With John Foxx

Mary Anne Hobbs commissions a 3 Minute Epiphany from electro artist and former Ultravox man John Foxx, who talks about music made by machines.

Mary Anne Hobbs helms 大象传媒 Radio 6 Music with a beautiful Weekend Breakfast blend of music, stories and iconic guests.

In '3 Minute Epiphany', Mary Anne asks an expert to answer the questions we most want to know about. This time around it is the turn of former Ultravox's John Foxx, who describes the perils and pleasures of making music with machines. Will electronic music take over and remove man from music altogether?

In addition to this and the normal playlist of new and classic tracks, Mary Anne continues her classical music education with another piece of blissful orchestral music.
