It’s an ordinary Thursday evening\, which means it’ s time for Top of the Pops. Amidst a zeitgeist of punk and disco\, the sho w suddenly appears to be interrupted by a transmission from the future. A luminous synth riff echoes out\, a beat drives on and upsteps an otherworl dly figure – part robot\, part alien – to deliver an enigmatic lyric depic ting some kind of android existence in a dystopian future. It’s Gary Numan fronting Tubeway Army for their breakthrough hit ‘Are ‘Friends’ Electric? ’.\nOf the millions that are watching\, few would’ve recognised that this moment foreshadows the shape of music to come\, from synth-pop to industri al and alt-pop.\nFast-forward to January\, 2021. Numan’s latest single ‘In truder’ pulsates ominously as if it’s soundtracking an imminent threat. As austere synths loom like shadows and industrial beats are detonated\, the beguiling hook towers like a beacon in the darkness. It’s visionary and v enomous\, with a narrative that imagines the Earth growing angry at mankin d’s actions\, and more than willing to fight back. In the accompanying vid eo\, Numan looks even more out of time than he did back in 1979\, like an intergalactic refugee fighting for his own existence.\nThose two songs sho w how Numan has consistently fought against the grain to stick resolutely to his creative vision. In a career that spans over forty years\, the musi c evolves and the themes change. But fans remain fascinated by Numan for t he very fact that he’s so uncompromising.\nTickets: https://event.etix.com /ticket/online/performanceSale.do?performance_id=4385709&method=restoreTok en.

\\nOf the millions that are watching\ , few would’ve recognised that this moment foreshadows the shape of music to come\, from synth-pop to industrial and alt-pop.
\nFast-forward t o January\, 2021. Numan’s latest single ‘Intruder’ pulsates ominously as i f it’s soundtracking an imminent threat. As austere synths loom like shado ws and industrial beats are detonated\, the beguiling hook towers like a b eacon in the darkness. It’s visionary and venomous\, with a narrative that imagines the Earth growing angry at mankind’s actions\, and more than wil ling to fight back. In the accompanying video\, Numan looks even more out of time than he did back in 1979\, like an intergalactic refugee fighting for his own existence.
\nThose two songs show how Numan has consiste ntly fought against the grain to stick resolutely to his creative vision. In a career that spans over forty years\, the music evolves and the themes change. But fans remain fascinated by Numan for the very fact that he’s s o uncompromising.
