Expanded edition. Crepuscule presents a new collaborative project by Julie Campbell (aka LoneLady), Stephen Mallinder (Wrangler, Cabaret Voltaire) and Benge (Wrangler, John Foxx). Titled Clinker, their acclaimed 2021 album is now available as a 10 track CD featuring 4 bonus tracks remixed by Gabe Gurnsey (of Factory Floor) and Pete Morgan (aka UXB). Electronic Sound magazine made Clinker one of it's albums of the year in 2021. "Clinker conjures visions of decaying concrete flyover pillars, stained with the oxide of it's iron trusses, and the empty spaces between them. This Ballardian grimness comes partly from Stephen Mallinder's voice. His distorted, disrupted evocations, contained in gaseous chambers of reverb and tape echo, are so identifiable with the Xerox aesthetic of early Cabaret Voltaire, and that sense of 1970s dystopia they evoked, that it's hard not to just, you know, go there... Clinker works because it makes features of it's limitations - the signal path hisses of Benge's vintage synths, scrapes of plectrum on steel as Campbell's fingers worry at the strings, or the treatment of Mal's voice. Clinker? Corker, more like."
