Here he is talking about his live rig. What is so special about Alessandro is that he uses mad low-fi stuff like a 4-track cassette machine on a stadium tour! How cool is that?


(sorry about any ads on this video - youtube is so very annoying these days)

He's got a really great new album on double vinyl - I'm really enjoying it. Here

Forbidden House


I was watching Forbidden Planet again the other day on bluray. The design on that film is amazing, it is so beautiful! Morbius has a house which looks like it was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1950 (obvs.) and its on the planet Altair IV. Its a bit like how I feel sometimes. Here is a walkthrough that someone made, along with some electronic tonalities by L&BB:
