GUNSHIP Light Up the Future with Exclusive ‘Tech Noir’ Vinyl: A World-First Illuminating Vinyl Art piece

A rechargeable wall lamp and vinyl combination which will evoke the cinematic atmosphere and haunting glow of Tech Noir in the space of your choice.

UK synthwave heavyweights GUNSHIP have announced the release of a limited edition Tech Noir vinyl, delivering an industry first: a playable record housed in a USB-rechargeable, illuminated art piece.

This stunning vinyl is released in support of the hotly anticipated follow-up to their cult classic Tech Noir music video (50 Million views/streams) featuring legendary filmmaker John Carpenter, Charlie Simpson and Timmy Cappello.

More than a collector’s item, this release reflects GUNSHIP’s deep love for physical media and the value they place on tangible interaction as part of the musical experience.The vinyl’s custom-designed case features a monolithic black panel with the iconic TECH NOIR lettering, which lights up and flickers like a neon sign evoking the moody pulse of the 1980s cinematic and arcade worlds that inspired the band’s sonic identity. The case is designed for permanence, built to double as an ambient desk or wall-mounted light, and recharges via USB.

The record includes four tracks:

• Tech Noir – the genre-defining original.
• Tech Noir 2 – its newly released, cinematic sequel.
• Remixes by Carpenter Brut and Sierra Veins – pushing the original tracks into darker and more experimental territory.

“We wanted to create something unique to support the hand-made nature of our claymation Tech Noir sequel video,” the band said. “This thing is tasty, it took us roughly one year to put it together… a crash course in electronic product design and more nitpicking than you can shake a stick at. We’ve hung the very first one on our studio wall, and in the immortal words of ‘The Dude’ it really does tie the room together…”

GUNSHIP’s work continues to blur the lines between music, film, and visual design and this physical release reflects their multimedia ethos. With just a limited run, the Tech Noir vinyl is a rare gem for collectors, die-hard fans and anyone who just wants the sickest and most exclusive wall-light around.
