Reeves Gabrels, songwriter, member of bands The Cure and Tin Machine and co-producer of 'Earthling' discusses how 'Earthling' was the first Bowie album to have recorded the bass, drums and some guitars onto an analogue tape machine and later uploaded into a computer where the sound could be manipulated. Watch the full interview to find out what the word 'obtainium', a term coined by Reeves and Mark Plati (also co-producer of 'Earthling') means.

About David Bowie: David Bowie redefined musical genres and the potential of live performance for generations of music lovers. Creating and discarding a variety of personae and restlessly challenging musical boundaries, Bowie released timeless albums including Space Oddity, Hunky Dory, The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust…, Aladdin Sane, Diamond Dogs, Young Americans, Station to Station, "Heroes,” Let's Dance, Heathen, The Next Day and many more. Blackstar, Bowie’s 28th and final studio album, was released on his 69th birthday, January 8, 2016. David Bowie died on January 10, 2016, two days after the release of Blackstar. His body of work, his influence on the worlds of music, art, fashion, film, theatre and beyond, and his legacy of innovation and reinvention will live forever. 2022 kicks off with Bowie at 75, a celebration of his 75th birthday with the Brilliant Adventure box set, the previously unreleased Toy, the 50th anniversary of Ziggy Stardust and a series of special events.
