Come Back To Me: unheard Broadcast and a Distant Call
Broadcast present their final release
Distant Call - Collected Demos 2000-2006
Out 28th September 2024 on Warp Records
Listen to ’Come Back To Me [Demo]’:
Distant Call is a collection of early 4 track demos which were subsequently worked into finished productions appearing on the albums Haha Sound, Tender Buttons and The Future Crayon.
The album also includes two songs discovered by James after Trish’s passing: “Please Call To Book” which was her response to Broadcast's 2006 ‘Let’s Write A Song’ project, where fans were asked to submit lyrics on a postcard which would then be worked into finished song; and “Come Back To Me”, which you can listen to now:

Distant Call will be released on Trish’s Birthday September the 28th, it marks a closing of the door on Broadcast and will be the last release from the band.
Distant Call follows Spell Blanket - Collected Demos 2006-2009 which was released in May this year.
“Spell Blanket is a glimpse at what might have been. A memory of the future.” 9/10 UNCUT (Archive LP Of The Month) “A gripping set of demos outlining what Broadcast's unfinished last album could have been, with all the duo's brilliance intact.” Resident Advisor "Peer through a fragile glass and see no distinction between past, present and future" 5/5 Shindig! "A moving reminder of Broadcast's splendour" 4/5 MOJO “For Broadcast’s true believers, this is an essential and edifying experience, casting its own spells.” 4/5 Record Collector
