Kicking of their latest set, recent album precursor ‘Papillon’ wastes no time dropping some bass propelled arpeggio goodness, as Simon and Paul lay down the grooves for Union Jack’s depth and power to take centre stage.
‘Submerge’ drips with string-driven melodic beauty that envelops you in its liquid riffs before ‘Triclops’ growling bottom end and hypnotic chops draw you in deeper still.
‘Longhorn’s pounding heart is peppered with off kilter riffs before the rail-track rhythms of ‘Mainlining’ take over, guiding you on an aural expedition that dovetails with the off beat pads of ‘Blink’ that draws you into its snaking harmonies.
‘Lifeblood’s comb-filtered vocal samples and sinister synths provide a gentle interlude before ‘Vowel’s minimal bass and percussion develop into an expansive excursion, taking you into Pylon Pigs’ home straight.
The ‘Dark Major’s jazzy lilting pulse is interspersed with warped glitch before ‘Funnelweb’s epic rolling riffs completes a stunning return for Union Jack.
PYLON PIGS will be released 14th September on CD and download.
This will be followed a week later by the digital only PYLON PIGS CLUB EP containing DJ friendly club mixes of 3 album tracks, and 2 exclusive tracks - 'Vocoder Allstars' and 'Two Full Moons And A Trout' (Orkedia Remix).

This is some great news for those, who are anticipating this album, because just one week earlier it was scheduled for 12th October.
"Triclops" can be found on youtube, while "Longhorn" is available for free download through Union Jack myspace page, after adding an e-mail to the list.

Does this means that the album will all be made of edited (likely shorter) versions?

I'm also excited about that. It's been in the making for ten months or so and Orkidea was still adding some new elements to it.
If someone would like to hear the difference between the 'beta' versions, just compare the one he played in his Scandinavia 002 Mix and a few months later - in Radio Unity.
'‘Blink’ that draws you into its snaking harmonies.'
I bet everyone will be REALLY surprised by this one.

Being a longtime Platipus, Union Jack and Two Full Moons fan I'm also very excited to have the remix officially released It actually changed even more before the release based on some comments from Simon Berry. Took 18 months to finish hehe
And btw the album is absolutely brilliant!! Got a sneak preview promo copy some weeks ago and it's so far the #1 EDM album of the year to me. Old school and innovative at the same time. Not an easy combo to achieve! 10/10
