Some of you may be interested to know that there is an excellent article on
Warp Records, with an interview of Rob Mitchell and Steve Beckett, in this
month's MT magazine.
Just to confirm their plans for next year, here is a cut from the article:
"Warp have set themselves a busy schedule for early '94. January will see the
release of the Aphex Twin triple LP - Selected Ambient Works II - and an album
and single from Detroit techno veteran Kenny Larkin, to be followed in February
by the Artificial Intelligence 2 album and an LP from Cabaret Voltaire's
Richard Kirk. Album releases are also planned from, among others, Black Dog,
B12, LFO and Nightmares On Wax.
In addition, Rob and Steve have set up a new video label with computer graphics
artist Phil Wolstenholme, who Warp aficionados will know has designed some of
the label's album covers in the past. The video label's first release, due
March/April, will be a video version of the Artificial Intelligence 2 album."
If you find this interesting, then I recommend you get hold of a copy of MT
to read the full article, which tells us a lot more about Warp.
Making the T,
Steve B.
