Some rather spiffing electronica for you today in the form of Trans-Edale Express by Åyusp.
Åyusp (pronounced "Oy-usp") is an experimental electronica outfit consisting of two Sheffield based musicians, Graham McElearney (who has previously worked with bands such as Regal Worm, Amorphous Androgynous, In The Nursery, Animat and Reverend & The Makers) and Paul Mills (formally a member of PsychoAcoustic SoundClash and The Weird & The Wonderful).
The band formed out of a shared affection for German electronic music of the Seventies, fusing these influences with an equal passion for ambient, classical, industrial and contemporary dance music.
In addition to working on their self-released debut album, Åyusp, they have also been doing a bit of audio archaeology recreating an excerpt from Tangerine Dream's 1975 York Minster gig. This piece was recently played by Stuart Maconie on his BBC 6 Music "Freak Zone" show.
If you like your retro synths, we think you're going to really enjoy this.
