Per meglio contestualizzare l'importanza del ritorno a Milano di questo artista poliedrico che tanto ha influenzato DJs e produttori attuali, LE CANNIBALE ha pensato di dare vita a una kermesse capace di celebrare a 360 gradi le origini e lo sviluppo delle sonorita' new wave , un genere musicale in cui l'Italia ha saputo recitare un ruolo da protagonista durante gli anni 80 e di cui NUMAN e' certamente uno dei fondatori. Vieni a presenziare, l'ennesima leggenda della musica underground alla corte dei cannibali. Continua a leggere Gary Numan [...]

I've been having quite the musical crush on Gary Numan lately. Such a bummer that he got tagged with one-hot-wonderdom, because he produced a really nice string of dystopian/robotic/androgynous, yet quite catchy, music. In fact, I'd say as much as anyone he elaborated on Bowie's Low -era innovations. And with some glammy sass too. He could've the biggest star in a Blade Runner world. Songblague has previously given Numan a little of his due , [...]

The first live performance of this year, in our daily "Live In Concert" series, comes from Synth Popper Gary Numan, fresh after disbanding his Tubeway Army, on tour for his first solo album the Pleasure Principle. Gary Numan (born Gary Anthony James Webb on 8 March 1958) is an English singer, composer, and musician, most widely known for his chart-topping 1979 hits "Are 'Friends' Electric?" (as Tubeway Army) and "Cars". His signature sound consisted of heavy synthesizer hooks fed through guitar effects pedals. Numan is considered a pioneer of commercial electronic music. [...]

The music veteran, innovator and pretty much Thomas Edison of gothic synth and new wave has burst forth with a new stunner, Dead Son Rising (Mortal Records). Gary Numan's career, spanning over 30+ years, has led him down some interesting roads and into some interesting personas, both of which slouched in the dark side. An innovator, he was the future before the future became the present. He is best known in the U.S. for the 1979 robotic-electronica hit "Cars" and among musicians for such unsettling gems as "Down In The Park." A time-forged original, Numan's icy-calm, [...]
It's gonna have to be electronic music for me forever. Well before the likes of Soft Cell and Depeche Mode began taking the souped-up sounds of synth-pop for an elevator ride to the penthouse of the pop charts in England (and eventually, the rest of the world), a 20-year-old named Gary Numan was experimenting with [...]
The list of heirs to the signature Gary Numan sound could go on for miles, but our UK veteran of small aircraft and synthesized guitars sounds as if he's hovered amidst the current electronic music scene, in a similar fashion to The Orb or Tangerine Dream, making appearances by passionate necessity or in a passing fancy. Dead Son Rising suggests that Numan is trying to stay vibrant in the world of music that he helped spawn, but he does so without borrowing from younger generations. Numan is still Numan, and it's a lovely darkness with its [...]

'Tis the season for industrial goth. This week, UK electronic pioneer Gary Numan celebrates the U.S. release of his 16th studio album, and his first in five years. Titled Dead Son Rising , the new LP sees Numan working with an assortment of atmospheres, crafted specifically from a slew of demos he's collected over the years. "The original ideas behind these songs are now barely visible," he explains. "In the last nine months, the album has grown into another animal, something more experimental and fluid. It's ended up being something I'm really very proud of." [...]

Now that I have a great turntable and pre-amp, I've been visiting the archives to see which albums and singles deserve to be re-recorded and re-posted. Obviously, the soundtrack to Urgh! A Music War was one of the first on the list. These new recordings sound light-years better than my last attempt, and I highly recommended you download them even if you have an older copy I posted. I've talked about Urgh! several times over, so I'll keep the intro brief. It's an amazing document of a time period in music, when the punk [...]

Filed under: News , New Music , Exclusive , RPM Ed Fielding Legendary New Wave pioneer Gary Numan may be most famous for his eerie, synth-driven auto anthem 'Cars' from 1979's 'The Pleasure Principle,' but he was famous in his native England before that. And since then, he has built a deep catalog that's continued to explore and push the boundaries of electronic and industrial music. Dave Grohl , [...]

Photo by Ed Fielding The music video for his Battles collaboration "My Machines" was kick ass and all, but what we really want to know is what Gary Numan has done with his own machines for his first release in five years, Dead Son Rising . With the CoS premiere of album track "Big Noise Transmission", it's clear the electro-pop and new-wave pioneer remains innovative even after 30+ years on the scene. In keeping with the industrial leanings of his recent works, "Big [...]

Tweet I've misplaced my leg-warmers. Normally this wouln't really bother me - quite the opposite - but I feel naked listening to Big Black Delta without them. The solo side-project of Los Angeles-based Mellowdrone's founding member, Jonathan Bates; BBD knocks out dark, retro electronica that suggests more rock bassists ought to take time off from their day-jobs. Having worked with M83 on a remix of Daft Punk 's "Fall" (from the TRON: Legacy OST), he's seen something of a meteoric [...]
