Metamatic Forums Socialising The Green Room Special John Foxx "Robo Cast Radio" podcast & "inspired by" CD

Good title H but I think they've called it something else.

Are we all eccentric now? :rolleyes: :p

The title of the show/CD is -
"Here We Go - The Other Side Of Metal Beat"

This is a combined title from our very own Rob (Metamatic) and one of the artists on the show/CD, Gary Hunter.

More news coming soon.

Well the wait is nearly over!!
Release date is Monday 25th August 2008.

Robo Cast 26 - "Here we go - the other side of metal beat".
This show will feature original tracks from artists who has been inspired or influenced by the work of John Foxx. Plus, we have a couple of exclusive gems from John Foxx associates.

Also, in conjunction with the TOFFEETONES label, a very limited edition CD (just 100) has been produced featuring artists from the show as well as some tracks set aside exclusively for the CD. The CD will be released at the same time as the show on the 25th August 2008.

Thanks to Alex for the artwork

Excellent, excellent news! This is very exciting and special. I'll get something up about this on Quiet City if that's OK with you.

18 tracks - brilliant!

I wonder what John will make of it.....

No problem Alex, please spread the news

I have been involved in a small way with this project and have a track on the show (A Face I Knew) and on the CD (Stranger In A Room) which are 2 tracks heavily influenced by John's album "Metamatic".

The whole thing is a fantastic project and does promise to be something special. I have heard a preview of the show and it is fantastic with some brilliant JF inspired music and also audio pieces from artists talking about John's musical influence. The show is terrific and I believe the CD is going to be something well worth getting especially as it has exclusive tracks from Anne Clark and Louis Gordon this limited edition release could prove to be a very collectible item.

Some very hard work has gone in to this project to ensure the whole thing is a very enjoyable experience.

.... Roll on August 25th!

That IS a great cover!

Really looking forward to getting my hands on this special CD.

Fantastic cover design. It would make a nice stand alone picture in a frame just on it's own. So much to look at, with all vivid colours.

Alex, Matt & Ian - many, many thanks for this. Looking forward to hearing both the CD and the podcast!
