As part of the definitive reissue series from Warp Records, the long-out-of-print The Future Crayon returns to vinyl. This expansive double-LP collection serves as a "hand-crafted" chronological journey through Broadcast’s rarities, B-sides, and non-album tracks, spanning the years 1996 to 2003. It is a "promethean" document of the band’s creative thrust, capturing the high-contrast evolution from their early 60s-inspired psychedelic pop to the more abstract, "strange and mesmerizing" electronic landscapes that would define their later legacy.

The Future Crayon is a mandatory acquisition for those who want to see behind the curtain of the Broadcast musical cosmos. Within these 18 tracks, Trish Keenan’s "celestial" vocals float over an ever-shifting foundation of vintage synthesis and "hand-crafted" percussive textures. From the cinematic warmth of their early singles to the jagged, experimental strategies of their mid-career transition, the album provides a quintessential summary of a band that was constantly pushing the boundaries of the sonic universe.
