Patrick Wolf Preps New Album And Live DVD

Patrick Wolf has revealed that he is currently beavering away on two new projects, one of which is a new album.

Wolf says the new record is being based on his life since the release of ‘The Magic Position’ in early 2007 which catapulted him in to the mainstream limelight.

He explained: “I have also been secretly working away, crafting away on the new album too in the sleepy black and amber of these long cold winter nights.

“Loading up my old laptops, generating beats and writing, typing non-stop at the piano keys and computer keys, trying to communicate some of the journeys, misadventures and experiences from the last couple of years since The Magic Position was completed.”

Posting on his myspace blog Wolf says that he has also spent the last few weeks preparing a live DVD for release later this year.

He wrote: “So today on this cold January afternoon I spend the last of a good few weeks of hard listening mixing and producing all the audio from the shepherds bush empire finale from last month for a television special to be premiered on virgin television special very soon and then an extended version to be turned into my first DVD later in the year.

“The film has been lovingly shot and directed by the photographer Brantley Gutierrez who I worked with a lot last year on my USA tour.”
