Retro Synthetic! Another chance to listen to this previously unavailable interview with DJ and musician, Mark Archer, Altern 8.The duo, known for their signature fluorescent yellow dust masks and green boiler suits, released a series of hugely influential  techno records before achieving massive chart success with Altern 8.It was great to speak to the man behind the mask about the early rave scene, playing Top Of The Pops and how he came up with their distinctive look.Actually, this interview was recorded back in 2021, a time where everyone was wearing masks! Top one, nice one, get sorted!
