DJ Erol Alkan is producing a new Ride album and has revealed as much on Instagram.
In putting a studio picture up on his account, Alkan has confirmed the reunited band are working on their first album in over two decades following their live return last year.
The group last released a studio LP in 1996, by which time they’d already parted ways due to textbook musical differences. Guitarist Andy Bell would go on to have the most high profile time away from Ride when he replaced Paul ‘Guigsy’ McGuigan as the bass player in Oasis in 2000, where he remained until their own disintegration in 2009.
He went on to immediately form Beady Eye with Liam Gallagher and his remaining Oasis bandmates sans Noel Gallagher before he went full circle not long after this outfit resulted in the third major split of his career in 2014.
