Empty Quarter

Empty Quarter has been played on NTS in shows including Bokeh Versions, featured first on 22 April 2017. Songs played include Bullshit, Black Sage and Luscious Glory.

Youth (ex-Killing Joke) and Ben Watkins (Juno Reactor) first teamed up to record an album called The Empty Quarter (soon here) in 1983 as the official soundtrack from the play Street Captives by Jonathan Moore. For their second collaboration, 1986's Delirium, they adopted The Empty Quarter as their band name. Like their first album it's all instrumental, but with a greater focus on rhythms. The beats run from tribal to industrial to gothic funk a la Brilliant (unsurprisingly)…
