John Gosling (aka Mekon) the English big beat/industrial musician and
electronica producer, launches his new label Hua Hua (pronounced wah wah) with
an 11-track compilation album. A quick scan at some of the featured artists
showcases a line up of legends - eighties rap sensation Schooly D sitting
alongside Primal Scream mainstay Bobby Gillespie and John’s recently
departed punk hero Alan Vega - even Roxy Music’s saxophonist and founder
member Andy Mackay makes an appearance. And while John’s electronic alter
ego Mekon is always on hand to remix and arrange, he’s far from the only
producer behind the proverbial wheel. 

“It’s stuff I had lying around and now I am finding ways to get it
out of my system,” he says. “It’s all been brought to the
world with brilliant new artwork by Isabelle de Jour, who also features on
various tracks.”

Gosling is well known as a member of both Psychic TV and Coil (for the album
Transparent). Gosling founded the groups Zos Kia with John Balance and
Bass-o-Matic with William Orbit before recording as Mekon. He has also remixed
under the name Sugar J. And that’s before we get to the fact that he has
soundtracked some of the most forward-thinking fashion shows in the world -
crafting the soundscapes for Alexander McQueen shows since the show Dante in
1996. Firstly working hand in hand with the late great Lee
“Alexander” McQueen, then with his successor Sarah Burton. In the
mid-to-late-nineties he was a core member of the group Agent Provocateur along
with Matthew Ashman (originally of Bow Wow Wow), Dan Peppe, Danny Saber (of
Black Grape) and Cleo Torez. He has also worked with artists such as Roxanne
Shanté ('Yes Yes Y'All'), Marc Almond ('Delirious'), and Afrika Bambaataa.
His third album “Something Came Up” featured artwork by Alexander
McQueen.

John is as passionate about Suicide and Alan Vega and what he describes as
“the new stuff”. Besides, he says, “that’s how people
listen to music now. I think kids – my kids anyway – listen right
across the board. People don’t see genres anymore. So it’s my
definition of good music.” It’s safe to say that this is very much
Volume 1. “Yes, it doesn’t cover everything and Volume 2 will be
completely different.”
