INTERPLAY/THE SHAPE OF THINGS

2014 release. Combined vinyl edition of John Foxx and Benge's 2011 albums Interplay (META 028CD/LP) and The Shape of Things (META 029CD/LP). Benge (Ben Edwards) is best known for his 2007 album Twenty Systems, which Brian Eno described as a brilliant contribution to the archaeology of electronic music. He and John Foxx craft their sound from analog synthesizers and drum machines, conjuring a moody atmosphere that balances pop with raw experimentalism. Exclusive Jonathan Barnbrook print.
