The Front 242 origin story is inspiring to us, also coming for a small country with a small electronic music community (Singapore)

[@Morrellionaire]

For sure! Loved the conversation and history!

[@bassfx1]

Cool to hear from a Front 242 fan in Singapore. Greetings from Germany!

[@EBMZEQUENZER]

My Beatles ! For Sure

[@billthon1099]

Thank you for adding F242 history. Big fan since first record - Wish they would do more music because no one is better at EBM

[@Krush00]

These guys are so inspirational. Thanks for the great interview!

[@johnunderwood3132]

I friggin love front 242. One of the best

[@ppowerman5000]

Whats with FRONT...Front242 and the others masters FrontLineAssembly. Masters at their craft ! ❤

[@MrJersey]

Watched the full interview. Really WELL DONE!
I am a huge fan of Front242 and have been to their concert in São Paulo taxol in the 90’s and it was Fantatsic! I live in Portland, OR USA nowadays and just noticed I missed their last tour in 2022…bummer! I hope they reconsider and come back for more concerts.
The interview was great, as I said, and loved hearing Front242 quickly mentioned my favorite band (Depeche Mode) and was hoping they would talk more abo it DM, as it was another band driving the genre, but more pop.
I wish you had mentioned Nitzer Ebb, which brings the same vibe.
Amazing video and interview! Made my day.

The have always been cyberpunk for me

[@hankscorpio8928]

Codneys saying he goes dark is interesting. To me their music was always about hope in the face of oppression.

[@TieUpMichelleMusic]

Gr8 interview. We are big fans of F242

[@jefftolva8945]

Great interview with Patrick!

[@Morrellionaire]

[@hankscorpio8928]

[@hankscorpio8928]

Boba Fett Head Hunter Video?

[@francoischicoine9351]

us do parts sisters of mercy interview to

[@francoischicoine9351]

[@ryanporter1819]

He said they are not musicians, I disagree.

[@hankscorpio8928]

They’re not. That’s why they are so good. They don’t fall into the usual scales modes and other highbrow conservatory educated folks out there. They design sounds and make songs.

[@xXSKAVENXx]

LEGENDS!

[@kellybrown7671]

Have been a Front 242 fan for 36 years...since age 16. At that time, it was them, Nitzer Ebb, Psychic TV, Ministry, Revolting Cocks, etc. By time the crap called Nine Inch Nails came around I had already bathed in the waters of great Industrial. So, NIN sucked to me!

EDM and electronica are NOT the same thing, so to say that Front 242 were the precursors to EDM is an aberration.
