Good evening. What an action-packed show tonight! A bit late off the mark, due to delayed postage from the UK (well I like to make my excuses anyway), we have some tracks from the brilliant new Beirut album, starting with one co-written (and sung) by Owen Pallett of Final Fantasy.
Then we have the wonderful new Robert Wyatt album, heaps of stuff from the new Planet µ compilation 200 (their 200th release!), Jonquil‘s lovely second album, Venetian Snares‘ second venture into 20th-century classical breakcore, electronic music from Birmingham on Static Caravan‘s Binary Oppositions compilation, remastered Fennesz, and on it goes… Also a fantastic collaboration between American spoken word artist Adam Gnade & post-rock/electronic group Youthmovies (aka Youthmovie Soundtrack Strategies), and in addition to some great dubstep from Planet µ, there’s a little bit from Pinch‘s new album Underwater Dancehall.
NB: I won’t be here next week — you’ll be in the safe hands of Kit Brash and I’ll be back the following Sunday.
