Radar: Martin "Youth" Glover - Killing Joke

I recently spoke with Martin Glover, AKA Youth — founding member and bassist of the legendary post-punk band Killing Joke, a pioneering producer, and one of the most influential sonic architects of the last four decades. Beyond his work with the band, he’s shaped the sound of artists across genres — from The Orb, The Verve, and Paul McCartney to Kate Bush, Crowded House, Gina Birch, and Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour — blending experimental, dub, and atmospheric elements into a signature production style. His career bridges punk, mysticism, and radical creativity, making him one of the most singular figures in modern music. We spoke about dimension-crossing experiences with Killing Joke, writing and production techniques, current work, and worldviews. Tune in. ICYDNK: Dylan Hundley is an artist and performer.
