This month’s Electronic Sound cover star is Jason Pierce, aka J Spaceman, the main man of cosmic kings Spiritualized. We have a fantastic seven-inch – dual speed and white vinyl – featuring tracks from the band’s extremely rare ‘Pure Phase Tones For DJs’ EP to accompany the magazine too. We’ve had Jason Pierce in our sights since the announcement of the Spaceman Reissue Program, which sees the re-release of VIP editions of Spiritualized’s first four albums, including ‘Pure Phase’ and ‘Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space’. Jason has always been a high quality interviewee and we found him in terrific form, happy to chat about whatever we threw at him and serving up a cracking Kraftwerk tale along the way.

Today, it’s a hotbed of documented paranormal activity, from drastic temperature fluctuations and light anomalies to unexplained voices and the foreboding presence of former inmates.
