Ghost Box

<p>Belbury Poly is the musical project of Jim Jupp, who co-runs the Ghost Box record label with Julian House. His music evokes the experimental sounds of the 60s avant-garde, with a blend of churning synths and dreamy analogue explorations. Drawing inspiration from artists like Raymond Scott and the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, Belbury Poly creates off-key melodies, muted rhythms, and an atmosphere that is both hopeful and spooky.</p>

Ghost Box co-founder Jim Jupp and his loose ensemble of session musicians create a unique kind of upbeat spookiness. They meld krautrock, glam, faux folk and ancient TV soundtracks across eleven joyous, slightly camp and oddly unsettling instrumentals. Moving away somewhat from the haunted electronics and occult signifiers of the earlier albums, Belbury Poly employ a more diverse instrumental palette to continue the exploration and illustration of a fictional landscape. On one hand these are light, escapist mood pieces, but as ever with Ghost Box records there's an eerie sense that these sounds are bleeding through from a strangely familiar other world, moving in a very different time stream.LP - With Download.
