TOMORA

[Bosco]

The leaked release date of the album was April 10

Is this based off that pay walled article that was previously mentioned? I know it was mentioned as a springtime release, just curious where it was narrowed to April 10th.

This article at one point said:

With TOMORA, they take that chemistry to a new level. Their first album, Come Closer, will be released on April 10, 2026.

Another article also said:

Together they started working on an album, which will see the light of day sometime in the spring of 2026 and with which they will travel the world.

I've heard that Aurora's team have been directing people to remove references to an album so that's probably why these were deleted.

Congratulations! Any noticeable engravings?

The Chems follow you on Insta don't they? I wonder if ChemicalHQ spotted your name and thought: "We know who this guy is, we'll help him with his rarities"?
I mean it could just be complete luck, it's a hard one to prove either way!

Good spot, thank you. Just to keep people's expectations realistic, I'll be surprised if Tomora do  the full two hours.
Having listened to The New Music Fix show before (presented by Deb Grant and Nathan Shepherd), the guest mix tends to be 25 to 30 minutes of the show. Tomora might not even be there in person - it may 'just' be a mix with a pre-recorded "helllo" from Tom n' Aurora.
I'm happy to be proved wrong on this though. Looking forward to it.

2h or 25min - somebody has to record or download it and then be nice to peeps outside the Kingdom

Host just said a couple of unreleased tracks to be expected.

Did i just hear that Star Guitar mashup from their latest DJ Sets?

This seems very odd to me. Why kill the hype? Unless it straight up isn't happening, wouldn't you want fans to get excited about more new music?

[Csar]

I just tuned in again and started listening to the mix. It seems that the first part is the intro to Ring the Alarm, no? Perhaps the first tracks on the upcoming album?

@Wolkenkrabber was spot on, 26min with a prerecorded intro from them.



"Setlist" they posted on IG, though I don't really hear #01.

That mashup sounds quite nice.

Oh, and an Eve / No Geo mashup. Nice.

Actually no, you didn't. They have been playing Two Shell's Ghosts mixed with SG claps since the 2024 DJ dates. Which is why I said the bit in bold in the quote below. You can also hear the most recent track that they have been playing with SG claps in the quote (well, click the link to the original post, and also see @nekoland 's post on that thread):

^ I've just realised it's the same track that I flagged up in the Fabrik Madrid thread recently.

It definitely sounds better when mixed with the SG Claps.
Come to think of it, Two Shell's Ghosts also sounded better with SG claps.
Everything sounds better with SG Claps!

I don't think we've ID'd the new track yet but I suspect it isn't Chemical.
Apparently Tom calls the claps "Stardrum".

Interesting to hear "Give Me My Thunder" - exclusive NG re-edit action happening here - Essential Chemical listening!
Also nice to see that James Welsh track in there. I posted the track recently in Now Playing along with a comment about a previous Chemical Mix appearance:

Another track released a couple of weeks ago. On Erol Alkan's Phantasy Label. James Welsh previously popped up in the Chems' Odd Bod Distress mix back in December 2020.

James Welsh - Stove Goblin [PH150]

Also nice to hear a James Welsh track being played immediately before the Tomora mix on the radio show too ("Something Red").

Speaking of the radio show, the BBC link is here complete with tracklist:

TOMORA

I actually thought the opening noise was from the Life of Galileo soundtrack. And maybe it is because it isn't from Hania Rani's Sentimental Value.

OH YES! That track was rad.
