Meet for drinks with The Dees
I met up with The Dees fellas last night in Borough Market. We’re planning to record a new EP in Feb 2014 with Niall Acott (NJA Audio). Looking forward to it, but wondering what drums I will use.
Music

Great recording studio in Maidstone – NJA.me.uk – Niall Acott
Niall Acott’s studio in Maidstone – NJA.me.uk – Great for all kinds of music and production projects. Niall can do “in studio” or “OB”, whatever you need. Just this last weekend we did some work at NJA.me.uk – Electric Drums, sequencing, accoustic & electric guitars, vox and keybdoards. Great.

Trip to Berlin – to see Foo Fighters
Just had a short jaunt to Berlin to see The Foo Fighters, with Andy & Ian. Andy did not bring a jacket, and got sick,… even though he repeatedly stressed that “you don’t get ill from being cold”. He did.
Slo-Mo in Music Week – live gig review
Band briefly renamed to Borissey Mould
For a short while in 1997, we were known as “Borissey Mould“. This was directly after we had found that there were too many bands called “FLUX” playing, in LONDON.
FLUX – Gig at the PowerHaus, London – July 1997
Another very sparcely attended gig. At the relatively new PowerHaus in Finsbury Park. The sound was AWFUL. They should have kept the PowerHaus on Liverpool Road in N1!!
FLUX – Gig at The Orange (W14), London – June 1997
FLUX gigs at Rock Garden, Royal Standard, The Orange – May 1997
Flux Deluxe – Recorded in Angel Studios, London – September 1996
We had the privilege of recording a whole album with Niall Acott at Angel Studios. All Live, no clicks, and just a smidgen of me screaming (unknowingly) whilst recording my drum parts. Recorded in 2 days – 17th & 18th September. Mixed and produced by the fantastic Niall Acott over the following weeks.
