Public Service Broadcasting have set their fourth studio LP for release on September 24th.
Following the wonderfully evocative 2015 album The Race For Space, Public Service Broadcasting are once again moving their eyes from the skies to the streets on their next record Bright Magic.
As with the follow-up to The Race For Space – 2017’s Every Valley – J. Willgoose, Esq., Wrigglesworth and JFAbraham will be focusing on the cultural heartbeat of a metropolis, this time Berlin in three parts entitled Building A City / Building A Myth / Bright Magic.
“Doing this felt inevitable, somehow,” J. Willgoose, Esq. says. “In my head, it was whirring and pulsing away for a long time, even before Every Valley – this fascinating, contrary, seductive place.”
