Those Electrapod ChatsThat 'MK1' Chat | Before the Beautiful InsanityIn this special episode of the Electrasy Podcast, we crack open the vault and revisit the lost gems of our MK1 album—a collection of tracks that played a pivotal role in getting us signed to Universal Music. These raw, electric demos, produced by the brilliant Jon Sweet, were the sonic blueprint of our early identity—songs brimming with Britpop swagger and heart. Many were never officially released, and for years they existed only as echoes from our past. But while writing Calling All The Dreamers, we dusted them off, reclaimed them, and remembered what made them so special.
