"I've Got A Feeling" is the single that was taken from Monaco's selftitlled second studio album. Now for the first time this single will be available on (12") vinyl, together with 3 other tracks taken from the original CD-single. Monaco was a side project (1995-2000) of New Order bassplayer Peter Hook, together with David Potts, the only remaining member of Revenge. Hook’s distinctive pulsating bass lines united New Order’s marriage of post-punk and pop, creating an identity so recognizable that these Monaco tracks can easily be mistaken for tracks by New Order. This extremely limited edition (only 500 individually numbered copies) 4 track EP will be releases as an one-sided 12" with an UV photo print on the B-side. Exclusive for Record Store Day 2025 https://www.recordstoreday.co.uk...27ve%20Got%20A%20Feeling

Interesting.
I have the original CD single. The 4th track is the video for "I've Got a Feeling".

An instrumental also exists... https://www.discogs.com/release/...72-Various-InstrumentalsThis has got to be a precursor to the 2nd LP finally getting a vinyl release (good news). Same label as the recent MFP reissue which makes sense.

From the 4:16 duration it looks like the full length instrumental as opposed to the slightly shorter fade/edit on the Warner/Chappell Instrumentals CDr I linked, which clocks in at 3:59.
The standard album version is 4:36, but from 4:15 to its conclusion has this segue into the beginning of A Life Apart, so the timing makes sense.
Curious to know if the instrumental will be released digitally, they have already reissued the standard CD single tracks on Qobuz. Alas, RSD releases are usually not offered digitally or at least not until sometime after.
Pottsy has a strong presence on Bandcamp reissuing most of his solo stuff, as well as new tunes. It would be great to see Monaco take a similar route and chuck in a compilation of rarities and demos.
2025 appears to be the year we're getting the 2nd album on "wax" tho?

So the blurb says Originally Posted by: Like No Other  "4 track EP will be releases as an one-sided 12" with an UV photo print on the B-side. (RSD's grammar is dodgy, using "releases" instead of "released" and using "an" instead of "a", twice) Then the picture lists the tracks as: two tracks on Side A and two tracks on Side B Originally Posted by: Mr. Disco Mind you, if the picture of the vinyl is accurate, it does appear to be all four tracks on one side. Ok, that's enough pedantry from me for today.

Also a discrepency on the quantity between blurb (500) and label (1000). Will defo try and get a copy though. Look forward to the release on vinyl of the 2nd album.

"Barfly" is quite good. The acoustic guitar riff after the chorus is lovely.

It reminds me of the original "Green Death" flavoured NyQuil. BuzzFeed.com
