Release notes:

Bloc Party's Kele Okereke releases his first solo album called 'The Boxer'. The
album sees the enigmatic frontman push the boundaries of pop and electronica to
boldly step out as a genuinely thrilling artist in his own right.

With Bloc Party currently in hiatus, Kele had originally intended to walk away
from music for a year. He began his sabbatical at the gym, learning to kick-box
and settling into the flat he had just bought, something he refers to as 'the
first grown up thing I had ever done.'
He simply could not leave his creative impulses alone and booked some
exploratory time in the EMI recording studios. 'It was just me and an engineer.
I plugged in synths that I had no idea what they would do. I began programming
drum beats, which I had never done before. It was completely back to the drawing
board. It was exciting and terrifying. In most cases I sat down, pulled a drum
beat out of nowhere and arranged stuff around that. This was as exciting to me
as the first time I picked up a guitar.'

He found being the sole decision maker around his musical direction surprisingly
to his taste. 'The key for the sound of the record was to take things as harsh
and as physical as I could make it. The reason for going there was that these
are the sounds that make me the happiest in the world.' By the time he had
written the freeform, cascading techno meltdown that constituted the second half
of the song Rise, he had an emotional blueprint for what would become this, his
first solo record, The Boxer.

Kele found his natural ally recording in New York with XXXchange, the
Brooklyn-based bedroom production prodigy that crafted the sound of the last
Spank Rock record. Melting the distinctions between dance music and cerebral
pop, with influences ranging from Gary Numan and Adam Ant to Michael Jackson,
they've made a wild and fearless album marked by both its ambition and its sense
of the new.

Enjoy!
