└──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
│ │
│ Back in the last century, Andrew was a struggling punk rocker- │
│ turned-Hip-Hop DJ and college dropout in Minneapolis, Minnesota. │
│ Frustrated by (self-imposed) musical limits and depressed with a │
│ tendency towards upper-respiratory ailments, Andrew began │
│ recording songs on his 4-track that combined his scratching │
│ skills with snippets of acoustic guitar and keyboards. │
│ After writing lyrics for some of these pieces, Andrew, for the │
│ very first time anywhere, sang. The result was a record released │
│ on his own label (Dinkytown Records) as The Fog. After Adam │
│ Drucker (Dose One) became the album's champion, Andrew │
│ landed a deal with Ninja Tune. His first record for the London- │
│ based label was a re-tooled version of his first record and, │
│ dropping that meddlesome "The," Fog was loosed upon the world. │
│ │
│ If Fog's first record was turntables first, everything else │
│ after, Fog's next two releases reversed the equation. With Ether │
│ Teeth, Andrew shattered his turntables on layers of piano, │
│ guitar and delicate surrealist sweetness.Turntablism enthusiasts │
│ and, well, most others were puzzled by Andrew's new piano-driven │
│ direction. But fans and critics that did connect with Ether │
│ Teeth really │
│ connected, and that record gave Andrew an extremely devoted fan │
│ base. │
│ The EP that followed, Hummer, was a stunning collection of songs │
│ where Andrew allowed his compositions and increased vocal │
│ assuredness to steal the spotlight from his layered production. │
│ Andrew has also collaborated on recordings with saxophonist │
│ George Cartwright (Curlew) and Jonathan Wolf │
│ (Why?/Anticon/Hymie's Basement), but Fog remains the primary │
│ vehicle for his creative output. │
│ │
│ Fog has embarked on several North American and European tours, │
│ converting the heathens with a full band- Martin Dosh (drums, │
│ electronics) Michael Lewis (bass, saxophones), Mark Erickson │
│ (piano, guitars), and Jeremy Ylvisaker (guitar and co-producer │
│ of the Fog records). Andrew's courageous musical vision has led │
│ their performances towards a powerful combination of │
│ interpretation and improvisation. │
│ The members of his band inform Broder's songwriting and palette, │
│ and make frequent appearances on 10th Avenue Freakout, Fog's │
│ latest and greatest on Lex Records. On 10th Avenue, Broder has │
│ expanded his sound further, with lyrics that have newfound depth │
│ and complexity, arrangements instead of sprawl and a greater │
│ sense of urgency, both poetic and political, than his previous │
│ work. │
│ │
│ Three songs, one with words, two instrumental, put out by the │
│ fine people at Alien Transistor (Home of the Notwist). Silk- │
│ screened covers by Wes Winship (artwork by Andrew Broder). │
│ Limited pressing │
│ │
│ 1 by Jeremy Ylvisaker, Andy Broder, Mike Lewis and Greg Lewis. │
│ 2 by Andy Broder │
│ 3 by Andy Broder and Tim Glenn │
│ │
│ Great. │
