Next in my series on inspiring figures in electronic music, this time featuring musician, software developer, engineer and audiovisual artist @roberthenke.bsky.social, in the latest issue of Sound on Sound magazine
I bought this single in 1984 and not until today did I discover that some rare copies have writing by the band inside the sleeve when they were apparently bored at the @creationrecords.bsky.social office, and I opened up mine to find this note from William of the band @themarychain.bsky.social
@scannerdot.com Never knew I needed a cover of WORD UP. You are helping to heal the world with this. WORD UP INDEED, SIR! Now then how about a few pics of you in the codpiece? Or is that only on your patreon? music.youtube.com/watch?v=eSWN...

For me, two of the most dynamic 7" singles ever released, both in 1979, by Bristol's very own The Pop Group, who detonated the boundaries between punk, funk, dub, free jazz and political dissent. And still sounding amazing 47 years later!! 🔥
Ah, the things you find in a drawer at home. A Gescom related cassette, and the first ever µ-Ziq live show in London that I recorded at the time @mikeparadinas.bsky.social
Since a few folks have been writing about the band Pan(a)Sonic in the last days, I thought I'd share my story of helping produce their debut show in London back in 1994 scannerdot.com/the-debut-of...

The London and UK debut for Finnish label Sähkö Recordings was unforgettable. Would a 12 minute live set be long enough to blow your mind?

Now, this was £7.00 well spent, almost 30 years ago! I still remember people holding the speakers whilst Panasonic played as the frequencies were just so physical, and how many people left to smoke outside when Boards of Canada performed.
