THOMAS DOLBY AND VINCE CLARKSanta Monica, California, January 7, 2010 – Space
Cowboy, widely known as Lady Gaga’s collaborator and DJ, will release his
Electro Pioneers EP on January 12th. Available at all digital retailers, this
special set includes remixes of songs from his Cherrytree Records/Interscope
release Digital Rock Star by some of the mavericks of electronic music – Howard
Jones, Thomas Dolby and Vince Clark.The Electro Pioneers EP track list is:
“Devastated” - Howard Jones remix, “My Egyptian Lover” – Thomas Dolby remix and
“Falling Down” - Vince Clark remix.Space Cowboy released Digital Rock Star last
fall after coming off the road with Lady Gaga. Initial single “Falling Down”
became a club favorite and “I Came 2 Party” followed suit. Space Cowboy has also
just been nominated for a GRAMMY award (Album of the Year) for his work on Lady
Gaga’s The Fame album. Having co-produced “Starstruck” featuring Flo Rida on The
Fame, Space Cowboy went on to co-write/co-produce Lady Gaga’s new songs
“Monster” and “So Happy I Could Die” from her newly released The Fame Monster
set. Combined sales of just those two albums are already over 8 million units
worldwide.In December, Space Cowboy joined fellow-GRAMMY-nominated electro
hip-hop duo LMFAO to sing and perform his own set on the duo’s wildly successful
Party Rock tour.Those familiar with Lady Gaga’s platinum plus album The Fame
will know her bold rallying cry from the song “Starstruck,” her duet with Space
Cowboy featuring Flo Rida: “Space Cowboy just play that track!” Before his work
with Lady Gaga, Space Cowboy was producing and spinning in clubs in London
injecting rock influences into a new blend of techno, electro, hip hop and
dance, dubbing his new sound “digital rock.” Space Cowboy released his Digital
Rock album in the UK with an early incarnation of the song “My Egyptian Lover”
which was added to BBC Radio 1. It was a satellite transmission of the Radio 1
feed that caught the attention of Cherrytree Records whose roster also included
a new, up-and-coming New York-based artist named Lady Gaga. The label made an
introduction and the two hit it off creatively. 2009 saw the release of Space’s
US debut Digital Rock Star.
