Geoff Barrow (Portishead) interview/battle!

Hey One Song Nation, we’re excited to announce a whole spate of new episodes coming your way starting October 15! We’ve got a new partner and a bunch of new songs to break down. But first, we’re opening the Patreon to share the full version of an instant classic: our contentious (but not really) interview with Geoff Barrow (Portishead, Beak>, Ex Machina) where we tried to answer the question: Does breaking down music ruin it? 

This feud began in the comments of our Pharcyde "Runnin'" episode where Barrow commented, “Why does everyone need to break everything down to weird maths?” Thus sparking a DM convo with LUXXURY which led to this, the debate of the century! (which is actually a very polite conversation by very nice men!) We also get into the hip-hop origins of Portishead, a few of Geoff’s wonderfully hot takes, and the process of composing music for film vs. a band.
