Broadcast - The Future Crayon

The Future Crayon by Broadcast

3...according to our on Thu 16 Nov, 2006.

Phil likes BROADCAST and Ant doesn't so that's my link to the review of The new Broadcast album. Terrible I know. I'll understand if you can't bare to read on... So 'The Future Crayon' is basically a collection of 18 tracks taken from rare & limited edition singles, EP's and compilations. It's not that I dislike them, I just wouldn't say I liked them. The lady does have a really sweet voice, you regular readers know I have a bit of a soft spot for a sexy female voice. This lady could look like Grotbags for all I know but if she came round mine I'd still get a boner as soon as she opened her gob and started belting out those sultry tones. Warp have kindly compiled these works onto one handy CD and double vinyl. You Broadcast fans out there will more than likely have most of the tracks on here possibly with the exception of 'Hammer Without a Master' which was exclusive to Warp's 'We Are Reasonable People' comp from 1998 and 'DDL' which appeared on an All Tomorrows Parties compilation. I'm off to ATP in December. Can't freakin' wait...
