Dual - Tocsin Tocsin is the long awaited new Dual album available now. Having built up a substantial back catalogue of outstanding releases on various labels including Drone Records, CEE Recordings, Coombe Records, Dirter, Evelyn Records, Fourth Dimension plus many more, Dual now release a new full length album as part of the evergrowing series of CD releases on the Belgian label Mystery Sea. Tocsin has been described like a journey in sound split into six parts that builds, floats, drifts and then declines when least expected, but brings together all the elements of beauty and darkness within a single feeling but without overstating. As ever Dual's subtle textured movement rises and develops within each part with measured transitions, imagine watching back a slow motion replay in slow motion, you might just notice the ever so slight changes... Many years ago Staalplaat remarked how Dual instill ambience that is raw and unpolished, resembling more an empty factory building than a clean room in your house... further still if Tocsin was a dream, you'd probably feel sad & happy, immersed & suspended, cold & hot in the hours afterwards... needless to say Tocsin has depth that allows the subtle patterns of processed shimmering beauty to rise in only a way that Dual manage from just six coiled steel strings and a plank of wood. listen to mp3 samples and more info at www.mysterysea.net www.myspace.com/dualuk email: info@dual.co.uk |

The Utopia Project Dual perform the soundtrack to the radio drama The Utopia Project on The 2012 Show on Resonance FM in conjunction with BBC Raw Talent. The Utopia Project by Rob Kinsman "Right now, people are selling virtual treasure in online computer games for real-world money. This year, the industry is worth an estimated $900 million, all for goods that don’t exist. In the year 2012 the games are the biggest industry in the world. People in sweat-shops are forced to play the games in order to scrape together a pitiful living. And one man is about to find that it’s not easy to stay optimistic in a virtual world where danger and corruption lurk around every corner. But the games are a great place to meet people and fall in love, though even that may prove to be more trouble than in real life…" Performed by George Dillon, Tam Dean Burn & Denise Evans Music & sound composed by Julian Coope & Colin Bradley and performed by Dual Produced by Alisdair McGregor Directed by Tam Dean Burn & Tanushka Marah The Utopia Project on The 2012 Show Sunday 13th November 9.30pm till 10.30pm Tune in to 104.4FM in London, UK & http://www.resonancefm.com |
