One Week to Go..Birds Of Paradise
Pre-save, Pre-order, buy tickets for the Jazz Cafe release party - 23rd Oct
The new Auntie Flo album - Birds Of Paradise - and next release on A State Of Flo records will be released in one week. I’ve got a handful of vinyl pre-order copies left on Bandcamp if you want to order it direct. There will be copies in all good record stores and also available via all streaming platforms from Thurs 23rd.
The album is inspired by a trip to Goa, fusing field recordings and a bunch of analogue drum machines and synths to create a tropical paradise, designed for the dancefloor. No vocalists, sessions or collaborations - just joyous free-flowing expression.
PRESAVE ON SPOTIFY if you want to support the album on streaming platforms.
A few early bits of journalist feedback:
“A genuinely terrific album from Brian - brilliant stuff as ever. Love the fluidity and hardware-driven immediacy” Matt Anniss
“The Album is a marvel, from start to finish. Percussion Heaven. Auntie Flo has created something very special. Refining a new tropical Balearic Sound, lush hypnotic and awesome” Kate Hutchison
“this is soooo Good... I love what Auntie Flo does but this fusion of old percussion and future sounds is sublime... Mount Koya is CRAZILY good and the whole album is amazing...” Ross Allen
More to come…
