Working Men’s Club have shared the B-side to their recently-released single ‘X’ – the new, complementary track ‘Y?’ – along with four ‘X’ remixes by Paranoid London and Minsky Rock.
Self-produced by Syd Minsky, the B-side ‘Y?’ aims to continue on from where ‘X’ left off, deepening the A-side’s sound.
The remixes come from by Paranoid London (Quinn Whalley and Gerardo Delgardo) and Minsky Rock, an electronic side project of Syd from the band. Both remixes straddle acid and electro, and are releasesd as both vocal and instrumental versions.
All tracks from the new release will be available on 7” and 12″ vinyl on Heavenly Recordings.
After premiering their live version of ‘Y?’ at this year’s virtual 6 Music festival, the band have also announced a headline U.K. tour in November, which will conclude with their biggest show to date at Electric Brixton in London.

There are numerous reasons for the recent revival of interest in cult British fusionists Woo – not least for their uniquely broad palette of influences and the hard to pigeonhole nature of their material – but the duo’s willingness to open their archives to interested labels has undoubtedly played a part. Until Drag City Records reissued their 1989 sophomore set It’s Cosy Inside back in 2012 (closely followed a year later by an Emotional Response repress of their infamously hard-to-find 1982 debut, Whichever Way You Are Going, You Are Going Wrong), the Wimbledon-raised Ives brothers were only of interest to a handful of in-the-know collectors.
