broadcast are amazing-the noise made by people is a
fantastic album, they're fantastic live and are one of the
rare few live bands around that are really cutting it
sonically. jesus theres a track of theirs off 'the come on
lets go' ep called chord perfect, which is so lush it brings
a tear to your eye. spoke to the guitarist at a stereolab
gig in brum the other month and he says the band hope to get
a new album out by september.

the only reason the last album didnt get more acclaim is
because warp are a bunch of old dinosaurs who not only poach
already signed acts-afx/plaid/broadcast/squarepusher etc but
market wise couldnt promote a cure for cancer. shame,
because they were once cutting edge, but other labels have
taken over them in a shorter space of time.

thats my warp rant over with

yep if you see any broadcast in any sale anywhere-pick it
up. your ears will not be disappointed.

Absolutely haunting and charming all rolled into one...

Ken...........Why so bitter? Black dog is over. live in the
present, for your own sake.

everything they've done is top notch. first album was
amazing but they blew me away with the last one they put
out. singles are worth picking up also. I guess I would
call them space pop. female vocals that are very lush and
there is a lot of stuff going on in the background giving
the music a great deal of depth. I suppose they would fall
somewhere close to stereolab but broadcast is much more
exciting. they are one of my favorite bands right up there
next to American analog set.

eh? live in the present? not sure what you mean by that!
naH, im not bitter,-i just think its a shame that a once
great label has let itself go and put out some dodgy
material from some i just know that warp treat there artists
like shit-i know that for a fact cuz ive a mate who used to
be a web editor for them-they refused to give scott heron
(prefuse 73) half off the money they promised him, so he
couldn't even get the equipment to finish the album-then
they fucked about with the track listing.eeuurrggh.
aphex hates warp, i know that tom jenkinson cant wait to
leave, autechre (well mainly sean booth) dictate what warp
should/should not release-if they dont get their own way
they threaten to leave etc etc, they dont market their
records to reach to the majority-they simply rely too
heavily on the idm community in my opinion-you'd be suprised
at how many units warp actually sell-it's not much. now that
robs died it'll be interesting to see where they go. no
respect to warp-theres probably nobody who contributes to
this site that the label hasnt touched-i just think their
gradually losing it.

korban-get this album its amazing. its got amazing
production-sounds similar to brian wilson pet sounds
era-sounds a bit like usa's 1969 album, and a bit like eno
-sort of. hard to sum up. it is fantastic though-they are
far superior to stereolab and the lyrics are beautiful-like
having warm treacle poured down your back...erm...yeah. you
can get it quite cheap at the moment as well-think i saw it
in hmv for 5.99

Cheers for the feedback/info wrt the Broadcast stuff.

Will look into it :)

no worrie mate, they also have a 'mini' album on warp called
work and non work-a compilation (along with a new track) of
old hard-to-find ep work they put out on sterelabs duophonic
label.if you get the 'noise made by people' cd and dig that,
id look into getting this compilation as well which features
the fantastic 'message from home'-stunning stuff mate, you
wont be disappointed-:)
