Penguin Café reissues 2011 album ‘A Matter of Life’ on vinyl in a remastered version
Out via the Erased Tapes label later in May is the 10th anniversary reissue of the Penguin Café debut album, titled “A Matter of Life”. Reissued as “A Matter of Life… 2021” it comes completely remastered and pressed on vinyl for the very first time.
The record also features a brand new 2021 recording of lead single “Harry Piers”, a song commemorating Arthur Jeffes late father and Penguin Cafe Orchestra founder Simon Jeffes. The album includes Neil Codling of Suede and, on percussion, Cass Browne of Gorillaz.
The neo-classical act Penguin Cafe was originally conceived by Arthur Jeffes, son of Simon Jeffes and Emily Young, as a continuation of his father’s project, the Penguin Cafe Orchestra.
Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
