We met Patrick
Codenys from the Belgian band FRONT 242 as they came to play in Toulouse at the famous
local venue called Le Bikini. We talked about the story of these pioneers of
the Electronic Body Music style, and Patrick told us a great deal of anecdotes.
In some ways, it is the second part of a longer show, since in the
previous radio programme, we had an interview with the dance company LA ZAMPA and Patrick Codenys
created some soundtracks for their performances. The end of the show is
missing, but you have the entire interview.
The photographs
you see below were taken by our friend and very talented photographer Erik
Damiano, during FRONT 242's concert.
