Musicians are often the worst judges of their own work, but that certainly can't be said of J Willgoose. The Public Service Broadcasting man is repeatedly bang on the money in the press release for A Wonderful Hope, the debut album from his new side project Late Night Final - so much so that it was very tempting simply to quote verbatim in the course of pulling together a review for Buzz.
"I made this whole album picturing a dance tent at 4am or a room late at night, full of people, movement and warmth and all the joy that that can bring" is a perfect comment on a record that was crafted in lockdown isolation using digital instrumentation but that celebrates the power of human contact and communality.
