John Frusciante: Bowie's music influenced Red Hot Chili Peppers 's new LP

By editorial board on December 3, 2022

"I listened to what David Bowie did in the production of Iggy Pop's The Idiot"

Flea said that when the Red Hot Chili Peppers found themselves in the studio playing with John Frusciante after more than ten years, they didn't do any songs of their own but only covers of other bands.

“John didn't want to pick up where we left off with Stadium Arcadium,” explained Anthony Kiedis, “We just wanted to start from scratch making music, with no expectations.

We played until we found each other, and at that point he started coming up with musical ideas that he had inside and had kept aside for ten years.

" The result was an explosion of studio creativity that resulted in two double albums released in just one year, Unlimited Love released last April and Return of the Dream Canteen released on October 14th.

I've been making electronic music for over ten years but I didn't want to push in that direction "he said," The roots of what I'm doing are to be found in Brian Eno's work with Roxy Music.

He used synths to alter the sound  live of the band, create atmosphere, dynamism and produce new and unexpected sounds in every moment.

" Brian Eno's avant-garde approach was not John Frusciante's only inspiration: “I listened to what David Bowie did in the production of Iggy Pop's The Idiot. The synthesizers support the song and the band but sometimes they take over and create an alienating effect.

It's like the electronic beat pushes the band's sound out of the real world, into a parallel dimension. "
