Damon Albarn's first real answer to my first real question something about Blur deciding not to tour in support of 13 is a not-unpleasant but rather vague, "Yeah." Not an encouraging sign in an interview. At least he makes eye-contact. Then Albarn starts to talk. He gets up, moves across the room and pours himself a cup of coffee. With every sentence, he seems to brighten, like he's winding himself up. Damon Albarn: I think we're trying to design a new way of working. Kieran Grant: Uh. Um. It seems to be in keeping with the material. I don't know if "13" has any less of a live feel, but there seems to be more of an emphasis on the recording as part of the composition.

Anyone who heard Radio 4 's coverage of Damon Albarn 's visit to Mali would be forgiven for expecting this to be a combination of intricate rhythms, melodic Koras, resonant Belafons and a chorus of appalling squeaks, courtesy of Albarn 's melodica. Albarn 's stated aim in producing the album was "to get everyone into Malian music". This first radio outing was more likely to have had as significantly different outcome. But the radio show was recorded out in the field, so to speak, while

nadia@myvillage.co.uk E: nadia@myvillage.co.uk Damon Albarn - lead singer of Blur, bad boy of Brit pop. Damon Albarn's anti war message - 05/11/02 Local boy Damon Albarn has teamed up with Massive Attacks' Robert Del Naja (3D) in designing and financing a number of adverts that recently appeared in NME - aimed at raising awareness of opposition to any British involvement in a US led attack on Iraq. Albarn and 3-D are working with CND and the 'Stop The War' coalition, who are organising an awareness campaign at the potential perils of such a strike. Writing to fans on www.massiveattack.com , 3-D proclaimed their attempts a success. He wrote: "CND called to say the ads myself and Damon took out in the NME were responsible for over 18,000 extra signatures on the petition against the war on Iraq." Albarn writes to Tony Blair - 18/09/02 Damon Albarn, is one of many celebrities who have written an open letter to Downing Street urging the government not to back an American attack on the Middle East.

Well, a music-related film that's just outrageous, that goes through so many visual identities is Casino Royale. Unbelievable. Favourite actor? I'm a big Jim Carrey fan these days. Favourite actress? I suppose someone like Susan Sarandon is really cool. Any directors you'd like to work with?

Just when you thought Blur had decided to take a wee break, young Damon Albarn returns to the centre of the stage. This time, though, he's talking films and soundtracks - and babies. Return to tender: Derek O'Connor He's making another of his increasingly frequent visits to Dublin to help launch Ordinary Decent Criminal, writer Gerry Stembridge and director Thaddeus O'Sullivan's own unique take - and the third one committed to film - on the now thoroughly familiar life and times of Dublin crimelord Martin Cahill. The boy Albarn makes his solo movie scoring debut here, having already collaborated with Michael Nyman on bizarro cannibal black comedy Ravenous. "That was my apprenticeship," he reflects. "I learned a lot from Michael. I basically had a month in which to learn a lot of stuff. To do one on my own the next time round, I had to take in a lot." He credits Nyman with giving him the confidence to go it alone. "He gave me a realistic view of it, which is very important. I did a lot more of the music on Ravenous really that Michael did, but he was always there more as a teacher. I think he would agree."

Back home in Damon's London studio, the recordings take a few more spins. In line with their original, inherent diversity, they make nods to reggae, house, rock, ragga; and some stay just as they are. The bass-playing of Junior Dan emerges with a unifying authority which recalls his years with Augustus Pablo. Then the tapes return to Mali, for further contributions from the musicians there. 'My idea is to set up loads of dialogues between this music and other music that I love', says Damon. 'I'm sick of the cultural self-assurance you get in the West. I want to get everyone into Malian music.'"

80. TOM GIRLING & JASON COX • DAMON ALBARN'S 13 STUDIO TOM GIRLING JASON COX • damon albarn'S 13 STUDIO. Having decidedto construct a studio for their own use, damon albarn of Blur http://www.sospubs.co.uk/sos/aug99/articles/blur.htm

Having decided to construct a studio for their own use, Damon Albarn of Blur and his collaborators Tom Girling and Jason Cox chose to create an environment as unlike a typical commercial studio as possible. And then, as Sam Inglis discovers, they filled it with perhaps the most bizarre assortment of equipment ever collected together... "In our opinion, gear is built to be abused," remarks Tom Girling, surveying a stack of battered 1970s string machines piled in one corner. "Whenever any piece of equipment says 'It's for this', we don't use it for that," agrees Jason Cox. Both are long-standing friends and collaborators of Damon Albarn and his band Blur, with whom they have been working respectively five and 10 years - Tom as a programmer and engineer, and Jason as roadie, live sound person, guitar technician and engineer - and both clearly share Albarn's taste for sonic experimentation. For the last three years, the three of them have been setting up and developing the studio in which we're standing, 13, a process which seems to entail buying anything and everything which could possibly be used as a sound source or processor, and leaving it in a heap somewhere. The studio has been employed both in recent Blur recordings (most notably their latest album, which shares the same name) and in other projects such as Albarn's collaboration with celebrated minimalist composer Michael Nyman on the soundtrack to the film
