Kscope Podcast Episode 189: Richard Barbieri
Richard Barbieri, Synthesist famed for his work with Japan & Porcupine Tree, talks to us about the release of his new solo album ‘Hauntings’, his first since 2021.
A series of Lovecraftian soundscapes, inspired by recurring dreams of fin de siècle London, of nostalgia of things yet to pass, and the collective fear of the future. Richard talks about the creative process behind the album, his new relationship with Porcupine Tree, how he was understood by Japan’s Mick Karn and David Sylvian, some of the new gear he’s recently toyed with and why 1890 was such a big year
