In this episode you will hear the first part of the interview with the Australian/Icelandic producer and musician Ben Frost. In this episode, we talk with Ben about moving to Iceland and how he got started as a musician and producer. "Ben Frost is an Australian/Icelandic producer and musician whose solo work and work with School Of Emotional Engineering is characteristed by a persistant exploration of technology and sound, often expounding on darker, more symphonic textures; those concerning loss, alienation, and sound scapes. His work with experimental artists such as Lawrence English, Scanner and Ai Yamamoto goes hand in hand with his just as challenging but slightly more accessible work with School Of Emotional Engineering. More recently, following the release of their self-titled album in 2004, he relocated from Melbourne to Iceland to further pursue his muse. Later work is more orchestral in nature, though intention more focused. The as yet unreleased instrumental album Ben Frost - Theory Of Machines shows the majestic fury or heartbreaking gorgeousness he is capable of unleashing, often within the same song, has been heightened if anything, by his time in Iceland."
