about

Mark Radcliffe's UNE

The concept of UNE came about when Mark was looking for a new way to work following many years of writing the traditional way with an acoustic guitar. The flash of inspiration came when he was given a book called ‘Lost in Translation’ by Ella Frances Sanders. This listed and illustrated words from other languages for which there is no literal one-word translation into English. Examples are ‘Boketto’, a Japanese word that means ‘gazing vacantly into the distance without thinking about anything specific’ and ‘Iktsuarpok’ which in its native Inuit means ‘the act of repeatedly going outside to check if anyone is coming’.

Fascinated by the various definitions, Mark started to write lyrics with a selection of these words as the starting point. Drawing from the book he gave Paul a list of prospective UNE titles and told him what the meanings behind them were. He then gave him Ella’s illustrations and asked him to start composing songs without words. Initially they worked entirely separately before coming together to assemble the finished tracks. It was a new way of working for both of them but one which seemed to click immediately.

The result is their debut album ‘Lost’ which has been mixed and mastered by Jim Spencer who has worked with New Order, Johnny Marr, The Charlatans and Doves.

Building a New Town
by Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan

Here we have a bit of instrumental folktronica, the brainchild of Gordon Chapman-Fox. Various keyboards mix with crisp acoustic guitar, creating a semblance of wistful nostalgia. The music is delicate and languid, sometimes bordering on supernatural. My only complaint is that it’s an EP, I could stand a lot more of this in one sitting. Nickie Harte Kelly

This is very close to what I heard/felt everytime we visited the grandparents in Runcorn. Ominous dread. Bleak dystopia. Concrete and terraced houses. Plus the air smells! MonkeyMajiks
