SURRENDER
EPISODE III

For our final Episode, Earn Chen joins in, again. Sure enough, we'll drift off with James here and there...

Any interesting collaborations on your new album
?

JL: Yeah there is. At the moment it's really early days, we're just starting to work on new tracks, but there will be yeah. I'm not really thinking about it, people who are friends, and people we have met along the way - some new people, and some older people... we'll see what comes of it. The one thing I'll say it that we will probably record it in LA, and try and explore things in a different way. The record will hopefully be somewhere in between the last two - something a little bit rawer, and still more song orientated, and hopefully more cohesive... so we shall see.

Will you take the concept of SURRENDER to other cities, too ?

JL: We've talked about doing a travelling exhibition. Do a week in each major city - A sort of tour, with me Djing, and maybe do events, and do a whole experience. I'm definitely inspired by that whole Comme Des Garcons guerrilla store aesthetic, but doing it like a band on tour where you can buy the merchandise, you can buy SURRENDER, and there's a gallery show. The next step would be to do something here.

EC: It is only natural that we should bring SURRENDER back to London. In fact, we're working on a travelling store that goes on tour in London, New York, Berlin, Tokyo, etc. James will DJ, showcase his collection of artworks, his archives of "never been seen before" promos and prototypes, and of course the SURRENDER products. Each city will have different exclusive one-off products. Something on that scale.
We need to plan it carefully so it takes time. We want to do it and do it right.
