Fluke

[holden]

Yes, big Fluke fan.

I agree with Stimpee, "Techno Rose of Blighty" is definitely dated, and i think it's much more synth-poppy than the rest of their catalog.

"Risotto" was the album that got me hooked, since "Atom Bomb" and "Absurd" were on countless commercials and compilations ~1997-98. Still enjoy the full LP.

Enjoy "Six Wheels.." for the singles, less so the album cuts. "Oto" is very dark, trip-hop, but has some interesting versions of tracks like "Setback" and "squirt" that appear on "Risotto".

"Puppy" was in near-constant rotation when it came out, and yeah, love the continuous mix of tracks 2 through 5.

As for side projects, 2Bit Pie and Syntax both rocked my socks. Syntax is working on a new record.
