Gary Numan + Stuart Semple & Officers = Petals

STUART SEMPLE & OFFICERS have collaborated on a brand new track and limited edition package with electro pioneer and godfather Gary Numan.

Entitled ‘Petals’ the NUMAN x OFFICERS track will be given away on a first come first served basis, exclusively during Numan’s forthcoming Machine Music Tour. The track will be available as a limited edition (100 copies only) physical collaboration package, handmade, and designed by acclaimed British artist STUART SEMPLE.

The edition will comprise a black foil envelope, revealing 3 individual CDs each with a unique version of the track, and a mini art print specifically designed, numbered and signed by Stuart for this unique collaboration.

Along with the NUMAN X OFFICERS track, the additional CDs will include a unique rework from uber producer, re-mixer and superstar DJ JAGZ KOONER (Primal Scream/Oasis/Kasabian) and another special remix by LOSERS – headed up by XFMs legendary Eddy Temple Morris and The Cooper Temple Clause’s Tom Bellamy.

Alongside Numan and Semple, Jagz and Eddy have both been long-term supporters of the band. OFFICERS are excited and honored to play host to this unique five-way collaboration stretching across art and music. More significantly though, is the fact that all proceeds of the digital sales (music + artwork available) will be going to charity, CALM, (Campaign Against Living Miserably) an organization striving to reduce the high suicide rate amongst men under 35 years of age.www.thecalmzone.net/
