“33rd Best Summer Song of All Time” – Rolling Stone
""McCoy Tyner playing the Kraftwerk songbook, outlined in aural neon." The Village Voice
"If 'Steal My Sunshine' was the last song I ever heard on this earth, I'd die happy” – Allmusic
“All I want to do is release this song on some silly indie record label I’ll run in the future” – 16 year old Jack from Alcopop!
It’s been fifteen years since Len’s Steal My Sunshine was unleashed upon the
ears of a grateful sun-starved world, quickly becoming not only a massive hit -
but one of ‘those’ songs that marks a pivotal moment for a certain
generation.
So it’s with all the pride and pleasure in the world that, following a couple
of mutually loving tweets, a frenetic discussion over DMs and a whole load of
booze soaked chats – Alcopop! Records are announcing the release of Len’s Steal
My Sunshine (Remastered for 2014) as Alcopop! Records (Best Small Label – AIM
Awards) 100th release: out on tape, tee shirt, retro picture ‘len’sed
sunglasses and digital… Just 15 years after it graced the top 10 in the UK, US,
Australia, Ireland – and hit number 1 in Canada.
Available immediately on iTunes (impact date: June 16th to coincide with World
Cup optimism) and to pre-order in as many retro formats as the boys could think
of on www.ilovealcopop.co.uk, this remaster (which sounds very much like
the original... Only a little bit better) is the result, not of some bland
licensing agreement between people in suits, but of the shared passion of doing
something awesome.
Marc Costanzo, AKA Len, says:
“I'm a huge fan of Alcopop! so it's a real honor that the boys at the label are
releasing Sunshine as their 100th release. It's gotten a lot of action in
movies and tv shows lately and this will be great to reintroduce it to a new
fun sun lovin’ generation. Makes these Canadians pretty friggen happy."
Jack of Alcopop! says:
“HOLY SH*T. THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER!!! WE’RE EVEN IN THE ARTWORK"
