24 Hour Service Station is thrilled to announce a worldwide distribution deal with Peter Hook’s new record label, Haçienda Records UK. Hook, the legendary bassist & founding member of New Order & Joy Division, is operating the label out of Strawberry Studios in Manchester, England. Modeled on the same principals & integrity as Hook’s former label, the Tony Wilson headed Factory Records, Haçienda Records UK allows for future Hook projects as well as music from new artists to be developed, released & distributed easily.

The First Fruit of this partnership is the long awaited & often rumored FreeBass - Two Worlds Collide EP. Featuring three of Manchester's bass guitar legends; Peter Hook (Joy Division / New Order), Andy Rourke (The Smiths) & Gary "Mani" Mounfield (The Stone Roses), FreeBass had a long gestation process. The right lead singer was hard to pick, so they asked their famous friends to contribute with Tim Burgess (Charlatans UK), Pete Wylie (The Mighty Wah!) & Howard Marks (Mr Nice) responding to the call.
