New Broadcast (RIP Trish Keenan Jan 2011)

this was brought up by watching those Origins of Stereolab clips on youtube and realizing they started a series for Broadcast as well.

well i know what i'm off to go watch right now

it's not as satisfying because the stereolab one is like...Neu!, Canned Heat! Silver Apples! while the Broadcast one is like Basil Kirchin!

wario land?

a friend of mine drummed for broadcast for a little while and they gave him a tape of, i suppose, the big influences, i remember ennio morricone: his name is nobody was on it and i seem to recall the valerie theme and, yep, bits of basil kirchin. i'd love to hear it now. this was a good while ago and i remember at the time thinking hmmmmmm, so which bit DID broadcast come up with then. and the answer was no bit. in the best possible way. does anybody like seeland by the way?

there was a broadcast radio mix that they did for some website, perhaps it's the same mix.

actually, there's one on their blog at the moment, number 5

thanks koogs! yeh i remember it did have some kind of serial number. sounds great anyway.

hey cw, you still in touch with drummer j? here's broadcast radio mix 4 which has kirchin/morricone/etc for anyone interested

hello firebrand! yeh i still get quarterly book reports from JB and see him when he plays in london, he's doing fine. yep that's the tape i heard, thanks!

Fuuuuuck there was a tour cd? I looked over towards the merch booth and only saw the microtronics discs so I assumed there was nothing new. Anyone care to hook me up?

finally listening to Radio Mix 4. See the others referenced here:

http://www.broadcast.uk.net/radio.php

but don't seem to work. Any idea where to find them, online or otherwise? In any case, talk about a shopping list...

i am not liking the new lp, it's like aural adhd.

i found a pages that referenced the first 3 radio mixes but they all pointed back to the defunct warprecords site that was originally hosting them. i guess 4 and 5 will have to do.

Was just listening to HA HA sound and my god, what a perfect album. Trish Keenan's got to be one of my all-time favourite singers. Her voice is just so beautifully simple. I wish all the recent Kate-Bush wannabe songstresses (Florence, Marina, Ellie Goulding, etc) would learn from her and understand that you don't have to do add unnecessary quirks to your voice to make your music "interesting", it just makes it annoying.

someone on the broadcast forum has re-upped all the radio mixes. which is nice.

This sucks, I can't believe it! Now I'm totally depressed. I hope she pulls through.

daaamn. life support since as long ago as christmas sounds bad. is there any confirmation of this besides some facebooker who may or may not be someone?

Awful news.

magic eye says YES

:(

Good luck Trish. Sorry to hear this. Wonderful band.

^^ otm

get well soon plz trish

Hoping the life support is inaccurate, nobody's confirmed that yet have they? And the FB mention seems to have been removed (unless I'm looking at the wrong page)?

this and the jay reatard tribute are makin it a sad indie day :(

best wishes and prayers for trish.

Wow, this is bad to read about. I hope she recovers.

Oh shit, I came here hoping for some news about the new album. Wasn't expecting this. Terrible.

Christ, must've been just the other week I was listening to an interview with Trish where she mentioned how much she was looking forward to visiting Australia. I really hope she pulls through.

Trish has passed away.

OH FUCK

oh my god.

I can't really take this in. I guess with the news only emerging the other day a few weeks on that was not a good sign but this is devastating.

:-( horrible news

omg :( RIP

blueski otm. So sad. RIP Trish.

We're saying goodbye
We're waving our hands
The waves and the tide
Move the grains of sand

Oh jeez, that's terrible. When I saw the thread revive I assumed they must have some new material. Really wad'nt expecting this.

Clutching at straws here, but has this been confirmed by Warp or someone yet?

I mean, this is a joke isn't it? ;_;

i haven't seen it confirmed. just lots of tweets .

Oh no. Awful, just awful.

Sadly it is true.

i went by andrew hung of fuck buttons tweet and figured he'd be in the know - he didn't quote a source but the sparseness of his message just seemed like a reaction to direct confirmation. it does seem to have snowballed from there tho so i'm sorry to have passed it on without that confirmation.

Well, that's just a pile of awful fucking shit then. Thanks Jamie. RIP Trish. xp

Oh man! I didn't see this thread yesterday so this is a total shock - though I'm sure it must be even for those who knew she was ill. RIP and thanks for the music. :(

Awful awful news.

fuck. RIP. :(
