About this episode
Matt Black of Coldcut discusses the 20th anniversary of their album Sound Mirrors and various topics in music and technology.
Our guest on Line Noise this week is Matt Black, half of epochal British electronic music duo Coldcut alongside Jonathan More. The reason for our talk was the 20th anniversary edition of their fifth album, Sound Mirrors, which is being reissued on vinyl for Record Store Day. And we did talk about this; but we also went gloriously all over the shop, from Top of the Pops to AI; Coldcut’s working relationship to the role that musical genre plays; and I even asked about the possibility of a new Coldcut album some day. Line Noise comes to you with the support of Cupra. Photo by Hayley Louisa Brown.
