Hello,

It's been a while since the last Ex-Rental release, and that's because it's taken a while to prepare this new `virtual box set', featuring 50 tracks!

"Choreography – The Very Rest Of Ex-Rental"

It's basically every half-decent recording or remix that wasn't on last year's "Unpopular Pop" album, and many of the tracks are previously unreleased, even though you might recognise a few of them from live shows.

The set is divided into four loosely-themed volumes:

1)      "Boy Girl Action"

(mostly pop, either electronic/dance-oriented or slightly more noisy)

2)      "Here We Are, The Dead Men"

(most leftfield material, either `alternative' or moody pieces)

3)      "Landfill Nation"

(other bits and pieces, some strange, some unfinished, many just plain silly)

4)      "Revisionism"

(other mixes, remixes, and alternate versions)

And it's free to download from http://ex-rental.com/boxset.htm - available as four separate zipped volumes, in case you don't want to download all 50 tracks at once.  You can also listen to excerpts of selected songs from each volume, and everything should be online for about six months, in case you need time to digest it all. A lower-fi 12-track sampler compilation is also available at http://www.last.fm/music/Ex-Rental/Choreography+sampler ...

By the way, as you might have noticed in the subject line, this is the final Ex-Rental release!

Yes, I've decided to call it a day.  I recently became a father, so now my son needs me to make up songs to sing to him instead... :)

So thanks very much to everyone who's been listening over the years – this new 'box set' is dedicated to you all!

Take care, and thanks again for listening.

Best wishes,

Sean x
