I saw a DM thread where this Twitch fella was trying to get someone to commit suicide. Really a vile person.

Matt is one of the most consistently visionary and interesting creative talents of my lifetime. Some of his albums are timeless and that manifests as having the appearance of being almost prophetic. In that regard, Mind Bomb stands out to me, lyrically speaking it is utterly modern. I am trapped in two minds about his body of work. On the one hand I wish there were a lot more people capable of producing that kind of sophisticated brainfood. On the other hand, if it were more commonplace, Matt's work might not stand out as being so exceptional. Thanks, uploader. Excellent interview.

Ever since I heard the single on the Some Bizarre compilation I bought when I was in England in 1985, I have felt a real connection to Matt that I can't even explain except to say that his music resonates with me beyond anything else I've ever heard. All of it. Thank you Matt!

*It's very interesting to know that TG were a major influence on the style of playing Johnny Marr used to play, along with the lyrical way employed by Morrissey in The Smiths*

I met c and c after a concert in San Francisco 1987- (we posed as a radio station interview). Also Cosey responded personally to my fan club mail, (asked where I could get “the need” on vinyl). Exotica was such a cool album for the time, 1988....and that b side “workout”, we put it to a cartoon for a video. Groundbreaking stuff!

The Stranglers once released an album called _Aural Sculpture._ I have long felt that "aural sculpture" was the single best description of music I have ever come across.

Love his description of Robert Rental’s music as “Soul Music.” It’s true. It’s very emotional and darkly gorgeous. “Double Heart” is one of my all-time favorite songs. Grateful to Twitch for putting out the Different Voices for You, Different Colours for Me: Demos 1980 LP.

The first The The 7” single and Matt Johnson’s “Burning Blue Flame” LP (both on 4AD) are a couple of my favorite overlooked Post-Punk gems. It’s great to hear him speak about that time and his influences, etc. It’s not surprising that he was inspired by “Private Plane”. His Gadgets band/project had a few excellent albums as well. “Giant” is my favorite track on Soul Mining and I often play it in DJ sets.

I remember finding a copy of The Bridge album in a second hand record shop back when I was a teenager. I'd vaguely heard of Robert Rental as this legendary but elusive electronic musician who had worked with Daniel Miller, so was keen to hear something he'd recorded. I really liked it, as it veered from the minimalist abrasiveness of Chrome or early Cabaret Voltaire to some really atmospheric moments.

The Bridge is a superb album , there was some really "off the wall" stuff around then , and was at the recording of "Live at West Runton " that Daniel mentions - sheer luck / right age , lived near there !!

The infected video (the whole thing) made my jaw drop when I was young. I will always return to it from time to time. Soul mining, Infected and Mind bomb was constantly playing in my car. By coincidence I found a new Matt (Maeson) that somehow reminded me of Matt from that period. Anyone else?
