Aired 03-23-2014 on Sveriges Radio (Swedish station). Extensive interview with Garry (Gaz) Cobain discussing the past, present and future of FSOL, and how the groundbreaking album "Lifeforms" measures up 20 years later. Originally posted here: http://sverigesradio.se/sida/avsnitt/334069?programid=4432 Garry starts about 7 minutes in, in English, although the narrated bits throughout are in Swedish. The last 15 minutes contain an interview with another ambient icon, Robert Rich, as he talks about the history of his legendary Sleep Concerts. _________________________________ The following is a rough English translation of the show's description: The Future Sound of London ruled in dance programs on MTV in the nineties. Their intricate (låtbyggen) was backed mostly by the imaginative and hallucinatory videos. Experimentation was great - the band was the first to play live via ISDN connection (documented on disc ISDN) - and they were not afraid to pick out influences and rhythms. It was called ambient, but had perhaps not so much with Brian Eno and unadorned sound cloud to do. The Future Sound of London could be caressing kitschy, brutally hard and sweetly beautiful. Their music twisted and snaked and changed shape within the songs. They were short, visionary and courageous. Double album Lifeforms was arguably their absolute peak. When it came in the spring of 1994 was preceded by the underground hit to Papua New Guinea - which definitely had set psr's name on the map. With Lifeforms cemented their name and showed that they had more in the pipeline. In the last Electronically in P2 with Andreas Tilliander season takes Miriam Pemberton train to meet one half of the duo Future Sound of London - Gary "Gaz" Cobain . In a frank interview, this legend of what it is that makes Lifeforms measure up to this day, 20 years later. There will, as usual deconstruction. This time, we pick apart a song with Corridor . In the series, curious, we meet another legendary ambient composer: Robert Rich . He became known in the early eighties for his sleeping bag concerts, where he plays for a sleeping audience of seven to nine hours. Recently, he resumed this concept that has been dormant for many years. _________________________________ TRACK LISTING: 20:00 Andreas Tilliander - Electronically In P2 Vignette 20:01 The Future Sound Of London - Among Myselves 20:06 The Future Sound Of London - Eggshell 20:13 The Future Sound Of London - Stand A Little Less Between Me And The Sun 20:14 The Future Sound Of London - Bird Wings 20:15 The Future Sound Of London - No Man's Land 20:17 The Future Sound Of London - Lifeforms (Path 4) 20:21 The Future Sound Of London - Lifeforms (Path 7) 20:25 The Future Sound Of London - Lifeforms (Path 6) 20:28 The Future Sound Of London, Robert Fripp - Flak 20:33 Andreas Tilliander - Reactor Id 20:34 The Future Sound Of London - Translation 6: Requiem 20:39 The Future Sound Of London - Eyes Pop - Skin Explodes - Everybody Dead 20:41 The Future Sound Of London - Papua New Guinea 20:52 The Future Sound Of London - Lifeforms 20:58 The Future Sound Of London - Dead Skin Cells 21:05 The Future Sound Of London - Cascade 21:05 The Future Sound Of London - Cascade 21:10 The Future Sound Of London - Cascade 21:16 The Future Sound Of London - Globe 21:18 The Future Sound Of London - Ill Flower 21:20 The Future Sound Of London - We Have Explosive 21:23 The Future Sound Of London - Dead Cities 21:29 Andreas Tilliander - Best Right Now 21:30 Clay Wilson - E4 21:36 Andreas Tilliander - Miriam Deconstructing 21:42 Corridor - Path # 01 21:48 Andreas Tilliander - Curious On 21:50 Robert Rich - Nesting On Cliff Sides 21:53 Robert Rich - Morphology 21:57 Andreas Tilliander - Electronically In P2 Final Vignette http://sverigesradio.se/ http://www.fsoldigital.com/ https://www.facebook.com/pages/Future-Sound-of-London-FSOL/34897435627 Uploaded by NmeshTV.
