"Tim Smith's music was such a strong influence, I found it very difficult writing music that didn’t just sound like crap Cardiacs. It took me about ten years really to figure out a way of having my own voice."

This week's musical discovery: the North Sea Radio Orchestra, which I found out about through the music of @craigfortnam.bsky.social who has solo work but is the NSRO's musical director. It's one of those "Why did it take me so long to learn about them?" moments.
