Fruits de Mer Records will release “What Colour is Pink?” on April 19.
The EP will include three Floyd songs from “A Saucerful of Secrets” — “Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun,” “Let There Be More Light”, and “A Saucerful of Secrets” — re-recorded by German prog/psych band Vibravoid.
Available as a limited edition of 500, the EP will be sold as a pink vinyl 7-inch record with pink label and pink sleeve. Already 200 of the EPs have been pre-ordered.
This will be the 10th release from the Surrey-based label, which boasts it “loses money on every release and we love it.” The company, in business for less than two years, has previously released re-recordings of songs originally by Small Faces, Strawberry Alarm Clock, Nick Drake, Caravan, Kraftwerk, Van der Graaf Generator, Nico and others.
Fruit de Mer’s eighth EP included a cover of Floyd’s “Julia Dream” by Swedish duo Us and Them.
You’ll be able to buy the EP at the label’s Web site. For more information, email them.
