Description:
* Fairmont's much anticipated debut album, released on Border Community - home to 2 of the most acclaimed electronic albums of recent times - Nathan Fake's 'Drowning In A Sea Of Love' and label boss Holden's 'The Idiots Are Winning'.
* Fairmont has an extensive discography that includes landmark releases on Border Community, Traum, Echochord, Kompakt and Dumb . He has enjoyed a loyal following and critical acclaim amongst the cognoscenti.
* Fairmont's Gazebo single, released on Border Community in December 2005, sold over 20,000 units on 12" alone, becoming an instant classic
* Coloured In Memory is the best techno debut album since either Vitalic's OK Cowboy or Agoria's Blossom. Like these albums it manages to combine forward thinking understated techno with the vitality of the best modern pop. It is perhaps these less-classifiably techno, more deviant moments where the album shines. The demented-surf-rock-electro of 'Bikini Atoll,' the heroin-drone-trance of 'I Need Medicine', the mellow folk-hop of 'Calm Before The Storm' and the straight ahead pop of 'Times Fool'. That said, 'Mobula' continues Fairmont's quest for the perfect melodic techno song, 'All Good things' furthers his catalogue of electronica gems, and standout track
* First single, 'Flight Of The Albatross' feels new and fresh when put up against the uninspired minimal tools dominating the techno scene at the moment.
* With enough dance-floor cuts to please the DJ's and enough listening tracks to pacify everyone else 'Coloured In Memory' is destined to be regarded as one of the most impressive Border Community releases to date.
