Ed Lopez-Reyes has launched PubliusEnigma.co.uk, a website focused on Pink Floyd’s post-1983 work, along with solo work from the band’s alumni.
He describes the project as an academic approach to understanding the music in the era that began with The Final Cut. “The idea is to provide a resource that spans Pink Floyd’s ‘David Gilmour era’, from the departure of Roger Waters through today,” he says.
“This period set the stage for the longest era in the band’s history and for each band member’s most prolific work outside the band itself.”
Lopez-Reyes was a contributor and editor of Martin Popoff’s 2018 book “Pink Floyd: Album by Album.” His writing’s been published on Floyd fan website Brain Damage UK, as well as right here on the “Floydian Slip” news feed.
The site includes new interviews with Floyd background vocalists The McBroom Sisters; Bjørn Riis, vocalist/guitarist for Norwegian band Airbag and publisher of Gimourish.com; Floyd saxophonist and rhythm guitar player Scott Page; and Floyd collaborator Jon Carin.
Lopez-Reyes has created a presence for the site on social media platforms as well, including Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram (@publiusenigmauk).
Publius Enigma is a donated Wolf & King Media project under the direction of Lopez-Reyes. The site features photography by Marie Lopez and artwork by Ahmed Emad Eldin, designer of the album cover for Pink Floyd’s The Endless River.
