Blanc Check Records 

Blancmange is a British synth-pop duo formed in London in 1979. Consisting of Neil Arthur and Stephen Luscombe, they achieved success in the early to mid-1980s with hits like "Blind Vision," "Don't Tell Me," and "Living On The Ceiling." Despite their initial popularity decline and the disappointing performance of their third album, "Believe You Me," Blancmange reformed in 2006. They released a new album titled "Blanc Burn" in 2011 but Luscombe left due to health issues. Since then, Neil Arthur has continued to perform under the Blancmange name.

Blancmange's new album was written and recorded by Neil Arthur and co-produced by Benge (Wrangler / John Foxx and The Maths and Gazelle Twin co-producer). It’s been a fantastically creative period for both of them, releasing their debut album as a new electronic duo – Fader’s First Light - in June 2017 and then the final sessions for Unfurnished Rooms followed immediately in the summer. For the new Blancmange record, all the songs were written by Arthur while Benge added percussion and layers of analogue synth, with the pair then mixing the record together in the latter’s Memetune studios in Cornwall. Don't Get Me Wrong features John Grant on piano and backing vocals.
