Nick+Gerald - Haven Green

Nick+Gerald are Nick Gaiger and Gerald Berliner. They hail from West London, first meeting at school in Ealing and have remained life-long friends ever since. In 1993 Gerald left London to take up residence in NYC where he now lives. Nick remained in London. Not letting a mere 3000 miles get in the way, they forged a transatlantic collaboration to continue their shared passion for making music, only this time from either side of the ocean.

The Real Tuesday Weld -Last Words

Welcome to the world of The Real Tuesday Weld, a.k.a. British singer-songwriter and audio provocateur Stephen Coates, wedding the suggestive hiss of ancient shellacs and vintage radio transmissions to the latest samples, loops and glitchy beats. I first heard this song just before recording the podcast, and on impulse leapfrogged all the other songs in my "telp shortlist"

More On This Album

bloodWIRE - Boardwater and Absence

Based out of Oakland, California, Bloodwire are Shawn Briceand I-Li Chang. These 2 songs are from their first album “Transformation”, a selection of epic grooves and succinct pop songs, always with an emotional core. In 2006, Patrick Harte (Mellow Drunk - previously played on the electrical language podcast) was recruited to play drums. The trio are currently writing new material.

Oliver Future - Stranger Than The Stranger

Oliver Future’s sophomore album, Pax Futura, is really a love story – one of a Los Angeles via Austin band in crisis in their adopted city, and the newly relocated Brooklyn producer, Adam Lasus (the ubiquitous Yo La Tengo) with something to prove in his new hometown.

Epic but not pretentious, political but not self-righteous, the album is a bizarre sound journey with interweaving plots and surprises along the way. Indeed, Pax Futura is a love story of L.A. outcasts united, even if it is comprised of songs about the apocalypse and Hurricane Katrina.
