THE BLESSED MADONNA invites Arman to Hackney to dive into her fantastic repertoire. Referencing APHEX TWIN’S WINDOWLICKER, she describes her idea of the POWER OF CONVENTION: “Using convention shows people what world we’re in. Breaking convention shows people where the possibilities are.” INSIGHT comes naturally to THE BLESSED MADONNA; this duality of perspective she takes by not frowning upon, but instead BREAKING THROUGH convention applies beautifully to both the way she creates and the music which inspires her. A JOY to be in her presence, THE MADONNA makes Arman nearly fall out of his chair as she describes THE GREATEST NIGHT OF HER LIFE. It’s at Berghain where she’s been playing for so long that her JEANS RIP clean through the back. WE LOVE THE BLESSED MADONNA for her contagious sense of humour, shared love of ‘FOLLOW ME’ and Amanda Lear, as well as every other detail that makes her, HER. With a farewell, Arman finally catches his breath and we immediately add all of her songs to our playlist to study up.
