Ed from the Chemical Brothers talking about New Order/Bernard in the Irish Times.Quote:Bernard Summer from New Order, because he is such a funny man and so interesting, passionate and charming,” Simons says. “Musically, it was a really close collaboration. All the people we’ve worked with have really invested in what we’ve done together... A friendship emerged with Bernard and he is a very avuncular presence in our lives. We did Out of Control with him and subsequently produced a track for the Twenty Four Hour Party People film. We’re huge New Order fans and we still trawl YouTube at our age to watch old interviews or New Order playing strange backwater venues in the United State. We’re New Order obsessives, so to be in the studio with Bernard Sumner and him to be such a good bloke is very special for us.” Quote:Their initial meeting was memorable. “We lived in the basement of a house in Manchester that was historically an after-hours party venue,” Simons reveals.
“The people who has lived there in the ’80s had a big sound system. One evening we were all sitting around watching Blind Date or something and we heard a knock on the door. We opened the door and it was Bernard Sumner. He asked if there was a party on, which there wasn’t but we invited him in to watch Blind Date or whatever it was. He called us a bunch of Wurzels, which is a not-so-affectionate term for out-of-town students, and off he trotted. I’m glad that wasn’t our last meeting with the great man

Nice to know that I’m not alone in trawling YouTube for obscure interviews by the band.
Man, I love ‘Here To Stay’ and ‘Singularity’. Two of my absolute favourite post-Factory NO tracks.

Kind of New Order related. Bizarrely , old footage of Tony Wilson in last night’s Halloween special of Inside No.9 on BBC2. And also footage of I think the old Granada studios where New Order did their MIF gigs.
A genius episode from Pemberton and Sheersmith. I fell for the “ live “ episode’s “ transmission fault “ hook, line and
sinker at first and was about to turn it off and go to bed until I began to realise something was afoot when during the “ replacement “ clip of an older episode of the programme, A Quiet Night In, a ghostly figure appeared outside the window in a scene . I didn’t recall that being in the original airing of that episode. Confused? You’d have to watch last night’s Inside No.9 to work it out.

Interview On my radar: Mary Anne Hobbs’s cultural highlights https://www.theguardian.com/cult...s-frahm-daniel-day-lewis Ben Kelly is best known as the designer of the Haçienda nightclub in Manchester, [formerly] owned by New Order. One of the features of the club was its columns, painted with diagonal black and yellow stripes. Ben told me: “If you choose the right combination of materials, you can make them sing” and I think these columns have become Ben’s “chorus”. Thirty-six years later, he had a stunning exhibition of stark, bold columns made of mirrors, metals and plastics, each one uniquely shaped and vividly coloured. For me it’s an emblem of how we must embrace diversity if we’re going to hold this world up.

In new Charlie Brooker film Bandersnatch on Netflix, the computer game creator Rickman has a large Power, Corruption & Lies poster in his flat.The film is interactive though so it was entirely by chance and choice of path to take that i ended up at that scene. If I’d chosen one of the multiple other paths I might not have reached that scene. Confused? Yeah me too.

That’s pretty neat.
Was reading about Bandersnatch earlier and thought I’d give it a try at some point.
I’m never really sure about Black Mirror. Every episode I’ve tried (about 5 of them) has left me feeling underwhelmed.
Some really great ideas, but, somehow, the payoff never really seems worth it to me.
I’ll try the new one as it’s a really interesting idea.
Cheers for the heads up.

Cheers for the heads up. Yeah not all the stories are great.The early episodes like 15 Million Merits or The Entire History Of You when it used to be on Channel 4 some years back were on the whole better than what's been on it since it went to Netflix (all or most of the series including the early Channel 4 ones are now on that).The stories since it's been on there haven't quite hit the highs of the Channel 4 ones.

-1 That’s really cool. Nice to see the band get some recognition in big films. Also, it’s nice to see more obscure references rather than the obligatory Unknown Pleasures t-shirt or Blue Monday / BLT on the soundtrack.

TOTP performance of True Faith on BBC4 TOTP Hits of 1987 earlier tonight. Quite nice to see it in better quality than the now rather tired copy of what I’ve got used to over the years on my old VHS or YouTube.Was listening on headphones as I watched and Steve’s drums sounded rather good too.

Bizarre Love Triangle (12” Dub Version/I Don’t Care dub) on Erol Alkan’s New Year’s Eve show on 6 Music.Coincidentally I’d looked this track up and gave a spin just a day before as hadn’t listened to it in years. Alkan mixed in a track called Upstart by Miss Kiitin & The Hacker after, great bit of mixing.
