As part of The 1975’s takeover of The Face, we’re releasing a series of podcasts featuring frontman Matty Healy in conversation with his musical heroes.

It’s hard to exaggerate the all-round cultural significance of Brian Eno. 

He’s a producer, conceptual artist and theorist who pioneered the ambient genre and the idea of generative music. In a five-decade career, this one-time member of Roxy Music and lifelong experimentalist has collaborated with multiple artists including David Bowie, Talking Heads, Devo and U2, helping them all expand their musical horizons.

He’s also a famously nice bloke. And, it turns out, he’s a big admirer of The 1975.

In this podcast, Healy and Eno express their admiration for each other’s work and dissect the concepts behind ambient music and abstract art, the exciting potential of gaming, the sly wit of Bowie, and the difficult task of making decent political music. 

Want to hear more of these? We also have podcasts featuring Matty talking to Stevie Nicks, Conor Oberst, Steve Reich, Mike Kinsella, Kim Gordon and Bobby Gillespie. Read the full transcripts on TheFace.com

Happy Halloween.  10/31/2020. A cover of "Cemetry Gates".  A song that made me fall in love with the Smiths.

What 2020 sunshine appears like through the retina scan of the talented artist, Sara Karakomi.  Thank you for sharing your brilliant art.
