SUBWAY COLLECTIVE FEATURING HEATON TRACK USED BY FREEMANTLE MEDIA - AUG 2009

- Production company resp for X-factor & American Idol use subway track

.....................................................................................................................................

International production company, Freemantle Media, responsible for programmes such as American Idol, The X Factor and The Bill have approached Subway Collective & Heaton to use one of their tracks in their new online drama series Freak. The track "Breathe" was featured on the unofficial album release from Heaton entitled 'Interlude' but was then given an official release as a bonus track on Heaton's Don't Wanna Be Lonely single in 2007. The company discovered the track whilst searching for artists on the social networking site MySpace.

FREAK is a coming of age story targeting teenagers and young adults. The series will play for 8 weeks (2 episodes a week) on MySpace this summer, from July 20 to September 10. Six advertising partners - including Procter & Gamble - are reportedly paying up to £250,000 to have their names integrated into the storyline, and observers believe such an approach could prove popular. The track "Breathe" is also available on the 2007 Heaton Single "Don't Wanna Be Lonely".  Listen and download now from iTunes.

YAZOO RECONNECTED EP / REMIXES

Interview with Vince Clarke in the Nottingham Evening Post pre Yazoo tour

I thought that would be one of the two least likely songs, along with I Before E Except After C. Are you going to be attempting that one?

"We might do something with that track again. I heard a really interesting remix of it, actually. But we’ll see. "

"Hats off to the Subways tho for a good job on the unremixable I Before E its the only decent mix of the lot."

Ellie Says:

"I can’t believe Yazoo are back together! They were my favourite band of the 80’s!!! I have heard a remix of Bad Connection that’s coming out and I LOVE IT!!! "

***** Cheeky overdub cut'n'paste - 100% official and fun!, 21 Oct 2009

"The recent selection of Yazoo remixes have varied in genre so much that it's quite refreshing to have a mix/version of this slightly cheesy album track that truly endorses the original! New beats and some clever looping/effects make this revamp great fun, and one that should raise a smile even from purists. One of my favourite remixes from the Reconnected/Diary EPs, and only available on download version.

You may also want to track down their revamp of "I Before E" too, as they have been even more creative on that one."
