When they met at a techno gig in the back alley of a Dublin restaurant a decade ago, Jamie and Bex Fox couldn’t have known what life would have in store for them. Ten years after that fateful encounter, the husband and wife duo are speaking from their home in Berlin, their daughter tucked up safely in bed, on the cusp of releasing their debut album as electronic duo Love Command0.

“When we first met, we were the people at the party who’d turn off the tunes that everyone else was listening to and put on Aphex Twin,” recalls Jamie, best known for co-fronting indie band Fight Like Apes. “We’d be having this deep conversation while everyone around us got annoyed. So it was meant to be.”
