Stripped is Daniel Ash's fifth album and his first studio album since his 2002 release, Daniel Ash . [1] The album features reworkings of songs from his previous work with bands Bauhaus, Tones on Tail and Love and Rockets, as well as one original track. [1] [2]
Daniel Ash had originally intended to release an album of some of his older work stripped down acoustically, but later decided that the idea was boring. [3] [4] Ash taught himself how to use Logic Pro and stripped down the songs electronically, then rebuilt them with elements of EDM, including dubstep, as well as elements of reggae. [1] [2] [3] [4] In 2014 he funded the album on PledgeMusic and asked fans to select the songs to be included on the album, which was released later that year by GO! Studio. [2] [4] The album was also reissued in 2016 by MVD Entertainment Group and Main Man Records. [5]
Bauhaus are an English rock band, formed in Northampton, England, in 1978. The group consisted of Daniel Ash, Peter Murphy, Kevin Haskins (drums) and David J (bass). The band was originally named Bauhaus 1919 in reference to the first operating year of the German art school Bauhaus, although they shortened the name within a year of formation. One of the pioneers of gothic rock, Bauhaus were known for their dark image and gloomy sound, although they mixed many genres, including dub, glam rock, psychedelia and funk.
Tones on Tail was a British post-punk band formed in 1982, originally as a musical side project of Daniel Ash of the gothic rock group Bauhaus. Their music was described by one critic as "doom-and-dance-pop."
