- Our final interview features Daniel Miller, who we were lucky enough to interview at Mute HQ back in August 2016.
Here Daniel talks about the beginnings of the DIY movement in the UK, and discusses the night he met Robert in 1978, and how they toured together as Robert Rental & The Normal supporting the punk band Stuff Little Fingers on the Rough Trade tour in 1979, as well as three nights in Paris at Gibus Club.
Daniel and Robert kept in touch and remained friends until Robert's death in 2000.
Big thanks to Daniel and everyone at Mute for having us, and a special thank you to Bradley Hutchings for his sound editing on this one.

What a humble fella. Enjoy listen to him....always
I saw Daniel at A Kraftwerk gig and regret not talking to him and getting his autograph.A fascinating guy and a legend.
Always interesting ..D.Miller
These music era is the most interesting for me .
Omg what a treasure in itself! You saw an idol seeing his idols!
I remember finding a copy of The Bridge album in a second hand record shop back when I was a teenager. I'd vaguely heard of Robert Rental as this legendary but elusive electronic musician who had worked with Daniel Miller, so was keen to hear something he'd recorded. I really liked it, as it veered from the minimalist abrasiveness of Chrome or early Cabaret Voltaire to some really atmospheric moments.
The Bridge is a superb album , there was some really "off the wall" stuff around then , and was at the recording of "Live at West Runton " that Daniel mentions - sheer luck / right age , lived near there !!
Great story and sad at the same time Robert died to early .
Puts more in than he takes.
