Low-Noise

A (relatively) in-depth analysis of Director's Cut by the English singer-songwriter Kate Bush. Released in 2011, the album consists of new versions of songs from the earlier albums The Sensual World (1989) and The Red Shoes (1993). All tracks have new lead vocals, drums, and instrumentation and are remixed and restructured. Some song were transposed to a lower key to accommodate Bush's lowering voice. Three of the songs, including 'This Woman's Work', have been completely re-recorded, often with lyrics changed in places. Bush described the album as a new project rather than a collection of remixes.It was Bush's first album release since 2005's Aerial and the first on her own record label, Fish People. Bush wrote all of the songs and lyrics with the exception of lines borrowed from James Joyce. The album has received mostly positive critical reviews. I do hope you enjoy this episode.

A (relatively) in-depth analysis of Boat to Bolivia by British rock/folk/pop band Martin Stephenson and the Daintees. Having become busking sensations the group were signed by Kitchenware around the same time as Prefab Sprout and released their first single in 1982. Like other Kitchenware acts the group had its origins in the North East England. The band enjoyed a high critical profile and some minor commercial success. Their best-selling and most acclaimed album is Boat to Bolivia released in 1986. Both The Daintees and Martin Stephenson have remained active in recent years. Stephenson currently lives in the highlands of Scotland and splits his time between solo and small collaborative projects with band albums and annual celebratory Daintees UK tours.

A (relatively) in-depth analysis of Ride Like the Wind by American singer-songwriter and musician Christopher Cross. Released in 1980, Ride Like the Wind was the lead single from Cross' Grammy-winning 1979 self-titled debut album. On the album's inner sleeve, Cross dedicated this song to Lowell George, formerly of the band Little Feat (do take a listen to my Little Feat episode). The song features backing vocals by Michael McDonald. Although the single never charted in the UK, it reached number two in the US Ride Like the Wind has not been covered extensively, although in 1991, Italian dance music group East Side Beat covered the song and in 2013 Belgian DJ Laurent Wéry released a version. Donald Fagen and Walter Becker of Steely Dan once invited Cross to play on their albums, but Cross declined as he belived the experience would be far too intimidating.

A (relatively) in-depth analysis of the album No Other by American singer-songwriter and musician Gene Clark. Released in 1974, No Other was Clark's fourth solo album. Largely dismissed by critics at the time it was a commercial failure. The studio time and cost were seen as indulgent by Asylum Records who did not promote the album, eventually deleting it from their catalogue a few years after its release. Clark never recovered from the failure of the album. It has since been positively reappraised and prior to Clark's death in 1991 it was reissued on CD. In the early 2000s it was reissued a second time to further reappraisal, being referred to as a lost masterpiece. In 2019 4AD launched another reissue campaign releasing the album as a CD, LP, deluxe double-CD set, and an expansive super deluxe box set with three SACDs, one Blu-ray disc, a silver-colored LP, and commemorative 80-page book.

A (relatively) in-depth analysis of English synth-pop band Blancmange (as well as some other general stuff) in (just over) thirty minutes. Formed in Harrow, London, in 1979 by vocalist Neil Arthur and instrumentalists Stephen Luscombe and Laurence Stevens, the group's name derived from the milky pudding of the same name. Stevens left shortly after the band was formed, and Arthur and Luscombe continued as a duo. They released their first EP, Irene and Mavis in 1980, but widespread exposure came via the track 'Sad Day' featuredon the Some Bizzare compilation album released in 1981. This led to them signing with London Records. Luscombe passed away in 2025 and this episode is dedicated to his contribution to the arts and culture. This is also the final episode of Season 4. Season 5 will begin in February 2026 when I hope you will join us again for more cultural rummaging. To make a classic blancmange, you combine milk, sugar, and a thickening agent (typically cornstarch or gelatin), flavour it with vanilla or other essences, cook until thickened, and then chill until set.

Released in 2002 by principal member Mike Skinner, the album is musically influenced by UK garage and American hip hop, while its lyrics tell stories of British working-class life.

A (relatively) in-depth analysis of the album Amarok by English musician Mike Oldfield. Released in 1990 by Virgin Records, Oldfield originally conceived it as an 'angry protest album'. It is presented as a single sixty-minute track of continuous, uninterrupted but constantly changing music. Although the album was not promoted with singles or a concert tour at the time, a duo comprising American pianist Gus Fogle and bassist Jason Miller performed the piece in April 2012, after it had been transcribed note for note by Welsh composer and arranger Ryan Yard. 'I am told that when men hear its voice, it stays in their ears, they cannot be rid of it. It has many different voices: some happy, but others sad. It roars like a baboon, murmurs like a child, drums like the blazing arms of one thousand drummers, rustles like water in a glass, sings like a lover and laments like a priest...' William Murray (from the short story included in the album liner notes). I do hope you enjoy this episode.

A (relatively) in-depth analysis of the Scottish rock/soul/funk band Love and Money (as well as some other general stuff) in (just under) twenty five minutes. Formed in 1985 in Glasgow, Love and Money was created by three former members of Friends Again (singer-songwriter and guitarist James Grant, drummer Stuart Kerr and keyboardist Paul McGeechan) along with bassist Bobby Paterson, who replaced Friends Again's Neil Cunningham and who had been a member of Set the Tone, a band previously signed to Island Records in 1983. In their initial nine years together they recorded four moderately successful albums, three of which were released in the United States, and had six chart hits in the United Kingdom. Love and Money went their separate ways in 1994, although they did regroup for one final gig at Glasgow Barrowland on 23 December 1994 entitled 'Love and Money: RIP'. They also reformed for a show at the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall as part of Celtic Connections 2011. Strange Kind of Love was re-issued by Cherry Red Records in 2010 and includes six unreleased demos and forewords from Grant, McGeechan and producer Gary Katz Dogs In Traffic was reissued in 2022 on vinyl and CD. The CD contained six bonus tracks. I do hope you enjoy this episode. Mathew Woodall https://www.facebook.com/share/1F15mx4ea3/ https://buymeacoffee.com/lownoise Why buy me a coffee?

A (relatively) in-depth analysis of the English post-rock band Bark Psychosis (as well as some other general stuff) in (just under) twenty five minutes. Originally, Bark Psychosis was a quartet of Graham Sutton, Daniel Gish, John Ling and Mark Simnett. This line-up (with contributions from other passing members) recorded early singles and EPs plus the debut album Hex, before gradually dissolving over the course of 1994, with Sutton moving on to his drum and bass project Boymerang and to production work. Sutton reformed the group in 2004 without any of the other previous members, as a flexible project in which he was supported by a shifting roster of guest musicians (including Talk Talk drummer Lee Harris and experimental guitarist Colin Bradley of Dual). In 2005, Bark Psychosis released the 400 Winters EP. This featured three Dustsucker album tracks 'deconstructed and reassembled' by Colin Bradley. Bark Psychosis has been dormant since 2005, mainly due to Sutton concentrating on his work as a producer. Pendulum Man was featured in the 2008 movie Definitely, Maybe. In 2017 Hex was reissued on vinyl and CD on Fire Records. I do hope you enjoy this episode.

Bernard Sumner and Peter Hook formed the band (initially called Warsaw) after attending a 1976 Sex Pistols concert. While Joy Division's first recordings were heavily influenced by punk, they soon developed a sparse sound and style that made them one of the pioneering groups of the post-punk genre. Their self-released 1978 debut EP An Ideal for Living drew the attention of Tony Wilson, who signed them to his independent label Factory Records. Their debut album Unknown Pleasures, recorded with producer Martin Hannett, was released in 1979. Despite a short career, Joy Division have exerted a wide-reaching influence and achieved widespread critical acclaim. I do hope you enjoy this episode.
