WARP to re-release Sabres of Paradises Sabresonic and Haunted Dancehall

Two seminal albums from Sabres of Paradise, ‘Sabresonic’ and ‘Haunted Dancehall’, are set to be re-issued by Warp Records in collaboration with surviving members Jagz Kooner and Gary Burns, alongside the estate of the late Andrew Weatherhall.

Three decades on from their initial release, the two albums will be released as CD and double-LP classic editions and have been remastered by Matt Colton.

“We just thought it’s time to go back and revisit this,” says Kooner. “To let people know that it was a pivotal moment in time, not just for us, but for a lot of other people as well. These are albums that really stand the test of time. People need to hear them live. Andrew, of course, wouldn’t be with us onstage. But we like to think he’d be standing in the wings, giving us the nod.”

It’s fueled by a sense of gentle instability and momentum, with haunting vocals and piercing synths.

Speaking about the track, BICEP said: “As we look back on our journey with the CHROMA series, weve always aimed to strike a balance between looking to the past and embracing the future. Although we werent part of the clubbing scene during its heyday in the 90s, being outside of it has given us a fresh perspective thats allowed us to reimagine these influences in a modern context.

“By taking elements from this era and merging them with our own sound, weve created a fusion which helps contextualize this sound in a more modern way. This approach has enabled us to stay true to the essence of the 90s while infusing it with the styles were known for.

“This final CHROMA release, ‘BRILLO’ embodies this vision, blending euphoric, 90s-esque riffs with soulful vocals, adding a touch of softness that subtly casts a shadow over the series.”
