Nick Cave on Leonard Cohen
'I discovered Leonard Cohen with Songs Of Love And Hate.
I listened to this record for hours in a friend’s house. I was very
young and I believe this was the first record that really had an effect
on me. In the past, I only listened to my brother’s records. I liked
what he liked, followed him like a sheep. Leonard Cohen was the first
one I discovered by myself. He is the symbol of my musical independence.
I remember these other guys that came to my friend’s house that thought
Songs of Love and Hate was too depressing. I’ve realized that this
‘depression’ theory was ridiculous.
“The sadness of Cohen was inspirer, it gave me a lot of energy. I always remember all this when someone says that my records are morbid or depressing'

The Can Project featuring Irmin Schmidt, Jaki Liebezeit, Malcolm Mooney and Thurston Moore Live In London 2017
Founding member Irmin Schmidt premieres an orchestral reinterpretation of classic Can material alongside new work with the London Symphony Orchestra, before an all-star band of former Can members and long-time admirers pay tribute to their pioneering music.
Assembling their music through improvisation and studio editing, Can’s writing process resembled collage. Tonight, Can founder Irmin Schmidt takes that approach to their entire oeuvre, conducting the world premiere of his piece An homage to Can, written with Gregor Schwellenbach, which weaves together quotations and abstractions of some of the band’s most renowned pieces.
After an extended interval screening of Can’s 1972 performance at Cologne Sporthalle, the second half of the show brings together a supergroup led by Thurston Moore (Sonic Youth), featuring ex-Can drummer Jaki Liebezeit, as well as Can’s first singer Malcolm Mooney, realising and reinterpreting the band’s music.
Laying the foundations of what came to be known as Krautrock, Can became one of the most influential avant-rock groups of all time, and echoes of their work is audible in everything from Joy Division, to Radiohead, to Kanye West. Can combined the deconstructed rock’n’roll of The Velvet Underground, the determined rhythmic propulsion of Sly & the Family Stone, and the appetite for studio experimentation of their former teacher Karlheinz Stockhausen to create a new kind of rock music – something avant-garde and groovy, both wildly experimental and utterly compelling.
The show will be preceded by a Q&A with Rob Young, author of a new book devoted to Can – one-part biography, one part memoir by Schmidt himself
