Remote Viewer is a UK electronic outfit comprises of Craig Tattersall and Andrew Johnson (both ex-Hood and Famous Boyfriend). They make diligently processed melancholic pop which combines the aesthetics of early 90s miserablism and the technical astuteness of contemporary electronica.
Links to Peel[]
Peel seemed to have discovered Remote Viewer in 1999 and would play tracks from the group on his radio programmes, including a joint session they did with Kid 606 in May 2000. After 2000, Peel seemed to have lost interest in the group and never played any material from their 2002 album, 'Here I Go Again On My Own'.
