The Silverfox

25 Apr 2017

Synthesizer Heaven

Music, Performing Arts

On the phone from Brooklyn, NY, this week’s guest is iconic synth-pop artist Vince Clarke, keyboard player and songwriter for Depeche Mode, Yazoo and Erasure. Originally from Gillian’s old stomping ground – Essex, the pair share musical memories and discuss how the idea of not working in a factory inspired Vince to get started in music; his work with Alison Moyet (Yazoo) and Andy Bell (Erasure) and why a hit electronic pop single needs a good tune as much as the magic of the studio.  Along the way Gillian plays a selection of his songs: Just Can’t Get Enough, Situation, Don’t Go, Sometime, Love you to the Sky and listener’s choice Oh L’Amour, that showcase his central role in the rise and on-going popularity of synth-pop .
