WHY WE BLEEP 058: BOGDAN RACZYNSKI

 

Heyyy… it’s been a while, but Why We Bleep is back (thank you for your patience!) In this 58th episode, I had the pleasure of speaking to "IDM" 😬 legend: Bogdan Raczynski. Cited as a “massive inspiration” for Aphex Twin's album Drukqs (perhaps you are familiar), he’s responsible for one of my favourite 90's albums: Samurai Math Beats. We discuss the founding of the EM411 forum, keeping electronic music fun and playful, the pros & cons of hardware and translating studio music into live performance. Thanks m8s 👉
