'exoskeleton', the second album by Bloodcog. Bloodcog is now a five-piece: Fran Bass - electric bass, Richard Harding - chapman stick and classical guitar, Phil Hargreaves - saxes/flute, Richard Harrison - drums and objects, Pete Smyth - electronics and loops. It's funkier than the first one, and according to Corey Mwamba on Radio 3, a "swagger". Watch for live shows with this line-up later in the year...

'Where We Were (Shadows of Liverpool)' is a CD on the
Leo label, which represents the culmination of four years' work.
We recorded in significant and/or unusual acoustic
locations in Liverpool, letting the environment have a say in
the shape of the music. Then we stitched the recordings together
to make an extended electro-acoustic composition, an amalgam of
snap decision making and considered construction.
