With Matthew Herbert

British electronic musician Matthew Herbert joins Tom Robinson for a chat about the essence, inspiration and motivation behind the music he produces.

British electronic musician Matthew Herbert joins Tom for a fascinating and insightful chat. They explore the essence, inspiration and motivation behind the music he produces.
Matthew has been releasing music since 1996 under multiple guises; he uses different names to differentiate between different styles of music, approach and sometimes for anonymity. In 1998 he released 'Around The House', an album of beats, sounds generated by everyday kitchen objects, and vocals. Throughout his career he's experimented with sampled sounds, and this has been a key element of his music making process. He's a well respected producer and has completed over 300 remixes.
His new album 'The Shakes' is released under the name Herbert, and is his first dance record for 9 years. He describes it as electronic music for the soul.
Huw Stephens from Radio 1 shares his personal tip from Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Introducing, as does one of the Introducing shows from around the UK.
At 11 o'clock Tom launches The After Hour, where he dusts off tracks from the outer reaches of his record collection.
