in sheffield today and the sky is leaden and i’m very tired like a little cranky baby.
we’ve been out of email range for the last couple of days, thus my lack of journal entries. and now i’m in email range and the best that i can do is to say that the sheffield sky is leaden and that i’m tired.
it is not grim up north, but it does seem to be grey up north more often than not.
which is ok. it just forces people to stay inside where they can make interesting music. i mean, could heaven 17 and cabaret voltaire ever have come from barbados?
no, stephen mallinder and richard kirke (if my electro trivia is accurate) would’ve been surfing and cutting sugar cane and the world never would’ve heard ‘sensoria’. and the world without ‘sensoria’ would’ve been a much less interesting place.
why don’t electronic musicians use their own vocals anymore? remember the good old days of cabaret voltaire and nitzer ebb and meat beat manifesto and front 242 and daf and etc when electronic musicians sang on their own records?i think that electronic musicians should start singing on their own records. that is my little thought for the day. thank you.
