Thanks! That’s very nice to say. We actually used to play Backwater, the lead of which I played on my.... Pro One!

I'm giving it a thumbs-up for its goodness. Nice work!

Thanks LF!

Well, you caught us! We obviously wear our influences on our sleeve. This is the longest running project I’ve been involved in. We bought our first gear in 83. OMD was the template as it was just two of us and we were extreme fanboys. By the end of the year we had a bass, an SH101, a Korg Polysix and a DR110 drum machine all running into a Radio Shack mixer to a 10 watt guitar amp. No effects except for the spring reverb on the amp. After Junk Culture was released, while we liked the album, it didn’t have the same spark of the first four albums. One night in 84 during of our coffee and cigarillo sessions we determined to “preserve” that sound. For better or for worse, while other influences have made their way in (like Eno in that lyric,) we never really strayed from that “mission.” Poncey would be a good description of us at the time.
