PRE-ORDER: https://mute.ffm.to/backtothecatalogue
Musician, composer, writer, photographer and filmmaker Barry Adamson has announced details of a series of long out of print catalogue releases on Mute, starting with the white vinyl edition of his 1996 album, Oedipus Schmoedipus, limited to 1000 copies, out on 29 July 2022.
Adamson’s 1996 album Oedipus Schmoedipus features collaborations with Nick Cave, The Associates’ Billy Mackenzie and Jarvis Cocker – listen to a new edit of ‘Set the Controls for the Heart of the Pelvis’, featuring Cocker’s inimitable vocals:
The reissue series continues on 23 September with the Stranger on the Sofa album (2006), available for the first time on vinyl (pressed initially as double red vinyl), and Back to the Cat (2008) on clear vinyl – both originally on Adamson’s own Central Control label – alongside a strictly limited edition (1000 copies) antique blue vinyl issue of 2021’s Steal Away EP of new songs, originally released digitally on Mute.
Then, on 2 December I Will Set You Free (2012) and Know Where To Run (2016), get the reissue treatment (on curacao and silver vinyl, respectively) before Mute continues the series, reissuing Adamson’s entire catalogue.
