R.J. Preece: Is Sensoria a synthesis of your interest in sound, lyrics and visual?
Stephen Mallinder: That’s an interesting description of that. The video combined the two songs from Micro-Phonies, Do Right and Sensoria.
In many ways, it is a synthesis of those tracks, and also morphs lots of different ideas and visuals in the video itself.
Sensoria, in the collection of MoMA, New York. Directed by Peter Care. Music is a combination of the songs Do Right and Sensoria on Micro-Phonies (1984), produced by Flood and Cabaret Voltaire.
Stephen Mallinder: We were fortunate at that time we were working with Virgin, and with Flood, probably more well-known as Brian Eno’s engineer now and U2’s producer, etc. Even though we weren’t working in a strictly popular music area, which was great, we were lucky enough to work with people who were on the cusp of those sort of things. So Crackdown had Dave Ball playing on it. Flood worked on our next album, and Adrian Sherwood worked with us on Code. We also worked with Marshall Jefferson for Groovy, Laidback and Nasty. So we were lucky to work with some really great people.
