Hi DJKZ,
I have to agree with Bellatrixical....they have worked really hard on this and do deserve some radio airplay here in the UK. To get a into the UK Top 10 Indie chart with your first release is phenomenal. The collaboration with Judy Dyble was an inspired gamble by their manager Jon - Brilliant Management and the team at Transcend Records and from the interest shown, I think it's paying off.
I actually think the best track on the single is The Conspirators own 'Robots', which is a bonus track - if you go to the HMV site and download the 'One Sure Thing' 4 track single, it is not included on the CD but you can hear and download all 4 tracks separately.
It's really worth listening to...it's more gnarly and upbeat and I personally think it's a better production too. Think Clash meets Blondie!
'Turning Green' was featured on the Dead Famous 11 album about a year ago and has been in the US KIAC Independent chart all year, and it reached No.1!
Hopefully it will be released as a single here and if it gets half the download airplay it has in the USA, it should do well.
All they need now is to be picked up by a major label and who knows where they may end up?
As Bellatrixical says you can hear and download all these tracks on
www.myspace.com/theconspiratorsuk
or
www.theconspirators.co.uk

This could be a real surprise hit - Judy Dyble (original Fairport Convention vox) has remade One Sure Thing from the first Fairport album, with northern indie band the Conspirators. A wonderful song!
I got sent a demo, I can only find snippets on the web atm, here they are

A lot of hard work...that's how they did it. They put on a lot of gigs up here (some of which I attended) and they're great, especially live. They deserve so much more than what they've achieved so far and I hope they do well - you all seem to judge them on this one single. Hypo Typo - did you listen to Robots and Turning Green on their Myspace? Incredible tunes, much better than what they put out for the single. |

Hey Phoenix, I do recall saying I liked her other tracks other than "Take Me To Your Leader". Great result though I must say. But I didn't like the photo.
Anyway, well done to them on a fabulous result.
How did they manage to do it ? |

The Conspirators and Judy Dyble 4 track maxi single has reached No.7 in the UK Indie chart in it's first week of release and all 4 tracks are in 27,28,31,33 in the HMV Top 100 downloads chart.
Not bad for a rework of an old song, and a collaboration between an 'old Conservative type poodle hugging woman' and a fresh new Indie band eh?
DJKZ and Hypo Typo....oh ye of little faith!  |
