Marconi Union's Drummerless Grooves: The Echoes Interview
We hear from a true 21st century band when we talk to Marconi Union. The British electronic trio has a new album called Signals that finds them tapping a more rhythmic, drum-driven sound, even though there are no drums. They talk about influences from 60s psychedelia, “but not the prissy stuff” and 70s German rock, and try to hide the mystery of Ilex. Signals was the November Echoes CD of the Month. Tune in Marconi Union on Echoes.
