Signed earlier this year to Global Underground�s GUMusic artist label, the band have been playing by the rules of electronic dance but trashing them as they go along: you can only get away with breaking the rules when you know them inside out, and they wrote the book. Ashley Casselle has been a respected international DJ since 1999 and is The Remote�s musical backbone: providing a lush electronic wash of breaks against a synthetic wall of sound spiked with acoustic guitars recorded on a Dictaphone - all mixed to make a whole that is at times bleak and wintry and at times like immersing yourself in an Eighties dream world.
The fresh face of Ben Lost belies a heart forged on the road � he bunked off school in Peterborough aged thirteen to go on tour supporting The UK Subs in his junior punk band Candi-Snatch, something he describes as �quite an experience and probably illegal�. Soon he moved on to Charlie, who were signed to London records and got airplay from the venerable John Peel. �My parents were really cool about the whole thing, although by �96 when we were getting a lot of press with Charlie, my Dad used to buy the NME every week and he got a bit upset when he read that I�d got off my head, thrown up on Jarvis Cockers hotel room floor, punched Joe Strummer and called him an old c*nt. I thought �my Dad cannot read any more of this�. So I had to get my Dad�s NME before he did every week, rip the stories out and pretend it was a coupon for a free CD.� To keep up with Iggy he also got his c*ck out on stage when his Dad was in the audience. He must have been so proud.
