Where Did the Night Fall is the fifth regular studio album from British electronic music act UNKLE, released on May 10, 2010.
Background
As a documentation of the work on the album, on April 13, 2009, James Lavelle, UNKLE's mastermind, started an official "UNKLE Blog". According to the first post, Lavelle started to work in studio in January 2009 with Pablo Clements, James Griffith, Joel Cadbury, Gavin Clark, Matt Pierce and Mike Lowry.
Promotion
On August 16, 2009 a single, "Heavy Drug (Surrender Sounds Mix)", was made available digitally via Beatport and iTunes. On December 27, 2009 the download was followed by a remix EP with remixes by King Unique, Steve Mac and Future Beat Alliance.
On February 11, 2010 a song, "Natural Selection", appeared as a streaming on Spin magazine's website, and was later made available to download as a 320 kbps MP3 file, via UNKLE's official website. Beginning on March 31, a Warm Digits remix of "Natural Selection" was made available for download to customers who had pre-ordered "Where Did the Night Fall" on UNKLE's online store.
Available on the UNKLE website was a 2 disc limited edition of the album, which included a second disc containing instrumental versions of all the songs.
Where Did The Night Fall - Another Night Out
On February 9th, UNKLE revealed that "Where Did The Night Fall" would be re-released as "Where Did the Night Fall - Another Night Out". The first disc will contain the same songs that are on the original album but the second disc contains material from two of UNKLE's previous EP's, plus a number of exclusive and rare tracks. It's currently set for a release on April 11th.
