A brand new HPs remix album ‘Rewind Re-versioned’ out Dec 5




Hallelujah Picassos announce a brand new remix album ‘Rewind Re-versioned’. It’s a version excursion, riddim-wise styles.

We are releasing a special remix album with 15 remixes of the same song, all in wildly different flavours. ​Why? That sounds insane.

Last year was the 30th anniversary of Hallelujah Picassos’ single ‘Rewind’ being released. The song quickly became hugely popular with fans and student radio, and was a highlight of our live sets, sung by our drummer Bobbylon from behind the kit.

We’re doing it to remind everyone what a magnificent singer Bob was. He passed away in 2018 and we want to do this project to honour him and his legacy.

We’re going to include a handful of remixes from a wide range of folks who have been active since the time we released it, along with the original version.

Remixers who are involved include Christoph El Truento, Amamelia, Stinky Jim (Unitone Hifi), Sola Rosa, Daniel Maneto, Surly, Timmy Schumacher, Evan Short (Kiljoy, ex Concord Dawn), Mike Hodgson (Misled Convoy, Pitch Black) Joost Langeveld (Subware), and Rachel D.

‘Rewind Re-versioned’ is coming out December 5, 2025 on a limited run of CDs and cassettes, and digital. All formats come with a booklet with photos and tales of Bobbylon from some of the remixers and friends of the band.

​Preorder it on cassette or CD from Flying Out.

We will be having a launch event at Flying Out on Dec 5, from 4pm to 6pm, with DJs and pals to celebrate the release.

All Systems Go - new single coming.




Here is the latest release by Hallelujah Picassos, called All Systems Go. The title has two meanings but is not a double entendre, and sees the band swimming in a cacophony of polyphonic bliss, with a vocal battle chant "All Systems Go".

Slamming and drifting, through a banging riddim, crunchy keyboards that is the latest HP offering to the Euterpe, the muse of music, and for the public on Bandcamp.

We’ve made a music video for the song, shot and edited by band member Drew McCormack in glorious black and white, with animations by Roland Rorschach.

Hallelujah Picassos are part of the awesome lineup of bands playing ‘ToneFest’, returning for the third year at Whammy on Nov 1st, 2025. Starts early with an all ages show from 4pm, followed by 8pm show (R18).
