Madchester - The Sound of the North (part 5 of 8)
YouTube via mlucifersam.
Synth spotting starts at 1:48 with a live performance of 808 State's Cubik. Tons of Roland gear.
"Granada Television's 'Celebration: Madchester - The Sound of the North'
At the height of the so-called 'Madchester' scene or 'baggy' if you will, this captured everything in all its glory. For a start Northside featured in a major item. Footage shows the band in interview, rehearsal, live in concert and even at work (well, the one band member who worked); Central Station Design in their studio creating something out of a pane of glass and loads of ephemera; Happy Mondays in Amsterdam - including Derek Ryder soundchecking for his son!; also includes 808 State and MC Tunes; Celebration was a Granada Television arts strand and undoubtedly Anthony H Wilson (So It Goes, The Other Side of Midnight, Remote Control, Content) must have had some influence in the making of a programme featuring Northside from his own record label."
