Finlay Shakespeare
Manage episode 367168734 series 2396568
Finlay Shakespeare is that rare thing - equally both boffin and poet. A childhood obsession with his parents’ record collection, then teenage years spent building his own synthesizers led on to a series of works, from improvised home recordings to the lush 80s inspired synth pop of his latest album, Illusion + Memory. He speaks with Paul about the need to leave our comfort zones in order to make good music (or art) and how seemingly meaningless lyics later reveal their true meaning and, of course, that love of the 80s.
Finlay Shakespeare’s album Illusion + Memory is out nowon Alter.
