A Shared Sense Of Purpose is the first track on the album, and the single will be available in 7″ and 12″ formats. Both formats will include an exclusive remix from the Godfather of New Town Synth, Mr Vince Clarke. (If you haven’t already bought Songs Of Silence you really should!)

The 7″ single will contain the tracks A Shared Sense Of Purpose (single edit) and A Shared Sense Of Purpose (Vince Clarke remix). The 7″ will sold on a purple and cream vortex swirl vinyl.

The 12″ single will have A Shared Sense Of Purpose (album version), A Shared Sense Of Purpose (Vince Clarke remix) and two exclusive tracks; Oakwood and A Shared Sense Of Purpose (1973 version). The 12″ will come on baby pink vinyl.

Reviews

A rain-soaked electronic lament for a lost concrete future, like missing the last bus at the end of the world.
Mojo magazine

The single edit kicks things off on a propulsive and cerebral note, while Vince Clarke of Erasure adds high drama and syncopation on his remix.
