apaull newsletter – True Though including Andrey Sirotkin remix – 2 October

I’ve really been enjoying developing and playing out live sets and over the summer have been able to perform on the same bills as Dave Clarke and Christian Smith. In early September I got to play at Justin James’ wonderful Camp Unknown festival, close to Windsor.

Other summer highlights include having my track “Push the Button” included on UK Dubiks top 40 electronic tracks of the year (so far) https://dubiks.com/2026/07/14/40-best-electronic-tracks-of-2026-so-far/ ; the track “Gunfactor” included on Dave Clarke’s Whitenoise radio show https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZU37BLhjre0 and finally a three-hour feature of all things apaull on Ireland’s national radio RTE 2 https://youtu.be/cU2OEZbjJDo

“True Though”, my new single from the Gunfactor album (furnace room records), is released on 2 October. The original mix includes an Andrey Sirotkin remix. To pre-save the “True Though” single and remix package: https://FurnaceRoomRecords.lnk.to/TrueThough

My third album Gunfactor came out on 24 April 2026, on my furnace room records label. The ten-track album explores the pathways to fame and infamy — how exceptional talent, good fortune and, sometimes, darker events can push someone into the public eye.

“True Though” rolls on a dub-leaning bass line, giving space for industrial stabs of noise and off-kilter melody. If you are famous enough, nothing you do (or have done) will truly impact you.
