About Me

Orientation = an ELECTRONIC GARAGE BAND.

Currently = a 4-piece trio formed in the recent past, or the late 1970s, or the early 1980s in Nottingham, Sheffield or Manchester. Or West Runton. Or not.

Primary intention = sonic experimentation within strict retrofuturist parameters: "Forward into the past!", etc.
Discipline = recorded in real time with no overdubs & minimal post-production or posthumous embellishment in The Analogue Domain.

Alternatively = "PURE PSYCHIC AUTOMATISM!"

Objective = "To spoil it for everybody else."
