WE FORFEIT (Mix 26) :: Radio Relativa #9 — Interview with Cignol

 

WE FORFEIT (Mix 26) :: Radio Relativa #9 — Interview with Cignol


Cignol has been on the WE FORFEIT radar, as well as many other folks, for quite some time now. The Ireland based artist has been consistently delivering superb music, from acid tinged techno, braindance infused electronica to sky gazing electro. Chris and Robbie managed to track Paul Cignol down for a chat.

Braindance infused electronica to sky gazing electro

The WE FORFEIT lads have their beady eyes on many things. Cinnamon rolls. Loose change. Decent priced white wine. Their ears are tuned to something altogether better.

Cignol has been on the WE FORFEIT radar, as well as many other folks, for quite some time now. The Ireland based artist has been consistently delivering superb music, from acid tinged techno, braindance infused electronica to sky gazing electro. Chris and Robbie managed to track Paul Cignol down for a chat. From his first influences in electronic music right up to his most recent works, all is laid bare in this tell-all interview that’s worthy of the very best of what The News of the World would have to offer. Sit back, relax and enjoy two hours of insight and music from a superb musician.
