This is from 2007, so quite old, but just so good that I had to share. It's a very long and extremely well-written piece with some amazingly honest replies from Simon and Benji. Well worth the effort.

quote:

And so how did you and Simon actually meet? Umm, let's see, don't know if I should go into this in an interview, but, well ok, I was a pot dealer, just something about my electronic music making (laughs) and I was living in Bristol and a friend rang me up who was dating him at the time. He lived outside Bristol, in the countryside, and I got this call saying can you sell some pot to Simon, cause he's out of hash and I was more than willing to oblige. So that's how I met Si and at the time I was just sort of getting the hang of making electronic stuff...

quote:

You either are a musician or you're not. You can't decide to do it out of any sort of vanity because it won't work. Well, it does in the trance scene, but it all sounds rubbish.

Hehe

I actually had to re-read that bit three times. The way it's worded makes it sound like Posford was dating a male, yet in every interview I've ever read with him, he has declared his undying love for poon-tang.

but someone singing about \"playing the game\" or something is really not for me

Reference to Lost Tribe - Gamemaster

Probably not, more of a reference to that shitty Infected Mushroom track where there's a vocal line, "I am playing the game" or something.
