Description

This week, J. Willgoose, Esq, from Public Service Broadcasting joins me. On the eve of the release of the band’s new LP, Bright Magic, an impressionistic journey through Berlin. So obviously we had to have a chat, right?Enigmatic, immersive, atmospheric, each time PBS emerge, they take on a subject and to me, its like falling into a deep book. From exploring the cold war space race so well that Jodie Whitaker would listen to their LP, The Race For Space, to help her get into the zone to play Doctor Who, to tackling the British coal industry. Now, J. has made an album about Berlin. It’s got Blixa Bargeld on it, singer EERA the ace German actress Nina Hoss and they recorded it at Hansa, where Bowie recorded Low. J. Turns out to be a charming self-depracating chap and he opens up about the loneliness of being in a new city, talks frankly about finding creative sparks and there’s even a bit of politics too on contemporary Britain.Title music by ESOThe new Public Service Broadcasting album, Bright Magic, is available from September 12th here.
