Matthew Bourne and Frank Vigrouxs gritty reinterpretation of Kraftwerks pioneering Radio-Activity album, produced to mark its 40th anniversary. Radioland weaves its own, highly individual mesh of electronics, including blizzards of analogue, antique futurist percussive patterns, rewired melodies, processed versions of sounds recently discovered in space by NASA, short and longwave radio samples, including snatches of R&B and hip-hop, whose synthetic tones find their ancestry in Kraftwerk, hurricanes of modulated electronics, vocoders ebbing and throbbing; its like the detritus of 40 light years of electropop all colliding at once. However, Vigroux and Bourne come from a background in improvisation that enables them to master all these forces unleashed, occasionally dropping back into periods of near-silence, Stockhausen-esque moments of eerie free floating, in which all thats audible is the sound of the universe breathing.
LP limited to 1000 copies in deluxe gatefold sleeve with CD.
