DF n°70, Interview with ABSOLUTE BODY CONTROL, October 27th, 2008

This show was minimal synth-oriented with the kings of the genre, Absolute Body Control. We met them in Paris at a moment when they had just reformed. What is funny is that I think we had discovered the reverb function on the mixing table, so there are ridiculous echo effects on our voices at the beginning of the show.
