The Radcliffe & Maconie Show - 27/07/2009

With a live session from the Brooklyn trio Au Revoir Simone. Made principally using keyboards, drum machines and hand percussion, Au Revoir Simone's sound is defined by their instrumentation. In their own words, they make "warm and organic electronic music with forthright female vocalists". Their debut mini album Verses of Comfort, Assurance and Salvation was recorded in Brooklyn, in their friend/producer/manager Rod's basement apartment (recorded in a former shower stall rigged up with quilts and fancy microphones to resemble a vocal booth).
