I enjoy listening to Mike talking about his music as much as his music itself

Mike could see what was unfolding. The golden era for musicians was over. I interviewed Mike's brother, Terry, and he came to the exact same conclusions. People don't see the investment given to music & film creation. Most sadly look for free downloads. We have amazing tech to create, and equally amazing tech to take.

Always interesting to hear Mike's interviews. He's not the kind of talkative guy, usually :-) , Thanks.

I ask myself : Why is the Musik today so shitty??? The Songs today have no Spirits or a Earworm Melodie. Ist's only Fastfoodmusik in the Mainstream- terrible

Funny, I have always thought this was the least M.O sounding album due to its samples.

Funny how he sold all his gear for a song (little money), and now there's a trend to master through analogue mixers back to tape and then back into what ever format is required. This is a super interview. Thanks.

Thanks for the full interview. I´ve only got a few parts on video, but not the whole version.

Humans are best written (archived, stored) as music. Mikes programs or “apps for the brain” are pretty good.

Please indicate in your heading when the interview took place - I think somewhere around 5.00 Mike says 2005 ...

The album as released in 2005 so it must be around then.

I think the Warner stuff gets more electronic from TB2 onwards and sounds like background music. This album has some nice things on Light, but Shade didn’t grab me. It’s like a load of demos and musically it’s stuff Mike could write in his sleep. Predictable.

Agreed, only 'Music of the spheres' has grabbed me, from his later stuff. Even return to Ommadawn was a bit of a let down. I think the problem for me, is that when he worked less with editing technology, (earlier albums), he had to blend the parts smoothly together, it all just flowed. Now, his instrumental parts seem to butt against each other, with sudden changes, as if just cut and pasted into place.

Nice interview, but I would have loved to hear the questions.

I get SO UPSET when all those record companies turned Tublar Bells down... buncha fools without vision.
@IfUfindthisURlost2 жыл бұрын
I always thought the same, however, recently I heard the original home demo that he took round and to be fair to those who turned it down, it is a VERY unpolished diamond.

Nice to hear him talk about his work! Has anyone ever found interviews where he discussed the popular songs such as Moonlight Shadow and To France? I'd be curous to hear how those came to be after work such as Tubular Bells.
