29 tracks. LTM is pleased to announce extended CD reissues of both original albums by Dislocation Dance, the cult indie-pop pioneers who recorded for the New Hormones and Rough Trade labels. Dislocation Dance formed in Manchester in late 1978, settling on a core line-up of Ian Runacres, Paul Emmerson, Kathryn Way, Dick Harrison and Andy Diagram. After making their live debut at the celebrated Factory Club, the band released a series of inventive and eclectic records on New Hormones (the label founded by the Buzzcocks), including two albums in 1981 alone, Slip That Disc! and Music Music Music. After touring the UK and North America with the likes of Orange Juice and the Pale Fountains, the band relocated to Rough Trade records for their second full album, Midnight Shift, in 1983, which featured the near-hits Show Me and Violette. The original group split in 1984, with Runacres later founding several labels and the band Brightside, and Andy Diagram joining a chart-bound James. Dislocation Dance reformed for a Japanese tour in June 2000, and a new album, Cromer, in 2005. This newly expanded and remastered edition of Music Music Music /Slip That Disc! features 74 minutes of music and no less than 29 tracks, including non album singles and b-sides. The booklet features all-new artwork, as well as a detailed artist biography. Also available on LTM: Midnight Shift + Singles (LTMCD 2463).
