AAAAAA!!!
there's a piece of music I heard ages ago and really liked and I've been trying to find it for ages and ages and it's been driving me mad but I think I recognise the name and I think it's by them!
thank you. I have been humming that unsuccessfully at people for years.
I didn't know they did the music for Napoleon dynamite either
i like.
I prefer the original version on Broadcasting from Home
but I've been listening to that album for years thanks to my mum so it's natural.
Massive fan of Broadcasting from Home
I guess Napoleon Dynamite will have given them a bit of a boost?
The albums got reissued this week
so I may look into getting one or two of them.
Ive got four albums
theyre quite cheap these days. Excellent stuff, like a more 80's belle orchestre or summat. Although I am a bit sick of hearing 'music for a found harmonium' everywhere.
Really lame name.
Your name would be better if you were TheSoundofPenguins
One of my favourites....
Used to have a tape with Broadcasting from Home and another album on it that got played all the time i nthe car when I was a kid... Still love it now. The late Simon Jeffe was a minimalist genius, which makes it a real pity that so much of his music has been used for bank adverts and car adverts and... well, you get the picture.
Love em.
You are not alone. :)
Wonderful
Penguin Cafe Primer is a good Best Of, the self-titled album probably my favourite of the regular albums.
True about being ruined by ads - I got into them shortly before Telephone & Rubber Band got co-opted as a T-Mobile ad, and I really can't hear that now without thinking of mobiles.
Really regret not seeing them in '94 when I had the chance.
