Soft Cell to release ‘Danceteria (Remixes)’ limited edition 12″, including a Mark Moore mix, exclusively for Record Store Day 2026 on April 18th.

Soft Cell have announced ‘Danceteria (Remixes)’ will be released exclusively for Record Store Day 2026. The limited white vinyl 12″ features three versions of ‘Danceteria’, the anthemic title track of singer Marc Almond and multi-instrumentalist and producer Dave Ball’s final studio album.

This will be the first material aired from Soft Cell’s forthcoming sixth album, and the first new music to be released since the untimely passing of Dave Ball in October 2025. Almond led the tributes, describing Ball as a “brilliant musical genius” and the world’s media hailing Ball as an electronic music pioneer.

The ‘Danceteria (Remixes’) featuring a remix from Mark Moore, plus an extended mix and a dub version, will be available in selected independent record stores on the 18th April 2026 via Republic of Music.

Over to Marc Almond on his thoughts on ‘Danceteria (Remixes)’:

“It is always exciting being part of Record Store Day. Perhaps it is because I am of that certain age where vinyl holds such special memories. And because it is the title track of our new album ‘Danceteria’, which Dave Ball worked so extensively on and completed just prior to his passing. The Mark Moore and Dan Donovan mix is really special to me and I wanted to thank him personally for doing it – he really understands the references and brings them out brilliantly.”

‘Danceteria (Remixes)’ tracklisting:

A1. Danceteria – Mark Moore & Dan Donovan Remix
B1. Danceteria – Soft Cell Extended Mix
B2. Danceteria – Soft Cell Dub Mix

‘Danceteria’, the sixth and final Soft Cell studio album, is inspired by Marc and Dave’s formative musical years recording in New York and winding up in the legendary 80s Manhattan nightclub after hours. Full information about the album will be announced soon, watch this space…
