The limited edition CD by Andy Partridge called POWERS is exclusively available from the Ape Store but is going fast. Hurry or you’ll miss bagging one of only 500 copies of this spooky set of sound pieces inspired by the sci-fi art of Richard M Powers.
Here is a taster of the project. The first piece from the disc and a collage of some of the sensational book jacket art that caught Andy’s imagination at a very young age and led ultimately to this release.

On her recent trip to the UK Jen was filmed giving this rather divine solo rendition of the song Querquehouse from her brand new album WARM ROBOT. buy

With camerawork and lights by Mitch Keene, and the sound captured by APEs Stuart Rowe and Andy P, Jen sits and fingerpicks her way through the song in a mesmerising fashion. If this is the quality of her performances then you’d be a silly billy to miss her when she arrives in the UK next week for her one woman mini tour. Check out the tour news item for details, in the meantime drink in this film and enjoy.

With her heavenly APE debut album WARM ROBOT only a mere few weeks away, New Mexico’s neutron nymphet Jen Olive presents part 2 of the album podcast. Jen walks you warmly through such beautiful songs as the seashore seance ALL MY HEADS MEET, the lucid luminescence of WAFFLESONS DREAM and the sugar sad swing of HERE I GO.

This is one truly beautiful record that we at APE are very proud of. Captain Andy P himself mixed the music and even contributed percussion and little keyboard dabs in places. WARM ROBOT is released on March 28th but we will be making it available to pre-order before then, with the added bonus of a free download version for the early birds. We’ll update you on it all as soon as we can, in the meantime enjoy part 2 of Jens podcast.
