“I call it the Dev Touch,” Tim Burgess explains as to what Blood Orange‘s Dev Hynes brought to the table as co-producer of The Charlatans‘ 14th album, We Are Love. “It’s kind of like a moment of sparkle, a moment of chill where I think that Dev shines.”
We talked to Tim for the latest episode of the BV Interviews podcast, and in addition to working with Dev Hynes, topics of conversation included how the band went back to the famed Rockfield Studios in Wales for the first time since 1997’s Tellin’ Stories and the first time since original keyboardist Rob Collins died in a car crash during the making of the album, plus the return of so many ’90s bands this year, Tim’s pandemic-era Twitter Listening Parties, DJing a David Lynch tribute, five records Tim thinks everyone should own, and more.
