Live music in the studio this week, courtesy of a visit from Essex-based singer songwriter The Emotion Signal.
He performed three songs for us and we had a catch up regarding everything from the collapse of HMV to the songwriting process and The Emotion Signal early years. You can listen to the interview and all three tracks below.

And finally, there’s a new My Bloody Valentine album. Wait a minute, I’ll try again..THERE’S A NEW MY BLOODY VALENTINE ALBUM!!!!. Sorry, but a new (and very good) album from the legendary band is something to shout about. I still can’t actually believe that it’s finally been released.
