"Immediate slice of electro-pop. Christmas Number 1, anybody?" (The
Guardian)





Responsible for such iconic films as Eraserhead, Mulholland Drive, Blue
Velvet and the cult TV series Twin Peaks, film-maker and visual artist David
Lynch is one of the most important directors of the modern era.  Now aged
64, the man whose name has become a byword for the unorthodox and
avant-garde has launched a new chapter in his career releasing an electronic
single, 'Good Day Today' / 'I Know', through leading UK independent Sunday
Best Recordings.

Even by his own standards 'Good Day Today' is a startling composition.
Featuring the legend himself on vocals, this finely crafted piece of
electronic music would take pride of place in the discographies of even the
most revered dance music producers.  Indeed when the track was first aired
by Jason Bentley, on his hugely influential KCRW radio station in Los
Angeles, it was mistakenly credited to Underworld, causing a debate over the
artist's identity to rage on the Underworld website and message boards.

Following this first play, Bentley put the record into the hands of Sunday
Best Recordings director Ben Turner at the International Music Summit in
Ibiza.  Turner in turn played the record to label figurehead Rob da Bank and
realising they had something special on their hands, the pair quickly
snapped up the worldwide rights to the release.

'Good Day Today' will be available as a digital download exclusively through
iTunes, along with its blues and beat-ridden psychedelic double A-side 'I
Know', as of Monday November 29.  Sunday Best have commissioned a stellar
set of remixes of the single for full physical release in January 2011,
complete with artwork and prints from the equally as legendary Vaughan
Oliver - responsible for some of the greatest record sleeves of all time -
think Pixies, Cocteau Twins and 4AD.  Preorders for the beautiful three
panel gatefold vinyl and deluxe CD will be available from
<http://www.davidlynch.com/> www.davidlynch.com from November 29th (details
below).

Not his first foray into the musical realm, Lynch has worked with a host of
musical luminaries over the years, most notably with his regular soundtrack
composer Angelo Badalamenti. It was with Badalamenti that Lynch wrote and
produced the critically acclaimed album Floating Into The Night for singer
Julee Cruise.   A worldwide success, the album featured the Grammy winning
song Falling, which Lynch would later use as the theme music for Twin Peaks.


More recently Lynch collaborated with Sparklehorse and Danger Mouse on the
album 'Dark Night of the Soul'. For this project Lynch designed a 100-page
booklet to accompany the album, which was initially delivered - after
disputes with the record company - in the form in a blank CD-R with fans
instructed to "use as you will".

One of the UK's most respected independent labels, Sunday Best is the
perfect partner for David Lynch to release his first electronic project.
Founded in 1995 by BBC Radio 1 DJ Rob da Bank, Sunday Best Recordings
emerged from the popular South London club night of the same name.  A&R'ed
by da Bank, Sunday Best is currently home to the likes of Kitty Daisy &
Lewis, dan le sac vs Scroobius Pip, David E Sugar and Beardyman.   As well
as its reputation for breaking new acts, the label is renowned for its music
synchronization accomplishments.

Said David Lynch:

"I am very happy to be with Sunday Best with the songs 'Good Day Today' and
'I Know'.  This feels like a good partnership and I'm looking forward to
everyone having a good day today. In all my films, I have always been very
involved with all that one hears. The creation of this record was a natural
extension of my love of sound and music."

Commented Rob da Bank:

"If I hadn't just pinched myself I'd swear I was dreaming that we're
actually putting out a record by David Lynch.  It proves that not only is he
a master director, responsible for many of my favourite films. but he's also
a talented producer with an innate sense of how powerful music is and can
be.  I can't wait to unleash this fantastic record on the world."

Said Ben Turner from Sunday Best Recordings:

"In a way, it makes so much sense that he would make a record sounding like
this due to the cinematic qualities of electronic music.  But it has a
sound, style and a mood that is uniquely Lynch.  There can be no higher
accolade for the genre that somebody like Lynch has chosen to launch a solo
project inspired by electronic music.  What makes it so much more
interesting is that the record genuinely sets incredibly high production
values for the genre.  But who would ever doubt David Lynch in the world of
thought-provoking creativity..."



'Good Day Today' / 'I Know' is available through iTunes worldwide on Monday
November 29.

The deluxe vinyl package, complete with remixes, will be released in January
2011, via Sunday Best Recordings

David Lynch: 



Arguably the most renowned avant-garde film director and visual artist of
his time, David Lynch is known for his unflaggingly original cinematic
projects including Blue Velvet, Mulholland Drive, Lost Highway, The Elephant
Man and not to mention his cult hit TV series Twin Peaks.



Lynch has a history of working with a host of musical luminaries.  While
making Blue Velvet, he needed a certain type of song for an important scene
so Lynch and his film composer Angelo Badalamenti wrote the song 'Mysteries
of Love' to be sung by Julee Cruise.  This led to the album 'Floating Into
The Night', whose track 'Falling' was the theme music for Twin Peaks, and
won a Grammy for Best Pop Instrumental.



In 2008, having composed small sections for his other films and his musical
ambitions growing, he became the eponymous creator of a record label, David
Lynch MC.
