The Boats are of course the well known
duo of Craig Tattersall and Andrew
Hargreaves, now joined by Danny Norbury
on cello, as well as Chris Stewart and
Elaine Reynolds on vocals. Craig has
previously recorded under Hood, the
Archivist and The Remote Viewer, runs
the Cotton Goods label and co-runs the
excellent Moteer and Mobeer labels with
Andrew Johnson. Andrew Hargreaves
records as Beppu and co-runs the LaciesÆ
label with his partner, Alice. As The
Boats they have released various works
on Moteer, Our Small Ideas, Flau
(ÆFaulty Toned RadioÆ) and Home Normal
with æWords Are Something ElseÆ. The
newest member to The Boats as of 2009 is
the very talented Danny Norbury. He
regularly works with Library Tapes, as
well as being one-half of the duo Le
Lendemain (with David Wenngren aka
Library Tapes), and he has also recorded
solo projects for Ono, Static Caravan
and last yearÆs wonderful Light In
August release on LaciesÆ.
During the various meetings, phone calls
and emails back and forth, we decided
that it would be a perfect time to
release something of an æunknownÆ
overview of where The Boats are at and
what they have done over the years. flau
and Home Normal decided that it would be
entirely appropriate to do a one-off
collaborative release between Home
Normal and Flau, as we are such closely
tied labels, mutual friends with The
Boats, and as a way of coming together
for an album release to tie in with our
combined Boats and Danny Norbury Japan
tour in May of this year.
The result of all this is Sleepy Insect
Music, a compilation of unreleased or
very limited edition works on
compilations and Our Small Ideas, an
unreleased remix and reworking of
previously released work (ÆraindropsÆ).
As such it is an essential collection of
work for Boats fans and new listeners
alike, a wonderful summary of who The
Boats are, or the perfect introduction,
however you want to view it.
