[i]A Blaze Colour[/i] was the project of Ludo Camberlin [vocals & synths] and Bam (aka Karel Saelemaekers) [synths & visuals]. The group formed in Belgium in 1981, disbanded in 1983, and had a style which was minimal, stripped-down and occasionally experimental. Their only releases were a self-released cassette in 1981, plus a 7" vinyl single and a 12" vinyl EP in 1982. The cover artwork for the cassette and 7" single were designed by Bam. All three of these releases were titled [i]Against The Dark Trees Beyond[/i], which was originally part of the band's name. The band name was inspired by a phrase Camberlin read in a book by the Irish-American author J P Donleavy. It was shortened to [i]A Blaze Colour[/i] because fans were apparently having a difficult time remembering the full name [i]A Blaze Colour Against The Dark Trees Beyond[/i]. Three further tracks were released on different Various Artists compilations - the original version of "Fisk" on [i]No Big Business[/i] in 1981, "Cold As Ever" on [i]Hours[/i] in 1982, and "The Ultimate Fight" on [i]No Big Business 2[/i] in 1983. A remix of "Cold As Ever" was later included on the collection [i]The Dark Side Mixes - Volume 14[/i] in 2011. There also exists a bootleg tape of a live performance recorded in the Netherlands on the 19th of February 1983, featuring six songs - two of which do not appear on any of their other releases. None of the official releases are known to have charted in any country. Ludo Camberlin has now completely retired from the music business, and no longer has any interest in it. This includes re-releasing the original [i]A Blaze Colour[/i] recordings as a collection - he owns the masters and has been asked, but to date has said "no".
