The Details: The Advisory Circle, Mind How You Go: Revised Edition (Ghost Box, 2010)
A Quick Review: Jon Brooks is a self-proclaimed “composer, producer, mastering engineer, vinyl archivist and ornithologist” who really digs the kind of clouded clips teachers used to show during science classes. His imaginary synth scores are more hopeful than Boards of Canada’s brokenhearted beats, however. This is library record-like nostalgia, washed down with a wink and a nudge, not a pile of old photos going up in flames. See also: 2008’s Other Channels LP.
