Premiere: Tim Burgess & Peter Gordon – ‘Like I Already Do’

Shot by Dan Tombs...

Tim Burgess and Peter Gordon were introduced recently, and immediately hit it off.

A renowned crate-digger, Tim Burgess was already familiar with Peter's work, a lengthy catalogue that cuts through various strands of the American underground.

The pair quickly began work on fresh material, with new collaborative album 'Same Language, Different Worlds' due to be released on September 2nd through O Genesis.

New cut 'Like I Already Do' nests in a minimalist framework, the simple but effective electronics recalling Arthur Russell in their scope, while those synth swerves are sheer Delia Derbyshire.

Tim's soft vocal is reminiscent of Alexis Taylor in its innocence, with the dubbed out production providing ample space to intone those looping lyrics.
