about

To celebrate a month of being included in the BBC 6 Music Playlist, Number have announced a special live re-work of their track ‘Wedge’ by the highly revered A Certain Ratio. Approaching Number directly for a collaboration, ACR’s Martin Moscrop was eager to work on the band’s music;

“When we first heard Binary we thought these guys must have gone to the same school as ACR because Number’s music is genreless with a real world feel to it. We thought ACR need to collaborate here and see if Ratio + Number = Binary.”

Citing A Certain Ratio as one of their key inspirations going into the album, Rich and Ali are overjoyed to be collaborating with a group who is a key influence on Number’s unique sound:

“Rich and Ali have been influenced by the music of A Certain Ratio since the 80s and their sound, rhythms, melodies and alternative approach to funk played a big part in the creation of Binary; not least the value of trumpet. It was an honour to be approached by ACR to rework each other's music and we are really excited about what promises to be a highly creative exchange of ideas.”
