  Goldfrapp release WE ARE GLITTER - Supernature remixes
For US Release October 17.

Riding high on the success of their third album Supernature, red-hot GOLDFRAPP – Alison Goldfrapp and Will Gregory – have a new offering for U.S. fans only with WE ARE GLITTER. We Are Glitter is a collection of the best remixes of tracks from Goldfrapp’s critically acclaimed Supernature. Adventurous and risk-taking, We Are Glitter celebrates and re-imagines Goldfrapp and Supernature with each track selected by the band.

The album features work from white-hot remixers The Flaming Lips, DFA, C2 (aka Carl Craig), Benny Benassi, Ewan Pearson, François K, Alan Braxe & Fred Falke and many more, most of which have not been previously available commercially. We Are Glitter's highlights include alluring remixes of such songs as “Number 1” and “Ooh La La,”. We Are Glitter also contains the special bonus track “Strict Machine (We Are Glitter mix),” a song from their second studio album Black Cherry, remixed by Goldfrapp themselves. This new version of “Strict Machine” also appears on the soundtrack for the upcoming feature film Miami Vice and the original album version has just been licensed for use in the new Verizon TV advertising campaign which launched July 25.

Goldfrapp, an electrifying concert attraction, also received attention for their performances of “Ooh La La” on the Late Show With Letterman and the Tonight Show with Jay Leno earlier this year. Supernature, released March 7 2006, is an unbeatable glam/pop/electronic/dance hybrid that was hailed by Blender (four stars), Time (“5 Great Albums” page, 3/27/06) Rolling Stone (“"Toxic and delicious, Supernature will make you do bad things--and like it, 3/6/06) and England’s NME (“the best pop album of 2005”).

  Goldfrapp Release New Single 'Rocket' in March
Remixes from Richard X, Penguin Prison, Grum and Tiësto

Musical pioneers Goldfrapp announce their brand new single ‘Rocket’, to be released through Mute March 8th (UK) / 9th (US) 2010. Fizzy with inspiration, ‘Rocket’ is a goose-bump brilliant tune and is taken from the duo’s fifth album ‘Head First’, released in March.

Rocket‘ is written and produced by band mates Alison Goldfrapp and Will Gregory and comes complete with new mixes by Richard X, Penguin Prison and Grum, and Tiësto, and is accompanied by a fabulous video directed by Kim Gehrig (Calvin Harris, Primal Scream, Santogold).

Meanwhile ‘Head First' is Goldfrapp's most powerful trip to date, a speedy rush of synth optimism, euphoria, fantasy and romance. With life affirming lyrics and stellar production it lifts off at full tilt and takes us on a journey to the heart of 2010.

The diversity, ambition and direction of the new album highlights Goldfrapp as true agenda-setters and modern musical icons. ‘Head First' follows the critically acclaimed ‘Seventh Tree', and is the latest in a brilliantly consistent body of work - from the captivating electronic balladry of Mercury nominated debut ‘Felt Mountain' and its distorted-dancefloor follow-up, ‘Black Cherry' to the glitterball glamour of ‘Supernature' which came out in summer 2005 and went on to sell over a million copies worldwide.

'Rocket is basically brilliant – a charismatic and elegant modern pop tune with lyrics that are by turns wistful and dynamic' - Popjustice
