A short break, and the screen behind the stage flickered with Steve D’Agostino’s brilliant adaptation of “Film One”, an early Foxx b-side. As the strangely animated images of Alex Proyas’s video sputtered and jerked in the night, Foxx’s band assembled on stage, coaxing the ancient circuitry gathered on the stage into life. The twin tape reels of a Revox began to slowly revolve and the opening beats of “Plaza” boomed into the vaulted space of The Roundhouse.

Recorded live at the Roundhouse in June 2010. Analogue Circuit: Live At The Roundhouse is a 3 disc set featuring the first ever live John Foxx DVD, plus a double album of the show, all in striking new artwork by designer Jonathan Barnbrook. Analogue Circuit brings to life one of the most lavish and ambitious projects of the artist’s 30 year career – filmed in June 2010 with multiple cameras at one of London’s biggest and most distinctive venues. Rich, powerful analogue synths; Robin Simon on guitar playing early Ultravox material; surreal VJ cut-ups and Barnbrook graphics; a film by I Robot director Alex Proyas, a brilliant opening Metamatic section; songs from the recent classic, Interplay; all of this in a unique, one-off show. Extras include a photo gallery, Jonathan Barnbrook’s films for ‘Interplay’ and an interview with Future Music just before the band went on stage.
