just trawling though the backlog and i chance upon this little nugget sent to me by the zoon man himself.
it seems that tonight (april 27th), broadcast 2000 are to get their big break with a radio session on 6 music tonight.
so, to coincide with such a joyous occasion (ok ok, i’ll admit it, i haven’t heard any of their material .. ), a remix of one of the bands tracks is being released to the wire.
now, according to the biography of zoon van snook, the man has worked with all sorts of ireallylovemusic faves (boca45, minotaur shock, tunng, dextro, various ninja tune folks), and is due to release his debut album, (falling from) the nutty tree, later in the year.
which if this remix is any indication as to the quality on offer, i’m in the queue.
beta band harmonies that spin your head, tunng styled laptop beats, and a childlike innocence throughout, makes this a wonderfully playful and melodic listen.
absolutely perfect to go with this spate of early doors sunshine that the country is currently experiencing.
