This month’s Electronic Sound cover star is sci-fi electronica legend and space boffin JEFF MILLS, whose many career highs include an acclaimed series of radio shows for NASA. From co-founding the fearsome Underground Resistance in Detroit in 1989 to beaming out epic transmissions via his long-running Axis label, Mills has spent decades crafting his singular vision of electronic music, taking in alien soundscapes, cosmic operas, symphonic collaborations and more. As well as delving into his huge back catalogue, our interview with this sonic adventurer and edgy futurist covers subjects such as Marvel comics, 1920s movies, black holes, technology, telepathy, and the similarities between musicians and astrophysicists. It’s a gripping read, as you’d expect from a man with one foot in tomorrow and the other somewhere near Alpha Centauri.

This is something special. With an exciting new boxset in the shops any day now, the latest Electronic Sound cover stars are the magnificent Throbbing Gristle and we’re bundling the issue with a limited edition red vinyl seven-inch featuring two previously unreleased TG tracks, including one of the last two recordings the industrial pioneers ever made. We’re looking back over the story of Throbbing Gristle this issue, interviewing the surviving members of the band and others associated with TG. Genesis P-Orridge, Cosey Fanni Tutti, Chris Carter and Peter “Sleazy” Christopherson ripped up all the rules, both sonically and visually, both as a live act and a recording unit. They are widely recognised as the prime movers of industrial music, but their influence and impact stretches way beyond any particular genre. Their early gigs attracted everybody from acid-fried hippies and spotty anarcho-punks to oddball alt-funkateers and hot-wired electronics freaks. There has never been another group even remotely like Throbbing Gristle.

We’re investigating the visual art of John Foxx in this month’s Electronic Sound. While he is best known as the frontman of Ultravox and a revered solo musician in his own right, Foxx is also a highly distinctive visual artist. He has worked in photography, collage, graphic art and other media since the mid-1970s, and his extraordinary portfolio is detailed in a forthcoming book called ‘Electricity And Ghosts’. We’ve invited him to talk about some of his favourite pieces from the book, and the result is a fascinating glimpse into his artistic approach and the aesthetic principles he applies to both his imagery and his records. You could describe it as a sort of synthesis of John Foxx. We have a bumper selection of other great interviews elsewhere in this issue too, including Jeff Mills, John Grant, Suzanne Ciani, Orbital, Wolfgang Tillmans, Low End Activist, Keeley Forsyth and Chanel Beads. We also have a splendid new regular column called “The Best Of…”, which we think you’re going to really love. Our first volunteer is μ-Ziq man and Planet Mu label boss Mike Paradinas, who speaks about peaches, thigh-high socks and geek pies. As you do.
