Thurston Moore

In this episode of Lost and Sound, I spoke with Thurston Moore, founder member of the iconic Sonic Youth, now living in London where he’s inspired by the city’s improv scene. I remember as a kid handing over my pocket cash for a copy of the band’s album Daydream Nation and being blown away by the way they played rock music, suddenly, it seemed there were no rules, and that appealed massively. His latest album, By The Fire is incendiary and was recorded just before lockdown. We spoke in late October and had a really good chat about the dimensions of sound, New York’s post punk scene, improvisation, his thoughts about the future of live performance and the uncannily accurate future predicted in The Simpsons, amongst other things. A true sonic architect, he was a real gentleman in conversation and I hope you enjoy listening.  Thurston Moore Lost And Sound music by E S OThis episode is sponsored by talentful.com And hosted by bearradio.org , home of English language podcasts from Berlin Support the show
