[@RobRohm]

Now that would be a fun time at the DM Baar with Gareth, let me know and I'll try to get over there as well :)

[@Chevytravelleruk]

Hahaha.. Gareth is one of the sweetest and most inspirational people on the planet.. I almost feel bad for dissing the AI picture now ;) ..but that's my grumpy nature

[@nobordersnoflags9905]

I had the pleasure to work with Gareth on a project one time and he is such an inspiring, creative person. A lovely man.

[@VaughnGeorge]

Couldn't agree more! VG :-)

[@ToreHansen]

Cool to see you guys together again, greetings from Norway🇳🇴🎹🎶

[@VaughnGeorge]

Hello to you Tore and thank you! VG :-)

[@jayyenehc1039]

Vaughn , ask Mr Jones if Depeche will release their past work in Dolby Atmos as most bands are doing that including U2 ! I assume if they are he would be alerted about it !

[@VaughnGeorge]

Good question but I doubt that Gareth would know the answer to this question. VG :-)

[@carlosmodegahan4455]

Looking forward to Electrogenetic II and the DM trilogy DJ set!!!

[@sherriebell1501]

Hi Vaughn. So nice to see the two of you together again. Gareth' s suggestion of a tour together one day......how fantastic would that be! Interesting conversation from his side about AI. Love your friendly convo with him about the subject. You both are complete gentlemen! My best to you both. Always enjoy!

[@VaughnGeorge]

Thank you for your kind words and I am glad you enjoyed the video! VG:-)

[@allegrajane7205]

Hi Vaughn! So lovely to hear what's new with Gareth. He's a cool dude. 😎 I really hope that the Reconstruction Time Again show comes to fruition.

[@VaughnGeorge]

I am sure we will be able to make this happen! VG :-)

[@desparateicon9342]

Brilliant! Looks like you and Gareth are planning another project. If you do another gig at Strongroom, I will be there on time 😅

[@gloraditch6915]

Great interview, thanks again for sharing. I'm wondering if you could make this a re-ocurring theme with interviews of various artists/producers and get their input on A.I. and the music industry.

[@syracusemusic1539]

👍 awesome dude

[@VaughnGeorge]

Thanks brother ! 😁

Hi Vaughn, Adam here (new handle) first off great video, thanks for sharing this interview with us. Always great to see Gareth and that he is healthy. One thing though I will disagree with his spiritual take on AI with the whole "acceptance" thing. While it probably does reduce internal anger and anxiety, "acceptance" leads to complacency and change doesn't come about from complacency. Imagine if Israel just lied back and "accepted" the attacks (not to get political, but the first idea that came to mind). I believe in fighting the good fight, and while he does make a point that there is no getting rid of it, I still personally am more like you and believe in ranting about it. I feel those voices need to be heard otherwise the acceptance just becomes the only voice. To add, just because synthesizers were looked down upon in the 70s is not a fair argument, just because it was not true for that doesn't mean it is NOT true for AI. AI is getting into songwriting where synths really did not.

[@VaughnGeorge]

Hi Adam ! Thank you for your comment and I can see where you are coming from with your opinion, perfectly valid! VG :-)

[@ADUSLG]

@philippendletonmusic I know, I was using it only as an analogy to compare the logic

[@nobordersnoflags9905]

Crazy to bring genocidal Israel into this discussion.

[@autecheee]

Great interview…yet could you filter out the microphone ground-hum-noise background ?

[@VaughnGeorge]

@@autecheee yes I am very sorry about that ! The primary microphone failed and the backup mic that was connected to the camera had a picked up some really bad humming. I filtered off as much as I could but I guess it is still audible if you're using high quality speakers. A school boy error which I will not make again in future. VG 😎🎹

[@autecheee]

@ No apology needed. Great to hear from Gareth, looking forward to his releases and new Sunroof. You got to meet the Legendary JOHN FOXX!! I’d love to hear you interview John FOXX!! Or review the Cathedral Oceans performance.

[@Klaas-g3t]

Better get Bascombe and Hillier. Honestly, I'd be more interested in what these two have to say.

[@VaughnGeorge]

I've already interviewed Dave Bascombe. VG :-)

@@VaughnGeorge On the SonicTalk show on Nick Batt's SonicState channel, someone named Steve Hillier is often a guest. I wonder if he is related to Ben Hillier. The last name isn't that common. Maybe you can get in touch with Ben through Steve.
