A really interesting interview with John Frusciante (guitarist for RHCP who recently re-joined the band). He talks about his own love for electronic music and he has a new album out which I may have to check out.

How John Frusciante balances a love of electro with his return to Red Hot Chili Peppers - Double J

The legendary artist reflects on his time in and out of one of the world's biggest rock bands
