All India Radio is the new project for Martin Kennedy and Aidan Halloran, both ex-members of Pray TV, one of Australiaīs most critically acclaimed indie bands.
Pray TV released albums across the world beginning in the late 80īs with legendary Aussie labels Mr Spaceman and Au Go Go Records, through to Radioactive (U.S.A.), Semaphore (Germany), 1+2 Records (Japan),
Munster Records (Spain), Shock Records (Australia) and were acclaimed by international media including Melody Maker, CMJ,Alternative Press, Puncture, Gavin & Rolling Stone and more.
Although it is not really genre specific music, All India
Radioīs debut album The Inevitable is essentially experimental electronic music which probably owes more to the ambient strangeness of the U.Kīs KLF and Flying Saucer Attack than the electronic music of today. The ci-fi ambient themes of Pink Floyd and Tangerine Dream can also be heard in the music and the world music themes are touched upon with a collection of lo-fi Indian street recordings upon which the album is based. These were recorded in India by Aiden Halloran.
More information can be found on the bandīs website.
