Preparations for releasing the album have moved into the next phase. We have more music than can fit on a double LP so we’re selecting and cutting, but don’t worry – whatever we leave out we’ll make available for downloading. We’ve started work on mastering and quotes have been coming in for pressing and printing so we’ll be making a decision shortly. We’ve also been making videos promoting the album – these photos show filming for the latest one, to be released very soon, featuring talented friend of the Hovercraft Mary Macbeth.

And finally here’s a snippet from the recently completed track Jantar Mantar which will definitely be included on the album. It takes its name and inspiration from the extraordinary early 18th century astronomical observatory at Jaipur, India.
