Erasure have teased there’s a trove of unreleased recordings leftover from The Neon sessions.

In an interview with Forbes, the pair opened up on the making of their latest record, which is in the Top 5 of the UK midweeks, and admitted they had “so many songs to pick from this time”.

While the album is penned entirely by Andy Bell and Vince Clarke, the musician explained the pair usually “write the ten songs, and then that’s it – but for this, somehow, we wrote a lot more.”

“We knew that there were some good ideas and then it was up to the record company really to try and say, what was going to be on the album and which ones wouldn’t but will be released at some point in the future,” he shared.

“That’s always the way; nothing really gets discarded.”

Reflecting on how the pair work on their music together, Vince insisted that, despite him living in the US and Andy staying in Britain, the pair refuse to communicate via technology for work purposes.

“We’re in different locations, but we don’t use the internet as a tool to do what we do. We don’t work that way,” he said. “When it comes down to the real songwriting, we have to be together. We’re not a back and forth kind of band.”

Vocals for The Neon were recorded in Atlanta, while mixing took place in London, and Vince confessed: “For me, the joy of songwriting is being in a room with Andy and coming up with an idea from nothing. That hasn’t changed.”
