During
lockdown
last
year,
J
Spaceman
would
walk
through
an
empty
‘Roman
London’
where
the
world
was
“full
of
birdsong
and
strangeness,”
trying
to
make
sense
of
all
the
music
playing
in
his
head
at
the
time.
The
mixers
and
mixes
of
his
new
record
weren’t
working
out
yet.
Spaceman
plays
16
different
instruments
on
‘Everything
Was
Beautiful’,
which
was
put
down
at
11
different
studios,
as
well
as
at
his
home.
He
also
employed
more
than
30
musicians
and
singers,
including
his
daughter
Poppy,
long-time
collaborator
and
friend
John
Coxon,
string
and
brass
sections,
choirs
and
finger
bells
and
chimes
from
the
Whitechapel
Bell
Foundry.
Eventually
the
mixes
got
there,
and
‘Everything
Was
Beautiful’
was
achieved.
The
result
is
some
of
the
most
‘live’
sounding
recordings
that
Spiritualized
have
released
since
the
‘Live
At
The
Albert
Hall’
record
of
1998,
around
the
time
of
‘Ladies
And
Gentlemen,
We
Are
Floating
In
Space’.
