Video: That icy FM sound
I remember hearing the first Alt-J album and thinking there were all kinds of freaky sounds happening. But it's more simple: it's just the 80s all over again, right?
From the KEXP live performance of Bloodflood (?) I really like the icepick quality of the sound they're getting out of that consumer-looking keyboard. (Built in speakers!) I think a good reference would be like Madonna Lucky Star.
