Moby’s a big fan apparently. And Björk. Sigue Sigue Sputnik, whose second album I was supposed to produce. It would have been a perfect match. I really liked what they were doing and it would have been a great album. You’ve got Spacemen 3, Spiritualized . . The Panasonic guys in Finland – we did a record together as VVV. They idolize Suicide the way I might have idolized Elvis. Totally Wired (Fin):Rip It Up 6/10/10 4:49 PM Page 40 GERALD CASALE Devo, bassist/singer In the beginning . . I was at Kent State, studying Fine Arts and English, a double major.
But what I really liked was those very low oscillations. And I’ve driven people nuts, because I couldn’t sleep without that on at night. It would send me to sleep, which I don’t think is a mystery – it’s that broad frequency thing of the mechanical hum, like the heater in a car, or a fridge, that induces sleepiness. Those tracks with Holger and Jaki were cult dance-floor hits in New York. There was this underground post-disco scene, people like Larry Levan, Arthur Baker and François Kevorkian. I worked with Kevorkian in 1983, on ‘Snakecharmer’, and he introduced me to the whole afterhours New York scene.
But the rest of it would be just wild. Which I would have continued, but I was too involved with the music. I was continually coming back for the music scene. But if I had just retired, I would have retired to the jungle. Was the natural life everything you thought it would be, or a bit tough? It’s both things. That’s the trouble. Nature was totally level. Cool. Everything we know about nature in this society, it’s totally fake. The amount of animals we run into, it’s very rare – they’re scared of people.
