Episode 110: Electrical Language - Quadrascope, Jupiter Red, Naked Lunch, Box of Toys, Thomas Leer Back in Summer of 2019, Cherry Red Records released a 4-CD compilation titled "Electrical Language: Independent British Synth Pop 78-84." Brian wanted to buy it, but having recently signed up for Spotify, he felt obligated to try streaming his music instead of buying everything he wanted. The Great Spotify Experiment soon came to a disastrous end, and unfortunately, the box set slipped Brian's mind. Fast-forward to Summer of 2020, and Brian has finally acquired the collection. After listening to all 80 tracks multiple times, both Brian & Sarah have deemed Cherry Red's work on the set to be "inspirational and excellent." Of course, 80 songs is a few too many to discuss in one episode, so in this special Summer One-Off show, the hosts each pick 2 or 3 of their favorite tracks to research and report on. Brian and Sarah are both really excited to share what they have learned about these new (to them anyway!) artists. Along the way, the conversation turns to topics like Vince Clarke, Claudia Brücken, is Dave Gahan a "beer boy?", Alison Moyet's early band The Vicars, Austrian Slick-Meister Falco, a Glam Rock band called Hello that neither can recall, and a reminder about our current give-away. Don't forget that we want to send YOU free CDs by Cause & Effect, Von Hertzog, and VHxRR. Trust us - they are all seriously great listens!

Because Of You, We Survived the Cold of Winter Snow by Cian Ó Cíobháin 24/12/16 Galway, Ireland Label: goo.gl/6VXilY Twitter: twitter.com/shockws All Podcasts: https://goo.gl/bkdZyY 1. Edward Williams - The Sex Life Of The Fern Strange tune title? Perhaps … but not when you realise its context. It's from the soundtrack to David Attenborough's 1979 BBC series ‘Life On Earth'. 2. John Martyn - Head and Heart Achingly beautiful loves song from John Martyn's 1971 classic LP ‘Bless the Weather'. 3. Shelleyan Orphan - Beamheart Caroline Crawley, the lead singer of Shelleyan Orphan, sadly passed away some months back. I was familiar with her vocal work on This Mortal Coil's LP ‘Blood', but had never taken the time out to explore any of her back catalogue, outside of her contributions to Ivo-Watts Russell's 4AD super-group. 4. Perfume Genius - Mr Petersen Taken from Mike Hadreas' debut LP from 2010, this is a song about a teacher he had in his formative years, who had a major influence on him, but later committed suicide. 5. Shiny Two Shiny - Moment To Moment Thanks to Mary Maguire for introducing me to this band. Based in Liverpool, they released 1 album and 2 EPs in the mid-80s. 6. The Strange Walls - Grey To Red ‘…. Won't Last' by New York-based The Strange Walls on Alrealon Musique is one of my albums of the year. 7. Worldbackwards - (Leaving Me) Now Minimal wave quartet from London who initially only released their music on cassettes (there are four of them, all C60s). 8. Peter Gordon & David Van Tieghem - Winter (feat Kathy Acker) Peter Gordon is the bandleader of Love Of Live Orchestra, a multi-genre downtown New York collective that has counted Arthur Russell, David Byrne, Arto Lindsay, Phillip Glass and Laurie Anderson amongst its members. He sent me a thank you email VIA his publicist for playing this one so often on my radio show this year. 9. Thomas Leer - Private Plane Amazing debut single from 1978 from Thomas Leer. 10. Lives Of Angels - Imperial Motors Lost classic from husband/wife duo Gerald and Catherine O' Connell, taken from their 1983 album ‘Elevator To Eden'. Shades of Can, Suicide, Depeche Mode, New Order. 11. Rollers/Sparkers - Kodiak They're from Dublin, they are responsible for my album of the year - ‘Interior Ministry' - and by album, I mean a coherent collection of amazing songs that make complete sense in the way that they're sequenced on the LP. 12. Let's Eat Grandma - Eat Shiitake Mushrooms I believe that this precocious teenage girl duo from Norwich are still in school (only aged 16-17 when they wrote this) and yet…. how on earth did they come up with possibly the best pop-song of 2016? 13. Scraps - Dreams Brisbane's self-styled ‘dehydrated disco queen' released a corker of an album - called ‘TTNIK' - on the always essential Not Not Fun label this year. 14. Blood Orange - Desirée This was my highlight from ‘Freetown Sound', an album which features more great female vocalists, many who previously were unknown to me. 15. The Paradise - In Love With You Made by Alan Braxe (who had a hand in Stardust's ‘Music Sounds Better With You' with Thomas Bangalater and ‘Intro/Running' with Fred Falke) with Romuald Louverjon back in 2003, I have Mike Smalle to thank for introducing me to this 6am afterparty classic. 16. Ruby & The Romantics - Baby Come Home Akron, Ohio R&B 60s group who became big in Belgium when this one became a staple on the Popcorn scene. 17. Liz Damon's Orient Express - 1900 Yesterday Debut single from Liz Damon's Hawaiian band came out in 1971 but I have my truelove to thank for introducing me to it recently. 18. Cocteau Twins - Half-Gifts 20 years ago the Cocteau Twins released their final album ‘Milk & Kisses' and when it came out I recall many of us being completely besotted with this song. Liz Fraser's biographer speculated that songs from this period may be about Jeff Buckley, but the lady herself has neither confirmed or denied this.

BANDCAMP: https://bit.ly/2EcjjQL Day of the Locust by Jon Averill 3/3/16 London United Kingdom 1. Frank Sinatra - Empty (Extract) This podcast began after a conversation about how overrated I thought Frank Sinatra was. As if to prove myself wrong I shone a spotlight into the darker area of his back catalogue. 2. Fridge - Cut Up Piano & Xylophones Polyphonic probing from Kieran Hebden, Adem Ilhan, & Sam Jeffers. Recording as Fridge back in 2001. 3. Perdita - Rubber City This sounds like it's from a David Lynch film, because it is; Wild at Heart from 1990. 4. HomeSick, Silkersoft & Keight - Faraway Suede Fresh beats recorded at this year's Red Bull Music Academy in Paris. 5. Sinoia Caves - Elena's Sound-World From the soundtrack of Beyond the Black Rainbow, a queasy & uneven retro styled sci-fi film from 2010. 6. Iggy Pop - The Endless Sea Relatively restrained & nuanced balladeering. Endless Sea is from 1979. Which is the last time Iggy Pop wore a shirt. 7. Donald Byrd - Cristo Redentor (Loop) I looped the intro of this track (which also appears on podcast 18) to serve as underpinning for the next. 8. William S. Burroughs - From Here To Eternity A caustic, sardonic piece from Burrough's collection of short stories; ‘Exterminator' from 1973. 9. Thomas Leer & Robert Rental - Day Breaks, Night Heals Proper fuzzy, nasty electronic resonance from 1979. Man music. 10. Vangelis - Le Singe Bleu Been listening to Van the man's pre Blade Runner output a lot recently. This is from 1973's L'Apocalypse des Animaux. 11. Lee Hazlewood - The Nights Hazlewood is the grizzled troubadour who documented the fast disappearing American frontier. We play a lot of Lee on this podcast so much so I actually had to search back through the previous 62 episodes to make sure this track hasn't already been used. 12. P-Model - Kameari Pop Amazing freaky outlandish electropop from Japan circa 1979. 13. Dave Clarke - Splendour Crunchy tractor hip-hop from techno stalwart Dave Clarke showcasing the power of the loop. 14. Gareth Anton Averill - Little Palace Horns Another track recorded at this year's Red Bull Music Academy. Familiar name too. 15. Alan Vega - Love Cry This continues the outsider art template Vega created in Suicide alongside Martin Rev. 16. Moritz Reich - La Fabrique des hommes tristes: Ouverture French melancholy from frenchman Moritz Reich. 17. Frank Sinatra - Empty Is Frank returns to complete one of the more interesting songs in his cannon. I'm still not fully sold though. 18. Laraaji - Zither Dance Apparently discovered by Brian Eno. New age clanging & banging from Laraaji closes out this episode with a hypnotic zither melody. 19. Mare Street Band Recording A little post-script recording I made in Hackney that threatens to break into the Lambada at any point.
