(Richard Sharpe)
Lovely to chat to Richard Sharpe (on and off air) about Zenessex and his time as Synthesist for alternative dance music act, THE SHAMEN. A really interesting look into the music industry, dance music and Richard’s work as a multi-media designer, including fashion design, music and holography.
What did we talk about off air? Analogue tape machines, studios, Alison Moyet and HYPER HYPER.
