Graeme Jefferies - I’m Not Listening To Your Station

This is the first offering from the 100 reel strong Graeme Jefferies analogue tape library and features unreleased and demo material from 1982 onwards from when Graeme was a member of the Nocturnal Projections.

It also contains unused material that was presented at This Kind of Punishment production meetings around the 5 by 4 period and includes three songs written on the TKP piano in Auckland during the spring of 1985.

Cakekitchen mainman Robert Key plays his instantly recognisable style to three of the tracks that come from a 10 song pre first gig recording session that Sombretone head honcho Craig Mason captured on Graeme’s Teac 4 track in early 1988 when the band was still a two piece line up before Rachel King arrived.

Belgian violinist Dieter Rooseuw makes a welcome return to the master plan on the closing track Departure Lounge and the demo two piece live road map that Graeme sent Brett Jones for a gig at the San Francisco Bathhouse of the Nocturnal Projections chestnut Could It Be Increased? rounds up the goodies in this remarkable set of hidden gems.

The cover photo features Graeme and Robert covered in bizarre stage makeup on their way to an early gig at the Rising Sun on K Road. The gig was on the same night that they were invited to an alien party at Martin Phillips's house. So they decided to kill two birds with one stone and played the gig wearing really weird outfits. The cover photograph was taken by Loren Squires.

This is a very limited self financed pressing run and won't be around for very long. So secure your copy now while stocks last. In keeping with the tape archive aspect of the LP release, the boys in the lab have managed to find live video clips of some of these unreleased songs actually being performed from shows played in Europe.
