Goldie Announces Memoir All Things Remembered

Goldie will release an autobiography, All Things Remembered, on November 2 via Faber Social. The “gonzo” memoir will, according to a press release, “tell the story of the gentrification of a musical genre” and the “house-training of drum & bass.” Goldie says it will cover everything from “writing with David Bowie to reinventing myself as the Dorian Gray of fucking breakbeat.” He’ll also release a new album, The Journey Man, on June 16.

In the press release, Goldie said:

Don’t wish too hard, kid, it might come true…Where am I? I’m on the stage at Ronnie Scott’s, with the band bouncing off the end of my fingertips, the alchemy’s flowing and I’m making the best music of my life and trying to understand where this all went right. All Things Remembered is not just the story of how and why, it’s everything from the children’s homes to the Whispering Wheels roller-disco to rolling with the graffiti kings of New York to writing with David Bowie to reinventing myself as the Dorian Gray of fucking breakbeat. It’s a music book like no other, and I’m very excited to be working with Faber and Ben Thompson to get my dreams down on paper. In no less than five dimensions.
