New tracks from Pete Van Dyk & The Second Hand Band

SHAKE Me/Plan B is the new 7-inch record from Pete Van Dyk & The Second Hand Band.

It is available for free download with bonus track To The Night from petevandyk.bandcamp.com and will be released on a limited edition 33-1/2 RPM lathe cut - a format the band says "echoes the raw gritty energy of the recording".

Pete from the band - which hails from Burlington, Ontario, Canada - said: "The 7-inch was recorded at our bass player JD’s house. We set up in the middle of his living room and let it roll. JD also recorded the event, as he always does. 

"We thrive in spontaneous situations. By recording on the fly we can capture true moments. Our DIY approach to music gives us the opportunity to not miss lightning in a bottle. When a song is at its peak excitement level we can make sure to capture that specific intensity. 

"Our songs are ferocious, violent, introspective, raw, beautiful, and a great many other things. We want to make sure to not let those details escape."
