and gaffered samples, now expertly remastered for vinyl.

    Contains sleevenotes/lyric insert, custom-made tricky stickered frontage, hand-bodged hole-flap and heavily sexy PVC sleevery. Whole thing cost a bloody fortune :)

    Includes unlimited streaming of The New Album via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

I was so hungover, I walked out of the supermarket with my basket
Are you afraid to make a false start
Are you afraid to hear a Frenchman fart?
Are you afraid to go that far
Before you dare to speak to me
Are you prepared to make a statement?
Would you ever like to speak?
I'm just a real human man
I am not the king of beats.
I was so hungover, I walked out of the supermarket with my basket

about

Pete Um Cambridge, UK

"A master of the miniature electro-acoustic song-poem, a form he has more or less invented and crystallised himself, his work displays a sardonic wit combined with a healthy misanthropy, in marvellous micro-collages of voice, instruments, samples, and electronics."

-Ergo Phizmiz
