Hi! :)

I'll be embarking on a solo electronic tour of the North Island this month. Armed with a synth, mpc, vocoder and a guitar plugged into my trusty looper, I'll be performing songs off of A Maze and Amazement and the forthcoming record. Touring with me is my buddy, Thomas, who will be performing as i.Ryoko.



Thursday 21st - Wanganui @ Eye of Night [AA]
Friday 22nd - Wellington @ Brownote (above Bluenote) [AA]
Saturday 23rd - Palmerston North @ Public Library [AA]
Thursday 28th - Wellington @ Happy
Friday 29th - Hamilton @ La Commune [AA]
Saturday 30th - Auckland @ Winecellar

All shows start around 9 / 9.30 and are 6,- on the door, except the show at the library, which is in the afternoon and free.

Hope some of you can make it to a show! :)

LULLATONE'S ZZZ IN OZ AND NZ TOUR THIS MARCH
sunken





Feb 3 2008 4:20 AM

Yay.
Finally this ones out!


SUNKEN.- 'Eye Electric Organ, Brain Electric Nerve'.
Deep in the swirling depths of the ocean a terrible yet wondrous beast stirs slow but sure amidst great forests of sea algae. Taking on the form of a pair of conjoined drown-ed sailors it sets forth upon the currents determined to loose its apocalyptic vision upon the earth via droning sea shanty and great humming hymn.
Sunken is the duo of sunken sailors Stefan Neville (Pumice) and Antony Milton (Nether Dawn/A.M etc). Using a range of organs, sonar gear, live tapeloops, vocals and an unhealthy amount of submarine reverb they create a glorious droning pop noise. 'Eye Electric Organ, Brain Electric Nerve' follows on from their acclaimed self titled debut (also on PseudoArcana) and various compilation appearances.
You can hear a sample from the album here.
CD. NZ$20 (post incl)
Visit www.pseudoarcana.com for details.
