Winter Tales CD of the Month & Marconi Union Interview This Weekend on Echoes.
The Holidays are coming and we have your soundtrack with a new collection called Winter Tales, the Echoes December CD of the Month. It gathers new works for the season, including songs from Brian and Roger Eno, Balmorhea, Peter Gregson, Ane Brun and Dustin O’Halloran. Read John Diliberto’s review of Winter Tales and hear it this weekend on Echoes.
We hear from a true 21st century band when we talk to Marconi Union. The British electronic trio has a new album called Signals that finds them tapping a more rhythmic, drum-driven sound, even though there are no drums. They talk about influences from 60s psychedelia, “but not the prissy stuff” and 70s German rock, and try to hide the mystery of Ilex. Signals was the November Echoes CD of the Month. Tune in Marconi Union on Echoes.
