We were coming from a completely different place, which was saying "sound" is what you want to define it as, and you can shape it into music in whichever way you want.

Crackdown had Dave Ball playing on it. Flood worked on our next album, and Adrian Sherwood worked with us on Code.

This was in the sense that if Dada was reacting to the morality and aesthetics of pre-WWI, then we were very much a reaction to the pomposity of rock that existed within music at that time.

In that period, we had the Cold War mentality imbued through us - the Post-war [environment] and the Cold War. I think we were reflecting some of that. This was before the Wall collapsed, etc.

I think what we tried to do lyrically, vocally and musically was to capture a sound.

[Kino] worked really well as a song title, and to build into a lyric, and also how we embraced mulit-media at the time.

I think underneath it all [in the Big Funk] was a little bit of a Europeanness in it.
