Hello Steve! First I'd like to say its
a pleasure to interview you, and thanx for
helping get electro nooze off to a roaring start! who stands out in your mind as interesting
artists in the electronic world today?
Those that immediately spring
to mind are boards of canada, aphex
twin, gimmik, beta band, stereolab, broadcast ....however most of the stuff I listen to is old.
How would you describe your style?
Instrumental, psychedelic using
melodies to lull you into a false sense
of security before we fuck with your
mind.
when/where/why did you get started?
We started in Bristol as myself and
toby coincedentally lived in a shared
house there for a while, we were both
playing around with some music,
myself electronic/synth stuff, toby
guitar/fourtrack, so we decided to do
some composing together, mix up our
influences........what came out was an
interesting cacophany. However all of
our tracks so far were done after we
both moved to london, we are
definitely not a bristol band we're a
north london band.
What kind of hardware/software do you use
to make you music?
atari, mac, analog synths, guitar,
secuencer, four track, what ever old
bits of machinery we find lying
around the place.
How does the The 1001 Revolutions fit into
your plans as an artist?
It's a nice little time capsule of the
last few years.
Whats your favorite track on 1001? why?
I like orangecoals, because when it
all comes together it makes the hairs
on the back of my neck stand on end.
How did worm and you hook up?
Just out of coincedence, even
though we are completely different from
everything on their label they could see
where we were coming from musically,
even though we are not 'electronica' we
try to get our sound to reach the same
cerebal places. We love all the stuff on
worm also.
Whats the most important thing for aspiring
pro artists to remember?
chords, melody, soul
Whats on your playlist right now?
Alexander Skip Spence-Oar
The The - Soul Mining
Prince -Dirty Mind
There is a strong current of funky grooves in
your music that makes for a new yet reflective
take on music today: where do you see future
electronix going?
I think it's going to merge more with
the organic, until there are no classes
of music apart from good or bad.
What does the future look like for
Fort Lauderdale?
We just want to keep putting out
thought provoking stuff
What do electro nooze readers need?
More alchohol
What do you prefer and why:
Hardware or software?
Hardware. It's more fun.
CDs or MP3s?
I am a total mp3 convert
minimal or noise?
abit of both?
www.iuma.com or www.mp3.com?
www.napster.com
altoids or tic-tacs?
tic tacs
Last words?
good luck with the nooze
