The sound of Manchester on a wet, dreary, overcast Sunday. Depressing but motivating in the sense of ‘I’ve gotta get the fuck out of there…..’
Mark Reeder’s 5.1 (Famous) Friends (interview)
“Global superstars they may be to the average person, but to me they are friends and I can’t thank them enough for the support they have given me on this album.”
Berlin/ Mancunian punk-trance pioneer Mark Reeder and co-producer Micha Adam are just about to release a 5.1 surround sound double CD/ DVD boxset comprising 41 of his remixes and videos, including tracks from the Pet Shop Boys, New Order spin-off Bad Lieutenant and Depeche Mode.
While the 5.1 surround sound DVD is likely to attract attention for its eclectic selection of remixes for upcoming talents including Spartak and Skrufff DJ Fidelity Kastrow it’s certain to attract the most attention for Reeder’s remix of Depeche Mode’s Sweetest Perfection which until now has never been commercially available.
Skrufff chatted to the veteran producer this week, to find out about his connections to the biggest bands he’s lent his talents to; Pet Shop Boys, Bad Lieutenant and Depeche Mode.
