Essential Logic 'Rekalibrated' - Fluorescent Yellow

Hiss and Shake Records to release ‘Rekalibrated’ – the ‘Land of Kali’ Remix album from
seminal post-punk icon Lora Logic, including the lead single ‘Alien Boys’ remixed by the
Grammy Award winning Dave Audé.

2022's "Land of Kali" album (Produced by Youth & Lora Logic) was the first under the
Essential Logic moniker for over 40 years and was released alongside a career-spanning
boxset "Logically Yours". Now Essential Logic head honcho and former X-Ray Spex
member Lora Logic has compiled an eclectic and ambitious remixed version of "Land of
Kali" entitled "Rekalibrated" featuring reinterpretations from noted artists across a
multitude of genres and styles including Grammy award winners, living legends and UK
Singles Chart toppers.

Lora's work with Essential Logic and X-Ray Spex while Punk in DNA and spirit has always
pushed at boundaries. Rule-breaking from the start by bringing the sax into Punk while
the jerky, irresistible post-Punk Funk of Essential Logic's "Beat Rhythm News" and Lora's
solo album "Pedigree Charm" sit comfortably alongside more contemporary records with
one ear on the cerebral and the other on the dancefloor. "Rekalibrated" highlights the
many strands that intertwine to make Essential Logic and how they may be unfurled.

The albums lead single - "Alien Boys" is remixed by Dave Audé. Dave is a Grammy

Award winning remixer and producer, famed for having more number ones than any otherproducer on the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart. 
He is responsible for a staggering 132 No.1 remixes on this chart and has worked with artists as varied as U2, Beyonce, Yoko
Ono, Faith No More and Madonna among many others. He won his Grammy for his remix of "Uptown Funk" by Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars.

Youth, legendary bassist of Killing Joke and producer of The Verve, Pink Floyd and The
Orb lends his vastly experienced ears to "Mother Earth" while there are further
interpretations from Rave-pop legend Adamski, Scottish Kandy-poppers bis and New
Order/Duran Duran collaborators Daybreakers who put their own stamp on the Poly
Styrene-penned "Prayer For Peace”.

Lora returned to the spotlight again in 2023 thanks to the vinyl debut of X-Ray Spex's
lost second album "Conscious Consumer" which features her trademark saxophone lines
alongside typically acerbic lyricism from the dear departed Poly Styrene.
The first pressing reached the Official Record Store Chart No.1 position over Christmas
2023 and quickly sold out. Favourable reviews in Uncut, Mojo and Record Collector
alongside a Vive le Rock cover feature helped raise public awareness as well as radio
features on Woman's Hour and Craig Charles' 6 Music show.

In April delighted fans were also quick to snap-up the limited edition Record Store Day
2024 picture disc edition of the album, as well as the 2 x LP ‘Deluxe’ release of her 1982
solo album ‘Pedigree Charm’, including Bonus Tracks and the previously unreleased John
Peel Sessions.

In August 2024 Lora reunited with original Essential Logic guitarist Phil Legg for a
triumphant return to the stage performing to a packed out audience at the Blackpool
Opera House for the Rebellion Punk Festival, before joining fellow punk icons the
Stanglers as their special guest, on a rousing rendition of their classic ‘Hey! (Rise of the
Robots)’, a first since their original pairing in the recording studio in 1978! Lora made a
further surprise appearance in September to celebrate 30 years of disco/punk legends
bis, for a live rendition of the X-Ray Spex classic ‘Germ Free Adolescents’ to a sold-out
audience at St Luke’s, Glasgow.

‘Rekalibrated’ will be released as an ultra limited edition - 200 copies
pressing on florescent yellow vinyl, available exclusively via Cargo Records Direct with
an exclusive hand signed art card from Lora and Digital Platforms.
