Steve Reich and Matty Healy in conversation

As part of The 1975’s takeover of The Face, we’ve released a series of podcasts featuring frontman Matty Healy in conversation with his musical heroes. Steve Reich is one of the most renowned composers in contemporary music. The 83-year-old American’s endless curiosity had led to thrilling experiments and musical breakthroughs. In this podcast, Reich and Healy discuss being inspired by the sound of the city, the “amazing wizardry” of Aphex Twin and the innovations of Reich contemporaries and fellow-travellers Terry Riley and Philip Glass. Want to hear more of these? We also have podcasts featuring Matty talking to Brian Eno, Stevie Nicks, Mike Kinsella, Conor Oberst and Kim Gordon. You can read the full transcripts at TheFace.com.
