Lavelle's new record label have signed up Dan F.
"... in 2006 Dan was signed on by legendary producer James Lavelle to become one of the core artists for the Mo Wax founder's new label Surrender All." (source)

According to Dan F's website he's already prduced some, as yet unreleased, UNKLE remixes of Reign, Inside, I Need Something Stronger off Never Never Land, and the (rumoured) first single for the forthcoming UNKLE album, Burn My Shadow.

Also on his website:
"Following a couple drunken nights out in Hong Kong, James Lavelle commissioned Dan to remix "Inside" and "I need Something Stronger", both from the last album Never Never Land, as part of a collectors 12" project. In addition Dan also remixed "Burn My Shadow" off the forthcoming new album, which features Ian Astbury (The Cult) on vocals. This will be part of the 12" singles package which also features mixes by Layo & Bushwacka and Junkie XL."

The official UNKLE site is to finally get a proper updated. Let's just hope it keeps up to date a bit more this time around. No word on how long it will be before it's ready.

Bill Psonis aka Spacetrooper has just set up a new Podacast here. This show is dedicated to Mo' Wax record label. The podcast will feature rare and not so rare tunes from the Mo' Wax back catalog and related labels/artists.

James has set up a new Record Label called Surrender All. Already released that's licenced to this label is the Leap Of Faith track that was on the Goal! soundtrack. Their first major release should be UNKLE's 3rd and yet to be titled album. This is penciled in for Later this year. More Info as I g et it.

Thanks to Google Videos you can now watch all the UNKLE videos in the downloads section, without having to actually download them.
Videos will be available for download, but due to webspace problems only one or two will be available at any given time.

Surrender have confirmed that there will be a limited edition Glow In The Dark version of the UNKLE77 Soft Monster. Although as of yet there is no release date for them

The black and white versions on sale here.

James finally gets around to releasing the vinal version of Never Never Land he wanted to from the very start. Much like the initial CD/DVD, it's a hard cardboard box that the record covers slide into. The records themselves will be the picture discs.

more pictures: one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,

Watch out, there are plenty of new UNKLE bootlegs floating about. First off we had a few UNKLE tracks appearing on some of the DJ Shadow 12" bootlegs, UNKLE Sounds mixes booted to CD, then we had the UNKLE Def Beats. Now it seems the Japanese trilogy (Ape Shall Never Kill Ape, Rock On and Last Orgy 3) along with Rabbit In your Headlights have been commited to dodgy vinyl. eBayers beware.
