Biography
This release is part one of a 3-album concept that will be released throughout 2009. Erased Tapes Records has been selected as DIY label of the week on Huw Stephens’ BBC Radio One show. Their beautiful lavish packaging is a sight to behold, especially when the LP carries a code for a free album download.
After releasing four critically acclaimed albums with Milo and being the host of other production duties ranging from Get Cape. Wear Cape Fly to Enter Shikari, Lockey is emerging as the pre-eminent young British producer. Lockey’s music is supplemented on BEF by the vocal talents ex-My Architects conspiritor Aid Burrows. The creative partnership between the two was forged despite geographical difficulties: using a process not to dissimilar to Benjamin Gibbard and Jimmy Tamborello’s Postal Service, Lockey constructed the music in isolation in Newcastle upon Tyne and then, via the magic of the internet, sent it on to the Warrington based Burrows who supplied lyrics and vocals before sending the music back to Lockey for mixing and Erased Tapes founder Robert Raths for co-production and mastering. This meant that neither Justin nor Aid never met together in the whole recording process. The result is an inspired collection of songs that are representative of the return of progressive, genre-defying music to the British Isles.

Saw them for a second time last night, but it wasn't all that great sadly... lots of sound problems and a short set, etc. Mostly new songs too, they all seem a lot simpler than the 1st album tunes, but still decent. They didn't really need 2 drummers this time either, but they still had 'em.
