More new music.
This was initially going to be an 80's album but then I realised that it wasn't that simple. It's really about all the stuff that influences you but that you don't put on your PR material because it doesn't sound worthy enough. The melodies and sounds that have lived rent free in the back of your head since childhood and that are burned into your memory.
Film and TV theme themes, the first albums and bands that you got in to, the music your elder sibling played, heard once removed through your bedroom wall. Your parent's record collection, formative sounds, you get the picture I'm sure.
It's all me apart from Dan Hudson on drums (who wasn't even born during the aforementioned period) and
Jon Waugh of Plini and The 1975 fame on Sax.
Please share as I've virtually no traction on social media nowadays
