Revisiting Portishead

Been a busy day so quick post here. Anyway, i was one of the unfortunate many that didn't get to see Portishead last weekend at ATP in london. So i decided to drown my sorrows in their back catalogue, that is when i came upon an old video of band member and Producer Adrian Utley at his studio in Bristol.


The video consists of an interview from Sonicstate talking to Adrian about his (at the time) new album 3rd. What follows is an in depth discussion about the thought process, techniques and sounds that went into making "3rd".  A very interesting video for fans and producers alike and of course it contains some serious synth porn consisting of Vintage Arps, Moogs and custom Modular racks from Doepfer and Analogue systems.


And here's a vid of Cowboys from the event

Enjoy!

Mary Anne Hobbs - First new show TONIGHT!

Been hella busy for the past few months but Uni is out of the way til September so i'll be regularly updating the blog and with more content focused on music production and maybe some sounds/patches and all that type of business.

Anyway, a few months ago i posted about Mary Anne Hobbs forthcoming show on Xfm. Well that show starts tonight, yay!  I have been waiting a long time for this and i'm surely not the only one.
