Some artists leave a legacy that stretches far beyond a great single or a number 1 album.

Artist Focus is a new series hosted by the extended Melodic Distraction family that deep dives into the life and times of the musicians that have defined the sound of modern music. From the stone cold classics to the unearthed gems and forgotten B-sides, our community tribute an hour of music by a single artist that has had a notable impact on their life.

This week, Joe Morris covers the sounds of Andrew Weatherall.

Artist Focus - Andrew Weatherall

Inspired by a visit to an A Love From Outer Space event in Brixton two weeks ago.

I wanted to capture the feel of the night and hopefully make a tune that, maybe, one day, would get played at ALFOS.

Andrew Weatherall Tribute Inspired in Qatar

Feed your Head Guest Mix: Sean Johnston

February 17 will mark the fifth anniversary of Andrew Weatherall’s tragic death. Three days before that, Material Music will release A Love from Outer Space, a compilation compiled and mixed by  Sean Johnston, who DJed and ran the A Love from Outer Space club night with Weatherall. It features 19 songs that capture the essence of the club night, many of them exclusive. I spoke to Sean about the new album, about London 88 Acid House madness, 122 BPM limits, all-time ALFOS anthems and DJing at ALFOS days after Weatherall’s passing. I hope you enjoy it. Line Noise comes to you with the support of Cupra.

Crystalizing this ethos into his productions, Joe has enjoyed a string of well received releases on a myriad of diverse record labels. It's an intoxicating cocktail that has seen him play around the world and back again; from smoke filled basements to festival stages and all points between.
