   About AGK
"Quietly epic. Songs drift slowly into the consciousness, all crisp beats, distinctive vocals and ethereal production."
Stranger Magazine

"This music is all drawn out slow and beautiful. Exceedingly beautiful"
Music for Robots.

Debut album, The Liking of Things, released on Big Chill Recordings is available through Amazon, iTunes and in DRM-free mp3 format from Playlouder and elsewhere.

"Combining immaculately programmed electronica with delicate vocal stylings Seek them out."
Freddie B.

"shimmers in the spirit of Depeche Mode ... Moving mood music for the melancholic."
IDJ

..

"..it's in the small hours, when the back of your hand is interesting, and you need lyrics to prop you up, that this album comes into it's own."
Blowback

The Shortest Romance is "THE chillout tune of the Summer"
Mixmaster Morris.

"somewhere in the ether between Schneider TM and Future Sound of London, dark electronic soundscapes..."
The Rough Trade Shop.

Dear AGK:

On this day in 1694, the Bank Of England was granted charter by Act of Parliament.

Bearing this in mind, it would make an appropriate venue for your drifting glam-voudou and the next venture into site-specific tranmission magick.

go and give your ears some comfort, you never know, aural pleasure might be the result.
Thanks for being such an awesome part of our myspace family.
