When Daniel Miller and Gareth Jones make music together as Sunroof,  they sit either side of a table, adjusting the dials of modular synths and they look like two veteran chess players locked into a very long, perhaps even decades long game. Yet instead of being in competition, it’s like they raise each other’s vibration: one making a sound, the other responding. Both men have changed the way we hear electronic music in the last 40 years. Miller founded Mute Records initially to release his single Warm Leatherette. He met Gareth when they worked on Depeche Mode’s Berlin-connected ‘80s records. The Depeche Mode records we all like. Gareth has produced songs we’ve all danced to many times: Erasure, Wire, Grizzly Bear, Clinic, Interpol. For decades, they’ve been getting together and making these modular improvisations and have finally gotten round to releasing some of the stuff and it’s really good. Paul caught up with the pair to talk about how they work, how they met and what they think. Sunroof’s new album, Electronic Music Improvisations Volume 2 – out now on limited edition white vinyl and digitally, via the Parallel Series of MuteLost and Sound is proudly sponsored by Audio-TechnicaPaul’s debut book, Coming To Berlin: Global Journeys Into An Electronic Music And Club Culture Capital is out now on Velocity Press.
