Nobody makes a record like that for the money - how Gang of Four made - I went down a bit of a rabbit hole after listening to some of their tracks last night, went and listened to loads of old bands I used to listen to, lots of stuff that really reminds me of big city life, specifically UK cities like London, but I suppose also cities from up north too. It was fun but I was left feeling sort of down, I feel like that music no longer describes a future I want to be a part of. Perhaps that was the point of the music in the first place. The thing that worries me is that maybe the next 'thing' is something that isn‘t music. Maybe I‘m just looking for a new sound. www.theguardian.com #
