Artists discuss the 13 records that shaped their lives

12. AirMusic for Museum

I like it when artists or bands do something with a limited set of parameters, it often sounds quite honest, as if they have thought ‘well this is the sort of music we would make if we were stuck on a desert island’ (a cool prospect as long as it is one of those islands that have a good recording studio on it, which I’m sure do exist). This album was commissioned by the Palais des Beaux-Arts de Lille, and was released on double clear vinyl. I really like the crossover of music and fine art. Good sound paintings are very hard to find.
