So I guess it is time to confess that I’m an airplane nut. I grew up on air force bases all over the US never living in one place more than a year. The flight lines seemed to always be close to our base housing so I was constantly exposed to military aircraft. I was fascinated with all of the fighter jets and bombers on the bases and this grew into a fascination with WWI and WWII aircraft as well.
I tell you all of this because it might help explain my obsession with Public Service Broadcasting, today’s featured band for this Two’fer Tuesday post. Public Service Broadcasting is an electronic music duo that takes samples from old public information films, archive footage and propaganda material, and uses it as the basis for incredible electronic music videos. I really can’t explain it any better than that ….. you really need to see it to understand it! So……without further ado…….here’s Public Service Broadcasting with Spitfire……
If you’re like me you might be thinking…. Ok that’s a pretty cool gimmick but how can you translate that into a live performance. Here’s an answer to that question in form of a video of Public Service Broadcasting playing Spitfire live……
I realize this might not be everyone’s cup of tea but I really like it. If they’re ever anywhere close to Northern Alabama I plan to see them live. If you’re interested in hearing more, check out their debut album released last May, Inform-Educate-Entertain.
