Team LG were Mr L and Little G, who met through a mutual friend who thought the pair would make interesting music between them. They didn't make any for a little while, but moved in together immediately.
In time they started sketching their ideas into a cheap sampler and a four-track. Their initial success made them vow to always work that way and through this process discovered their own unique, homespun little world of sound. Conjuring epic ramshackle tunes out of old casios, melodicas, violins, toys and anything else they found whilst routing around in local charity shops. Often these songs were made overnight - Little G would sing, play and frolic, then fall asleep while Mr L pressed buttons and bounced the parts around on the rickety equipment until daybreak - always finishing the new song in time to listen to it with hot coffee, fresh ears and a sleepy Little G.
Combining weightless beauty with heavy sentiment; heavenly hooks collide with assured percussive clonks, clicks and rattles. Like angels driving vintage tractors, ploughing the streets of London, leaving in their wake deep tracks of rich soil and heavy clay. The album tumbles blearily from early morning anticipation, afternoon snoozes and late night eeriness - tales of the city, stories of day to day and songs from the heart. The intense songs reflect 2 years of in-jokes, quarrels, joy and sorrows. All through their music there are odd pop numbers, moments of intimacy and weary frustration - but there is an undeniable underlying melancholy to these recordings.
Over time the pair grew apart, until one day they weren't on the same team any longer.
The pair have moved on and are now both busy with with their separate projects and happy in their own way. The creeking sampler and four track are keeping busy too!
