FreeBass "You Don't Know This About Me" from the debut EP - Two Worlds Collide
Finally: the FreeBass EP you thought you'd never see and thought you'd never hear!
24 Hour Service Station is thrilled to announce a worldwide distribution deal with Peter Hook’s new record label,
Haçienda Records UK! Two Worlds Collide, the second release from Hacienda Records UK,is the long awaited, much anticipated and often rumored debut FreeBass EP.
Peter Hook (bass) - New Order | Joy Division
Andy Rourke (guitar) - The Smiths
Gary Mounfield (bass) - The Stone Roses & Primal Scream
Nat Watson (guitar)
Phil Murphy (keyboards & programming) Man Ray
Paul Kehoe (drums)
Two Worlds Collide brings together famous guest vocalists including Tim Burgess (Charlatans UK), Pete Wylie (The Mighty Wah!), Howard Marks (Mr Nice) and band mainstay Peter Hook across the EPs six tracks.
FreeBass, originally born out of a conversation between Mancunian bass legends Mani, Hooky and Rourkie some five years ago has been through a long gestation process, with Hooky originally auditioning vocalists like an indie Simon Cowell. Finding the right lead singer originally proved arduous so Mani suggested that the band approached their famous friends to contribute vocals with Howard, Tim and Pete all responding to the call.
Opening the EP is Tim Burgess contribution, "You Don't Know This About Me", a melodic & dramatically epic tune. A bass line reminiscent of New Order's first single "Ceremony" surrounds Tim"s vocal, which he wrote and recorded from his home in LA.
"I think FreeBass is a great band for bass players, a great concept no-one else has done, and there are three really strong characters there that've all played in extremely brilliant bands." - Tim Burgess of Charlatans UK

Yeah, I can get behind this. I'm hearing a Depeche Mode-esque remix in your future, too... ;-)
