This interview was originally put online in 2001. We republish it here to coincide with the re-release of Séance at Hobbs Lane by the Ghostbox label.

The BBC Radiophonics Workshop filtered by noise-mechanics Suicide or Throbbing Gristle. A toy merry go round stuck in a vaccuum cleaner. A string quartet in the engine room of a victorian submarine. It's difficult to pin down the sound created by Glasgow-based Drew Mulholland, aka Mount Vernon Arts Lab, but it's certainly fun trying.Created using a range of analogue electronic and traditional instruments, his music and soundscapes are evocative, inventive, absorbing and engaging.

The new album, Seance at Hobbs Lane, alternates cthonic atmospheres, fierce ryhthms and delicate melodies inspired by secret landscapes, hidden architecture and old British science fiction films.
