Will Union Jack ever make a comeback?

I was just strolling through my psy collection the other day and decided to give Cockroach another listen. I was amazed by how good this sounds even today. Union Jack doesn't just make music with a 303, he gives it a SOUL!! So what ever happened to him? How could he just dissapear from the face of the planet after a rather short career? Anyone know if he'll ever decide to release some new stuff?

well reporting what on myspace is written:

28 october 2008

 

 

It's been a while since we mentioned the above artists in the same breath. I'm sure some of you are now reminiscing of days gone by, remembering where you were when you first heard Madagascar or Two Full Moons……. ahhhh.

 

Simon and new band member Paul Brodgen are busy in the studio creating a new Union Jack masterpiece but this new album (ALBUM - YES THAT'S WHAT I SAID!) wont be out until late next year.

 

So to keep your spirits up we are deciding upon possibly releasing a Union Jack Collectors Edition, but we would like your input first so we can put together the best package.

 

We would love to hear if you would actually want a reissue of There Will Be No Armageddon – this will be truly for the fans – it will be a remastered, repackaged 2CD set containing the original album along with live versions of tracks from gigs this year, some hard to find Union Jack remixes, some forgotten classics and maybe even some new tracks!

 

As you know we actually deleted the original album a few years ago and its now hard to buy copies anywhere. So even if you've got the original release, maybe you want a brand spanking new one.

 

So please let us know as soon as if you would want Union Jack back in your life and maybe your Christmas will come early!

 

If the above is a success then we will also do an ART OF TRANCE edition too .......!!! "

 

seems you have your answer :) they are coming back!

 

 

btw, not topic related but this made me laugh:

"top 10 lost goatrancer habits:

 

10. Thinking that all the answers to life's mystries were held in RA Wilson's books.

9. Feeling proud when someone called you a freak.

8. Worshiping the Roland 303 like it was some sort of machine god.

7. Mixing DAT tapes.

6. Writing "604" everywhere and laughing at people who didn't understand what it meant.

5. Thinking that the more different colors you wore at the same time, the smarter you looked.

4. Ending all your posts with "Bom Shankar".

3. Saying "namaste" instead of "hello".

2. Believing that dancing while tripping your nuts off was a spiritual experience.

1. Thinking that listening to goatrance made you an intelectually superior being!!"

 

eheh SO true.

That is amazing news, new Union Jack album at the end of the year! And the two tracks on myspace are in the same style like their old stuff, awesome!

 

Too bad Claudio isnt a part of the revival, i always liked Terra Ferma much more then Art of Trance. I wonder what he is up to these days.
