Theremin, traces of soundtracks from old spy movies, Hammond organ, echoes of 1960s Swinging London, buzzing analog instruments that seem like they were invented yesterday... Broadcast loves to look back and dress their compositions with the dusty aura of the past, creating a twilight atmosphere, extremely evocative and leaving the listener with a sensation as deep as it is vague and undefined.

Suspended in the enchantment of time, Work And Non Work is almost impenetrable - but not difficult. All nine tracks are relentless - insistent like certain autumn rains - in proposing hypnotic rhythms that occasionally cause dizziness; let's hold onto Trish Keenan's voice, childish and crystalline, candid and stern like the slender body of a teenager.

Work And Non Work is a disorienting and beautiful experience: it is the past reflected in the future, it is analog reproduced with digital, it is first-class music made even with second-hand instruments.
