The Inventors of Aircraft is a South London based producer project. A name which might suggest multiple members, but which is in fact the sole invention of one person.

Bandoneon takes the singer's role and is surrounded by diverse acoustic instruments and a sonic wall of synths and samplers.
Bleeding Heart Narrative is from the UK and consists of (recording wise) Oliver Barrett - who also does the illustrations for the releases.
