The Null Device

There was an interesting interview with Bernard Sumner on 3RRR this evening (on Bec Hornsby's programme). He talked about the early days of experimenting with an electronic sound, mentioning how New Order were inspired by the sound (though not the lyrics) of the old Giorgio Moroder records and how he was experimenting with building his own synths; about how the most recent album was written and recorded (apparently Crystal was originally programmed on a computer as a house/dance number); and about the upcoming film 24 Hour Party People, about Factory Records, which apparently is due out in the UK in April. He also mentioned that there is a film in the works about Ian Curtis, based on his widow's book Touching From A Distance, and that the band have more to do with this film.
