Episode 38 - Chris Maitland and Giancarlo Erra of Nosound

May 1st, 2013

Hello to you from all at Kscope.

This time, we concentrate on the new album from Nosound: Afterthoughts.

Nosound’s creative fulcrum Giancarlo Erra has been not only writing and arranging his best music so far: but has also been busy recruiting. Porcupine Tree fans will be interested to hear Chris Maitland on drums on this new Nosound album.

You’ll hear Billy Reeves's interviews with both: Chris talks us through his love of glam rock, how to make half-time grooves sound faster, and how to smuggle double bass-drums into the orchestra pit of London’s biggest west end musicals, and Giancarlo takes us on a journey to Rome and back and explains how to find beauty in sadness, and sadness in beauty.

PLUS! A preview from Bruce Soord (The Pineapple Thief) / Jonas Renkse (Katatonia)’s ‘Wisdom of Crowds’ album. (www.KscopeMusic.com/WisdomOfCrowds)

Episode 30 - Bruce Soord of The Pineapple Thief

September 4th, 2012

Hi, welcome back to Kscope the Post-progressive Podcast.

New from The Pineapple Thief - 'All The Wars' - their most expansive album to date. Bruce Soord is TPT's songwriter, guitarist and studio auteur so he's lived with this album a long time - from writing through the demo process to the sudden jump to Peter Gabriel's studio and orchestral additions in Prague.

Time for some reflection then with your genial host Billy Reeves, who caught up with Bruce as the band gear up for touring. As The Pineapple Thief get bigger and more ambitious with their music away from the cocoon of their own studio we wondered if this would bring a different set of challenges for the band; not a bit of it. This is a glorious record and TPT are bound for glory...
