Disco Inferno – ‘Summer’s Last Sound/Love Stepping Out’ (Cheree, 1992)

“For all this talk of Summer and love, there’s a worm in Disco Inferno’s apple that never really ever goes away.”

Harold Budd – ‘The Pavilion Of Dreams’ (Obscure Records, 1978)

“I realized I had minimalized myself out of a career. It had taken 10 years to reduce my language to zero but I loved the process of seeing it occur and not knowing when the end would come.”

Mücha (Interview with Amanda Butterworth)

“If I connect genuinely with even a couple of people, that’s ace and really that’s something to focus on, rather than focus on who I’m not connecting with.”

The Durutti Column – ‘Without Mercy’ (Factory Records, 1984/Factory Benelux, 2018)

“But wait! A drum machine in a modern classical piece? Only on Factory Records. I’ve never, to this day, heard anything so wrong be so right. “

Heavenly Bodies – ‘Celestial’ (Third Mind Records/C’est La Mort, 1987)

“The ghost of early Dead Can Dance understandably lingers in the tribal percussion and heavily reverbed guitar work and Seaman’s voice is most definitely from the school of Lisa Gerrard, albeit via Alison Shaw.”

Spoonfed Hybrid – ‘Spoonfed Hybrid’ (Guernica, 1993)

“…an album that’s both more varied and sonically untethered than any of their previous incarnations, the noisiness of their previous groups consigned to the corner, allowing a vast space for a plethora of electronic and acoustic instruments to interact, meander and contort…”
