Rafael Anton Irisarri puts together a playlist for us of Broadcast’s Trish Keenan, very devastating news for all music lovers.
“Last week I was extremely saddened by Trish Keenan’s tragic, untimely death. She was a brilliant, talented artist and her music became a huge inspiration to me. I love the sound of her voice, it was absolutely fantastic. The first time I heard Broadcast, I thought everytime her parts would come in, it was the work of an angel.
When Jakub asked me do a guest spot on ISO50 this week, I couldn’t think of anything else but Broadcast. So, with that in mind, I went over my collection and selected my favorite songs from their catalog. It was supposed to be only 4 tracks, but what can I say, I really liked their music so I ended up using 14 tracks instead. I never got to meet Trish, but I feel very lucky to have discovered her music and at least gotten to know that aspect of her life.”
Whoa Whoa Whoa! Where is “Booklovers?!”
i too am a broadcast/keenan fan.
their music definitely settles in and finds a place in your life that when listening back years later you are magically transported in a very tangible way to your life at that time.
total bummer.
Thanks for putting a tribute up. I was shocked to heard the news. My favorite Tears in the Typing Pool.
Is there anyway to download the mix?
a true gem, broadcast. great set. i’m partial to the later work, myself.
so sad, true tragedy. i’m glad i got to see her live. RIP
Ominous Clouds is probably in my all-time top favorite tracks (as it is in my wife’s, who posted just after hearing about her death: Listen) I loved everything old and everything new and will listen to Broadcast until I’m old as hell.
Sometimes tragedies are learning experiences for others. I’ve only heard of the band, but listening to these made me a fan (albiet a little too late). Thanks for sharing.
ominous clouds is definitely one of my favorites to. it makes me so sad that there are so few women that are not like machines. we will all miss trish!
