The Soundcarriers – Last Broadcast
Speaking of Stereolab and more especially their earlier selves here is Nottingham’s the Soundcarriers with an altogether fine blast of krautrock. Given its title it may also have drawn on those other purveyors of dense electronic textures Broadcast. What’s not in doubt though is the degree of joy that spins from this frothy escapade, with Leonore Wheatley’s spellbinding vocals forever outshining the shadowy unlabelled male intermissions. The song was included on the Soundcarriers sophomore LP ‘Celeste’ which came out in 2010 and the band are readying the follow-up ‘Boiling Point/This Is Normal’. In the interim perhaps you should just bow to the super-electric magnetism of ‘Last Broadcast’. KD
