Yes, there's a new CD on Alien8. It's called Cricklewood, and it's about
as far from his d'n'b stuff as you can imagine. Totally minimal &
spooky analogue weirdness. No 12" is planned on Alien8 (perhaps you're
thinking of the long-planned 12" and full-length d'n'b disc on
Discreet/Indiscreet), but a remix album called "Woodworking" will be out
in the new year sometime.

David told me in an email interview that most of his d'n'b material was
recorded around 2 years ago.
