Booka Shade will release a special digital-only album, Cinematic Shades, later this month.The collection, which has been put together to showcase the slower and more chilled out side of the duo’s material, will feature special edits of tracks from their back catalogue, stretching all the way back to “Vertigo” from 2004’s Memento album.It also includes the previously unreleased Trentemøller remix of “Outskirts” from this year’s The Sun & The Neon Light album, as well as an exclusive new track in the form of  “Paper Plane.” Don’t go looking at your usual download retailer for it, however, as it will only be available through iTunes.

Life after bands: an idea with the most negative of implications. But there is indeed much vibrant life, brimming with heart and soul, left for James Ford and Jas Shaw, collectively known as Simian Mobile Disco. The name for their production/DJing outfit sings ballads about their musical history, from the very first word – Simian, a psychedelic indie band that had its moment of taking over the world in the early noughties, with Jas on guitar and James keeping time on drums. Simian celebrated two critically acclaimed albums, globe-encompassing tours, working with Brian Eno (on their second album, “We Are Your Friends,” in ’02), even songs being featured in international adverts (most notably in a Peugeot 1007 advertisement) but, like all good things, an end was inescapable.
