Review

LTM are proud to announce the release of a CD of singles and rarities by Northern Picture Library, the cult London band featuring three former members of The Field Mice. Northern Picture Library were formed by Bobby Wratten, Annemari Davies and Mark Dobson after The Field Mice split in 1991. NPL was a much less highly-strung project, less song-based and more dark and ambient than before, drawing influence from Talk Talk, Brian Eno and ambient/dance crossover. Melody maker described their album Alaska (already released on CD by LTM) as "one of the debut albums of 1993" and the band as "state of the art, post-ambient electropoppers who write some of the most beautiful songs in existence." Postscript gathers together the eight tracks from the 1994 eps Blue Dissolve and Paris, together with the rare compilation track Something Good (from a Sound of music tribute, no less!), and three previously unreleased tracks. These include Alaska outtake Snowscene, Ammonia Train (a Stars of Heaven cover) and an extraordinary remix of Welcome to California, originally recorded by Katmandu. Postscript boasts all new artwork. The 12 remastered tracks give a total running time of 66 minutes. Career Precis: formed in suburban Mitcham in 1987, The Field Mice released seven singles and three albums on Sarah Records. The group split at the end of 1991 but are now recognised as genre-leaders. Chief songwriter Bobby then formed Northern Picture Library, who released an album and three singles between 1993 and 1994. Bobby currently fronts Trembling Blue Stars. Their 5th album The Seven Autumn Flowers was released in 2004 on Elefant.
