New Broadcast (RIP Trish Keenan Jan 2011)

Digital tracks don't have the sibilance though. It's a pressing issue.

This year's Trish Keenan birthday track post from James Cargill, beautiful version of a song from Haha Sound https://t.co/L8fV1ct7AI

That was wonderful, thanks Ned!

Aww that was nice. She was the best.

This is not your sawtooth wave

"Dead The Long Year" came on shuffle and I thought it was some mid-90s RZA track until it got a bit weird.

still tripping out to “… investigate with cults of the radio age” over here

greatest band of the late 90's/00's

New album of demos coming out in early 2024 - been waiting so long for something like this, total holy grail release

Since Trish's untimely passing in 2011, James has continued to remember her by sharing unreleased Broadcast demos each year on her birthday, September 28th.

In the spirit of those birthday demos Broadcast present “Spell Blanket - Collected Demos 2006-2009"

The collection comprises songs and sketches drawn from Trish's extensive archive of 4-track tapes and minidiscs. The recordings lay the groundwork for what would have been Broadcast’s fifth album, offering an intimate window into the creative process of Trish and James during this period post Tender buttons.

'Spell Blanket - Collected Demos 2006-2009' will be released via Warp Records in early 2024.

I’m both sad and thrilled

Yes, that.

Was inspired to listen to The Noise Made By People in between listening to Gwenno’s solo albums which are somewhat similar on another thread and it’s sounding so great right now.

Some days it feels like Until Then is the last song ever written.

Can't wait for these!

hard same

Damn straight.

C'mon don't put a 36 song release on streaming with ONE song available and we have to wait till May?

Cruel.

One sample song is beautiful of course and one can only wonder what could've been.

Holy cow!

woah new song sounds great, all in on this

yeah new song great but "Tears In The Typing Pool" (demo) also amazing... seemingly effortless to have a melody and structure like that already fleshed out from the start.

that new song is stunning, amazing how hypnotic and compelling and complete it sounds with just three (?) elements - it makes me think of how tender buttons was an unfinished recording that was actually perfect, similar (much sadder) vibes here

it’s going to kill me, I expect. it must be very hard for James to put these out. I love the cover art as well.

Gee, it really is two discs. September (!) for the 2000-2006 volume lol. Wasn't sure how to interpret the cover images on a certain Context-Free Streaming Platform. Only got as far as digging that photocopier aesthetic.

Both are coming out in May, a couple of weeks apart. Unless you mean vinyl?

Never mind I didn’t read the small type properly. Dammit, seriously, September?!

Duh. Distant Call is coming out on Trish’s birthday — what a beautiful way to wrap up this tradition, and the whole story.

There's something very final (obviously) but probably healthy about "This will be the last music from Broadcast".

had a look at the Spell Blanket track listing and nothing seemed to be obviously ‘Eyes Open’ or ‘Dulcimer Jam’… but i guess time will tell
