Max Dax and A.J. Samuels talk to Blaine L. Reininger | Electronic Beats<\/a>: “As a student of electronic music at San Francisco City College in the late seventies, Tuxedomoon\u2019s Blaine L. Reininger always had an affinity for synthesizers and sequencers. At the time (and place), the then novel electronic instruments were more geared towards experimentation than making pop songs\u2014a distinction for which Reininger, a classically trained violinist, had little use. From this healthy disregard Tuxedomoon\u2019s dark, humorous, and cinematic art rock was born, and with it a massively influential spirit of experimentation that continues to cast a long shadow over post-punk and electronic music today. In Athens, Max Dax and A.J. Samuels caught up with Reininger to find out more about Tuxedomoon\u2019s latest recordings and the pains of rearing the bastard child of pop and musique concrete.”<\/p>\n
