Wrangler – Theme From Wrangler
Mal from Cabaret Voltaire joins analogue synth tag-team for inscrutable electronic shadow-play. Hear it now!
AS AVID VIEWERS of Homes Under The Hammer or Grand Designs will be aware, there are often old Cold War nuclear bunkers for sale. Theme From Wrangler is a track for the winning bidders for such properties to play at their housewarming parties. Wrangler is a project involving Stephen Mallinder from Sheffield electronic enigmas Cabaret Voltaire, Phil Winter of Tunng, and Benge, producer at east London analogue cave Memetune and a member of John Foxx And The Maths. Theme From Wrangler is a mechanoid tension theme featuring a mysterious whispered narrative from Mal and, periodically, what sound like muted echoes of Da Ya Think I’m Sexy (but only if Rod Stewart’s convinced he’s being pursued by mind-robbing government spooks, and is hiding out in the abovementioned nuclear shelter).
Their debut album LA Spark is out in May.
