BBC Radio 6 Music broadcast: 27th September 2019
Kick start your weekend with a special guest mix from Graham Massey. Every Friday we invite our favourite DJs to take charge of the 6 Music Decks and this week it's Graham's turn.
Graham is perhaps best known as a founding member of acid-house pioneers, 808 State, alongside Andrew Barker. The legendary outfit recently announced a new studio album, 'Transmission Suite', which arrives 17 years on from their last release, 2002's Outpost Transmission.
Since 'Outpost Transmission', Graham and Andrew have continued to play live and have just announced an appearance at Manchester's Warehouse Project, alongside Bicep on the 30th of November. However, it wasn’t until last year that the duo decided to reconvene with a view to working on a significant new body of material, with Graham saying of the release: “We’re trying to make a future for other people to immerse themselves in.....It feels a bit like an imaginary landscape. That’s always been a big part of 808 State, when you go back through the music: these kind of landscapes of futurism.”
