Mark Gardener/Robin Guthrie LP coming in September + Ride cycling gear

Mark Gardener (Ride) and Robin Guthrie (Cocteau Twins) previously collaborated on the single "The Places We Go" back in 2012, and last year the two headed back in the studio to record a full length album, which was revealed in a May 2013 interview with Gardener in Stereoboard :

"We’ve just finished a new 10-track album together...it's one of the best albums I have ever been involved in – I’m looking forward to releasing and playing more shows with Robin and the band."

Last year, Guthrie also briefly mentioned working on the record in a posting on his official site, revealing that the recording seemed to be going "rather well."

Today OX4Sound, Gardener's recording/production company, announced that the collaborative album is complete and will be released worldwide in September.  No other details (exact release date, album title, etc) have been announced, but it's a good idea to follow OX4Sound on Facebook or Twitter for updates and news about Gardener's other exciting musical projects.

Meanwhile, for Ride fans who like to ride...

London cycling gear company Milltag collaborated with Ride (bassist Steve Queralt is big into cycling) to create a special edition biking jersey and bib shorts. [A picture of the front of the jersey is at the top of this post and the back of the jersey is posted above. Note the back of the jersey reads "leave them all behind"!] Pre-order the jersey and shorts through March 31st here.
