ENDLESS AIR - REMASTERED FLAC EDITION & BONUS EP


Additional Moog's second album "Endless Air" has been remastered and resequenced. The new version is now on sale in a variety of digital formats at £4.99 / $8.99 including FLAC.

We took the decision to alter the track listing and selected alternative mixes on some songs.

The new version replaces the original CD pressing (which is now deleted and will not be repressed) and all previous digital versions of the album.

We've taken the opportunity to make the album available in a variety of digital formats, enabling you to buy the album for your iPod or mp3 player - or burn your own copy of the CD from lossless studio-quality files.

For the best sound, choose from Apple Lossless or FLAC. Both formats can be converted to WAVs if you wish - using software such as dBPoweramp - with no loss of quality, making them suitable for burning onto Audio CD.

Alternatively, the album is also available in lossy mp3 format at the high quality 320kbps bit rate.

Each download includes artwork and photos, enabling you to print your own CD inlay.

The albums also come with a previously unreleased bonus EP containing three out-takes from the album sessions : Picnic Injection 1974, Trout Thing and Radio Silence (Radio Edit)

Future plans include a 24 bit FLAC remixed version of Additional Moog's debut album Thirty Three & A Third



The digital album is now on sale from our store.

Endless Air - the new Additional Moog album, out now!

Our new album "Endless Air" is finally out!

You can buy the album from various outlets. If you're on line that includes iTunes and Napster.

Fans outside the UK can get the CD from CDBaby. http://cdbaby.com/cd/additionalmoog2

You can also order the CD direct from Fight This Generation! at : http://ftg.bigcartel.com/

The album has had some nice reviews so far from magazines such as Clash and Maverick. We've also had some radio play on BBC 6 Music courtesy of Tom Robinson and Stephen Merchant.

NME Radio's also been playing "Silver Diver" regular basis.

BBC 6 Music, Clash Magazine & Rapidshare


BBC 6 Music's Tom Robinson featured "Radio Silence" on his show last Friday. He played the full 7 minute album version - rather than the Radio Edit.

Meantime, "Endless Air" has been given a very positive review in next month's Clash magazine where it was rated 7/10.

Sadly, the new album is being heavily bootlegged on the internet. We'd urge any true music lovers to buy the actual CD or the official download version to enable Admoog to carry on making music.

Above all, please don't download the album from those Russian mp3 sites that sell songs for $0.10. The money funds illicit activities and musicians never get a penny.

Endless Air - reviews

We've just heard that our new album has been awarded 4 out of 5 by the highly respected country publication "Maverick". The review's due in the June issue.

Meanwhile, for our Dutch supporters, here's a review from "Alt Country NL" who also gave the album 4 stars :

Van synthesizers zijn we niet echt verrukt in rootsland. Maar soms… Wat te denken van bijvoorbeeld een band als Additional Moog. Met die groepsnaam begint het al. En jawel, die ouderwetse Moog-synthesizer komt er inderdaad aan te pas op Endless Air (eigen beheer) van deze Britse band. Maar, zoals ook al duidelijk mag zijn, hooguit als een toevoeging. Op het uitstekende debuut Thirty Three & A Third ging de band aan het werk in het verlengde van het Schotse Teenage Fanclub, maar deze nieuwe plaat is nog iets ambitieuzer. Quietly Through The Canyon is alleen door die titel al een fraai begin. Met Kicking Static doen ze aan het soort soul van Stillhouse, terwijl Harmonica Fuel brandstof zou kunnen zijn voor liefhebbers van Fleet Foxes. Holy Jukebox kent Byrdsy gitaarwerk. Het sleutelstuk van de plaat is Radio Silence, een ruim zeven minuten durend stuk dat begint met statisch geruis en iets dat lijkt op het draaien aan een radioknop waarbij geen enkele zender ontvangen wordt, en waar gaandeweg de ambities gaan richting het vernieuwende werk van Wilco. In Signs On Fifty-Four horen we het hoge geluid van de Moog in al zijn glorie, terwijl afsluiter The Slow Fade dan weer gaat richting westcoast door flonkerende gitaarboogjes en beheerste samenzang. Verkrijgbaar bij CD Baby.
