This month’s Electronic Sound cover star is Andrew Weatherall – pictured during the early days of his illustrious career – and we have an exclusive white vinyl seven-inch featuring two magnificently wonky tracks from his Woodleigh Research Facility project to accompany the issue. It’s hard to believe that it is almost four years since Weatherall died, robbing the electronic music world of one of its brightest, sharpest and most unique talents. Next week sees the release of his final recordings in the form of Woodleigh Research Facility’s ‘Phonox Nights’ album and we have spoken to his WRF partner Nina Walsh for our cover story, which is a celebration of Weatherall as an artist, a producer and a remixer. We are also reprinting his first interview with the music press, which he gave to Melody Maker just before the release of Primal Scream’s ‘Screamadelica’ in 1991, a record he masterminded following his pioneering remixes of tracks like ‘Loaded’ and ‘Higher Than The Sun’.
