Coming November on Important: “Limiited edition of 500 copies pressed at RTI and packaged in heavy duty jackets screen printed at Monoroid. Featuring Tony F Wilson (Knives ov Resistance), Neil Halstead (Slowdive/Mojave 3), & Sarah Peacock (Seefeel). Zurich began as a 1994 musical partnership between Neil Halstead then of Slowdive and Tony F Wilson. The two recorded a handful of tracks when Halstead was shortly to begin work on Slowdive’s final and most experimental album Pygmalion. Recorded at a time when the popularity of ambient techno was at its peak, these recordings are remarkably austere by comparison. Following the release of Pygmalion, Halstead would disband Slowdive and abandon sound experimentation to create more song-based material in Mojave 3. Shortly thereafter, Wilson began collaborating with producer/ engineer Joe Gray (Luger/Funkaholics/Precision Cuts) on more rhythm based, yet still atmospheric productions. Too Scared to Breath features the voice of Seefeel’s Sarah Peacock and sounds not unlike prime Autechre and Aphex. Militia (Dynamic Warfare) on the other hand mirrors the post-metal Dub of Techno Animal and Scorn. All of the recordings were lost until very recently when Touch recording artist Mark Van Hoen found the tracks on old CD

we've had to postpone gig in paris which was set for july 4th. Really sorry to all who have bought tickets...the world cup has got in the way and the show will now take place on the 6th sept.
anyone with tickets will be able to exchange or get the cash back.....sorry again but i'm afraid we could not persuade the promoter to go ahead..hope you can make the new date.

hello peeps,

our rockin new single is out today. Thanks for all the feedback.. we've been really overwhelmed with all the positive comments people have left .

If anybody is so in love the song they fancy emailing their favourite radio shows and encouraging them to play it we would also think that was a great idea. Then even more people will get to hear it.

Here's a few to start you off...
