I used to get nervous like the whole of that day of the show, and now it only happens the moment I walk onstage," she later said in a 1998 interview.

But that is not what Radio Age is about. It is about those textures and acidy little trips on the back pages of albums and films all over the 60s. Broadcast are so good, they can perfectly bring off what may SEEM formless and have the disciplne to make it work over an entire album. Everything segues well and works over the long haul here.

Broadcast and The Focus Group. Broadcast and The Focus Group Investigate Witch Cults Of The Radio Age. Overview (current section).

The Focus Group is Julian House, maintainer of the Ghost Box label, a repository for library music, soundtracks and other such cut and paste retro-futuristic pieces that are commonly grouped together under the genre heading 'hauntology'. Such reimagining of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, hugely influential to the British wing of avant-garde sonic experimentalists, makes the pair a fair match. What such a meeting of similarly attuned minds turns out isn't so much a coherent body of popular music work as a collage of found sounds and snippets of investigative layered breaks

The new Broadcast album, in the company of Julian House’s Focus Group, has proved to be one of those records that resist, in some way, being written about. Perhaps it may be something to do with how Broadcast And The Focus Group Investigate Witch Cults Of The Radio Age is a slippery, fragmentary listen; a collage of 23 disjointed, often dislocated snippets that feel as if they’ve been harvested from a dusty collection of neglected old soundtracks
