Collette,Ned & Wirewalker Networking In Purgatory CD

2014 release, the third album from the Australian rockers. Ned Collette & Wirewalker have been carving their name deep into the musical landscape of Australia over the course of two albums and NETWORKING IN PURGATORY is the most sumptuous and accomplished yet. Co-produced by Collette and his Wirewalker partner Joe Talia, it's natural full-bodied sounds befit the easy stride that Collette and his band have hit. Originally from Melbourne, Ned has resided in Berlin for the last four years, and this album was recorded in both cities. Fittingly, the album cover is a photo taken of Berlin from a plane as Ned returned home to finish the record, and sums up the outsider to Ned's music. But there's beauty born out of dis-placement, as we all know. Despite the album's own clearly distinct voice, it still manages to evoke suggestions of Pink Floyd, Kevin Ayers, Brian Eno, Kraftwerk and even Joni Mitchell or Paul Giovanni.
