I see some nice box on top of one shelve: Magnolia Electric Co, an unknown (to me one) and David Thomas, and many CDs also of Pere Ubu elsewhere. Are they particularly important for you? On that shelf is the Magnolia Electric Company “Sojourner” box, Deathprod, then “Jewelled Antler Library” and David Thomas “Monster”. The…

Nigel Ayers – “You don’t have to learn anything to do art or music. You learn by doing them. They are the most natural things to do in the world”
I must admit it’s hard to avoid to ask “what the hell is this?” for most of the pictures you sent. But I’ll try. What the hell is this sort of robot made with (I suppose) effects? I was really fascinated by the ‘gadgets‘ on your website, especially “The Exterminator” and “Ideal Husband Ideal Wife”…
Darren McClure – “I don’t think noise and ambient are mutually exclusive genres at all. In fact, it’s that distortion and texture that accentuates the emotional aspects of the music for me.”
Crass, Napalm Death, Carcass, Godflesh… a lot of Earache and Southern Lord! Delicate, dreamy, minimal tunes like the ones you usually play in your albums. Or not?

Angèle David-Guillou – “Spending long evening drinking wine and listening to music is part of what friendship and life in general are about, for me”
It seems you like African Music: I’ve discovered it late in my musical life, but I think that sometimes we ‘western’ get to it when we’re fed up with 4/4 rhythms and generally ‘squared’ structures. Is it the same for you or you had the opportunity to grow up with non-western music already when…
John Guilor – “I honestly think the original Doctor Who theme is the best piece of music ever committed to tape”
I love doing this stuff, I have the impression of getting much more ‘close friend’ to the one I involve. Each time I get the pictures, I discover something I expected (The Beatles) and I didn’t (Les Claypool). So you’re a huge fan of the Fab Four, like sooooo many others in the world. I…
