Simon Flower live at Fu, 21 Jan 2007, Auckland, New Zealand

February 11th, 2007

Simon FlowerWell it’s been nearly a year so time for another live set innit.

This was recorded at Fu bar (fu.co.nz) at an Innersound gig (innersound.co.nz), which was nice because Fu and the Innersound boys and me go waaaay back bro…

Anyhoo, well compared to the ‘live at minim’ set (also kindly hosted by the good peeps at psurkit) this is most definitely a club set. It also includes some very fresh material - thrice as nice, late night, send in the clowns, beat street, distance learning and meeting the minutes were all made in a rather productive post-holiday/batteries recharged splurge in the 2 weeks preceding the gig.

Normally I stew on tracks for ages, ditch them, come back to them, ditch them again, have a bit more of a stew and then maaaaaybe get around to recording them – but I decided here to post this set with the new, and as yet un-stewed/ditched/re-ditched/re-stewed tracks.

Hope you enjoy it!

Speakeasy 0X7 - Current Critical

November 21st, 2006

Close to the wire, deep in the struggle to survive ‘ will this reveal a dimension to life that exposes our deepest culture . Turnstyle & Suln decode the static to discover a space, a slimmer in the hash.

Seeking solitude and warmth in the cold murk, the indifferent struggle. We track beacons for immersion. Here between the light of a distant war we breath. Admiring this ‘ this message in the music, this common climate?

The future belongs to us.

July 15th, 2006

Time wears us out, this is the situation: either they destroy us, or we destroy them.

Against the wall, trapped with no resolution. Will the system begin to collapse? Is the only route available all out war? Is it a trick or will Love give us strength?
