Gary Numan and Little Boots
麻豆社 6 Music celebrates the lineage of the synth-pop genre by bringing together genre pioneer Gary Numan and emergent electro pop sensation Little Boots.
In creating a unique collaboration between the artist who led the popularisation of electronic music and one of today's leading electro-pop torchbearers, 麻豆社 6 Music illustrates the lineage of the genre from the 1970s through to the present day.
Synth legend Gary Numan, who took electronic music overground in the UK with his number 1 single "Are 'Friends' Electric?", and emergent electronic pop sensation Little Boots join forces at the 麻豆社's Maida Vale studios for a special session of collaborations.
They each play their own material and then collaborate over each others songs, including "Are 'Friends' Electric?" and "Stuck On Repeat". They also work together to deliver a unique take on The Velvet Underground classic "Venus In Furs".
This programme is a different version to the one that aired on 11th December 2009.
