Amended Metamatic pak

One of the things I picked up from Record Store Day last weekend was this special release of John Foxx’s first album Metamatic on white vinyl. I’ve had this album for ages but I couldn’t resist getting this version.

What a great way to look at all the John Foxx releases and also to work out what I’ve got and what I haven’t!

European Splendour
and Jori Hulkkonen

I’ve always liked the collaborations between John Foxx and Jori Hulkkonen and this is no exception. This time I bought the CD / 12″ bundle, which is really nice. I did take me a little while to get into the tracks, but having taken the time to listen to them properly I really like them now.

The sound is a signature

Posted by on in Listening

I’ve been a fan of John Foxx for a long time now, but listening to his latest album I started to realise that there is a real signature to his songs, to the progressions and sequencing of them. You could probably recognise them in other people’s music quite easily.

Not that it is a bad thing you understand. I like his music a lot and I think that the last two albums he’s done as John Foxx and the Maths have been excellent. In fact I’ve been playing tracks from them quite obsessively for a while now.

It just occurred to me when I was listening to Evergreen.
