Hi folks!
Lots happening!!!
Having spent all of 2012 closing the live shows with our rework of David Bowie‘s ‘Lady Grinning Soul from the seminal album ‘Aladdin Sane‘ we are finally releasing it ahead of our new album. We’ve had some thoroughly excellent feedback from live audiences, so we are celebrating this as well as Bowie’s return!! Being long standing fans of his work and Raf a complete Bowie nut means we are buzzing!
It will be released as a package containing the studio version of ‘Lady Grinning Soul‘, ‘The Fog‘ and a wicked Remix of the latter courtesy of the brilliant three piece post-dubstep/ electronic band Nedry. More details on this soon.
In the meantime, here is a video of a live version of ‘Lady Grinning Soul’ from the Lewisham Arthouse show – massive thanks to Luigi Altilia for filming.
The launch is to be taking place at CAFE OTO on April 1st promoted by the wonderful Klarita from Kaparte Promotions – great venue and great bill!
We will be opening for Larsen (15 years of avant/ experimental activity) on their European Tour feat. legendary dub-diva Little Annie (a.k.a. Annie Anxiety Bandez), who has recently released her autobiography.

Hello friends,
we’re so delighted you’ve been listening to our new tracks on Soundcloud.
Been receiving some great comments, some really creative ones, all still very welcome, the more the merrier!
The exciting news is that we are finally taking it live!
We’re very honoured to be playing the first Ship Of Fools of 2012 (Kaparte), the show is on a boat, what a better place to make some sounds! Richard (sailing-head) is extra excited about this.
Very happy to say that Raf and O will be joined by Crewdson from Slowfoot Records, with a set of brilliant sounds and idiosyncratic electronic set up “post-dubstep/micro-house tracks from Matthew Herbert’s tech assistant and fine south-east London producer” [Time Out] and Will Connor (Vultures Quartet) a London-based percussionist devoted to experimenting and composing using unconventional instruments and techniques will be opening the night.
Raf and O will perform a whole set of completely new songs as a sneak preview to our second album with a new live set up. Do come and join us at this really cool night on the River Thames P.S. Tickets cheaper in advance
