SONIC TALK 101 - After last weeks Kaotic (geddit?) events - for which I'd like to thank all of you who bunked off work to join us live - we're going to do this again next week and possibly for every week btw, we head back to more ahem, sober territory. I'm joined by Rich Hilton from Chic and the Nile Rodgers Crib studio, Mark Tinley - sound artist and generally top bloke, and Dave Spiers from GForce Software, makers of fine musical instruments. As this is episode 101, we indulge our grumpier sides and talk about things that really annoy us in the studio world, but not before we marvel at Matt Mahaffey's amazing rendition of classic AC/DC track Back in Black on drums and Omnichord, then we discuss the recently delayed release of the Linn Drum II and the availability of Dave Smiths new Mopho desktop synthesizer. Then we discover who are panel would like to meet or work with alive or dead - which was one of the topics we didn't get around to last week (no surprise!).
