I tired very quickly with the widget…and Josh K wouldn’t stop complaining about it…so it’s gone already! Instead have a read of this interview with the guys talking about the future of the music business and electronic music.

“what’s happening in the record industry right now, the self-destruction of it, and all the changes, both with the technology and the economy, maybe artists are going to be seen as bringing creative content that is not so much linked to record sales. And that’s what we’ve really felt. We’ve sold a lot of records in the past, but it seems that now the people that are interested in music or an artist are not — thanks to the internet and the different means of discovering music — so much focused on who’s on the charts or who’s on the radio or who’s on TV, but rather who makes something interesting or exciting, and how can I experience it, and how can I have access to it quite easily and fast.”
