Jon Brooks and D.D.Denham on The Freakzone

Last Sunday Jon Brooks was a guest on Stuart Maconie's Freak Zone on BBC6, talking about Cafe Kaput, D.D. Denham and The Advisory Circle. You can listen again for the rest of this week here.

Study Series 3 & 4 and Farmer's Angle available now

All three new titles are available in the Ghost Box shop right now. The Broadcast and Focus Group single is almost sold out, so when there's no more in our shop be sure to check with the usual stockists.

Electric Eden on The Freak Zone

There was an excellent interview with Rob Young all about his book Electric Eden on Sunday's Freak Zone on BBC6.  Its available here for the rest of the week.

...and I've just been handed a grubby scrap of paper telling me to remind you all that D.D. Denham's Electronic Music in the Classroom is now available for download.

Cafe Kaput Podcast No.6 is here at last

At long last Jon Brooks has posted No. 6 in the fantastic Cafe Kaput podcast series. Where else would you find Spacemen 3, D. D. Denham, Mort Garson, and Bruce Forsythe all in one show.

Study Series 3 and 4 and Farmer's Angle (Rev. Ed) - Pre-ordering now

This September is a big month for Ghost Box with the release of the next two singles in our Study Series. Study Series 03 "Welcome to Godalming" is a split single with Belbury Poly and Mordant Music who come together with two very different musical portraits of a small English town. Study Series 04 "Familiar Shapes and Noises" sees Broadcast and The Focus Group continuing the magickal collaboration begun on Warp's Witch Cults of the Radio Age.

Also due at the same time is Belbury Poly's Farmers Angles (Revised Edition) EP. This is an updated version of the first ever Ghost Box release. Back by popular demand, it'll be available on 10", CD and download. It features three new tracks, one a re-imagining of one of the originals by The Advisory Circle.

All three titles will be available on 10th September, but you can pre-order right now at the Ghost Box shop.

Cafe Kaput Music

Jon Brooks "off of" The Advisory Circle, has just launched his own digital only record label Cafe Kaput. The first title out of the bag is the marvellous Music in the Classroom by D.D. Denham.

It will be available 6th September through itunes, amazon and the gang. You can read the full story here and hear some clips here. I wonder if one of D.D. Denham's synthesizing machines would improve attendance at Sunday school ?

10th September 10", CD & Download

Nuclear Weapon Effects Computer

This was given to me by a friend who found a box full of them while filming in a disused MOD base on Portsdown hill overlooking Portsmouth. Its made from two white cardboard discs with a clear plastic indicator and held together with a brass hinge.

 So dialling the arrow at the bottom to a modest 5 Megaton bomb, and moving my indicator to my bunker's location at 4 miles from the centre of the blast, I see there is heavy to light damage to houses. Surprisingly, no one is dead but 10% are trapped in rubble. Of those not trapped 6% are seriously injured. I am further inconvenienced by "severe vehicle displacement".

Official advice therefore, as it tells us on teatowels and mugs up and down the country is to "Keep Calm and Carry On".

Severe Vehicle Displacement

You can find this and many other interesting objects donated by the curators, at Mark Fisher's Found Objects blog.

Position Normal

Always nice to see new faces in church.

Here's an excellent documentary all about the marvellous Position Normal by Anthony Collins of The Eel

It features Position Normal, K-Punk, Woebot, David Moynihan, Blue Firth and some music by The Focus Group and (I think) The Caretaker .

and if that wasn't enough there's an interview here too.

Séance at Notting Hill Gate

 

A couple of weeks ago workmen re-opened a tunnel in London's Notting Hill Gate tube station sealed since 1959 when escalators were installed to replace the lifts. This revealed a hoard of untouched posters which are soon to be removed and archived by The Museum of London. The pictures were taken by Mikey Ashworth for London Underground and the full set can be seen here.
