What the label says:

Darren Hayman’s second full length solo album since dissolving independent legends and John Peel favourites Hefner.
‘Darren Hayman & The Secondary Modern’ is Darren Hayman’s second full length solo album since dissolving Hefner in 2002. During that time Hayman has also managed to release seven EPs, two singles and an acclaimed electronica album with his short-lived band The French, as well as releasing a double album of 43 unreleased Hefner songs.
‘Secondary Modern’ marks a long awaited return to the sparse folk pop sound of earlier Hefner recordings, and was recorded spontaneously in 12 days at Soup Studios in Shoreditch (also recently home to Television Personalities and Comet Gain). The studio lies underneath the Duke Of Uke shop and Darren made good use of ukuleles, banjos, mandolins and fiddles. Darren also made use of the open door policy of his new band Secondary Modern to include contributions from many of his friends. Guests on this album include seventies reclusive legend John Howard, avant brass man Terry Edwards, folktronica elder men Ellis Island Sound as well as members of bright new sparks Let’s Wrestle, The Wave Pictures and Fanfarlo.

About the humble CD:

The CD is essentially a small portable face mirror which has an extra feature of being able to play music (through a thing known as a CD player). These CD's are a modern invention hence them being all shiny and digital. They can hold about 80 minutes of music and apparently are indestructible as you can smear jam on them and they still play (not as nourishing as toast mind you but when you're hungry.....). They sound crystal clear and are tiny convenient things. They lack the charm and warmth of their old analogue counterparts but their portability, convenience and ease of being duplicated make them a perfect thing of a thing for most folks. Jewel cases are the worst thing ever though and they really need to stop.
