In episode seven of the new podcast from Electronic Sound magazine, founder Mark Roland has a cosy chat with Cabaret Voltaire founder Stephen Mallinder. The wide-ranging chat takes in Sheffield the music scene of the 1970s, the teenaged Mal, Chris Watson and Richard H. Kirk developing their avant garde process in a loft, and the carpeted splendour of the YMCA basement venue in London’s Tottenham Court Road in 1979.

It’s All About Vinyl is a podcast about records and the stories that cling to them. Each episode explores the history, culture and happy accidents behind recorded music, from spinning speeds and forgotten formats to music magazines, charts and the people who shaped how we listen.
It’s a chatty, curious look at vinyl and the analogue world around it: part music history, part trivia, part conversation. Whether you’re a serious collector, a casual listener, or someone who’s ever said “I’ve got that on vinyl”, this is a show about why records still matter – and why they always will.
