Our New Zealand Music Month day #19 song is the quiet-it’s-Sunday song “Touchdown” from former Jean Paul Sartre Experience/ JPS Experience/ JPSE and Stereo Bus/ Stereobus member David Yetton.
Yetton has cleaned out his computer hard drive with a wry-titled cassette album called “Move to Trash (Bits, Pieces, Offcuts & Stuff)” released on Hamburg-based cassette label Thokei Tapes.
Yetton went on to form Stereobus/ The Stereo Bus after JPSE split. The songs on “Move to Trash” sound to be Stereobus/ The Stereo Bus era demos, out-takes, and ideas.
However some of them – like “Touchdown” here – also rekindle the sense of hushed melodic wonder of that very first EP by the Jean Paul Sartre Experience released on Flying Nun Records back in the mid 1980s.
