Remastered for vinyl with all new artwork from Admiral Greyscale.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Dead air” is what broadcasters are supposed to avoid at all costs, what continuity personnel are employed to plug up with pleasantries. Mordant’s fascination with that lost figure, the TV announcer, led them to track down Philip Elsmore, whose warm, soothing tones will be recognizable to anyone who grew up in the UK in the 1970s from his work for ITV regional franchises like Tyne Tees and Thames.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe duo persuaded Elsmore to come out of retirement and provided continuity for Dead Air, his reassuring voice applied to an increasingly bizarre series of utterances, from \"apologies for the sundry glitches… in the meantime, keep your nerve\" to “the following contains graphic scenes of a strobing magpie's wing\" to “keep sporing in the nessst”. Near the end, Elsmore declares that \"Mordant Music will be back once the dust has settled with more vague unpleasantness.”\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Assai Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55712672940415,"sku":"CIS070LP","price":28.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1565\/5653\/files\/5060889590066.jpg?v=1752659824","url":"https:\/\/assai.co.uk\/products\/mordant-music-dead-air-vinyl-lp-due-out-22-08-25","provider":"Assai Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
