Early call for Record Store Day patrons and something that ought by rights be at the top of most self respecting punters wants lists this April time is a by all accounts awesome sounding compilation being put out by the Lefse imprint.
‘Space Projects’ takes its core remit from the raw sonic materials recorded by Voyagers 1 and 2, as the brief points out not sounds as such but electromagnetic fluctuations taken from the magnetosphere of the planets they passed with each celestial body formed of differing densities, masses and elements with the result that they emit a unique sonic signature. Pressed on both vinyl and CD and a highly collectable 7 inch box set ’Space Projects’ features a stellar cosmic cast headed up by Spiritualized Mississippi Space Program – or to you and me – er – Spiritualized – Beach House, The Antlers, Youth Lagoon, Jesu, Larry Gus and many, many more…….here’s a sneak peak of that aforementioned Spiritualized groove entitled ‘Always Forgetting With you (the bridge song)’ all cosmically bubble wrapped in a dream drifting love note lullaby. Gem like.
