The Space Project compilation album featuring songs by a host artists including Spiritualized, Beach House and Youth Lagoon has been made available to stream online.
The LP, which features 14 tracks and will be released on April 19 for Record Store Day, incorporates sounds recorded in space during the Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 space probes. You can listen to the album courtesy of NPR here.
The new issue of Uncut went on sale at the end of last week, with a cover story by Peter Watts on The Ramones that celebrates the 40th anniversary of a band of punk misfits from Forest Hills, New York, who revolutionised rock’n’roll, the opening lines of one of whose earliest songs, “Blitzkrieg Bop”, gives its name to this month’s free CD.
Apologies for the frustrating gaps that appear in this week’s playlist. A lot of 2014 releases arriving in the office now, some of which haven’t been officially announced. As a consequence I have to keep their identities suppressed for the time being; I’ll try and fill in the missing words once these albums are formally unveiled.
