01. NEON

Expired

PAUL HARGREAVES, BRENDON GRANT & TIM WELLS

The electronica band NEON grew out of this trio’s commitment to the sounds of vintage analogue synthesizers and drum machines. Once redundant, these machines are now at the cutting edge of music. Original Korg MS 20s, Pro Ones, TR 808s, Junos and Jupiters are all part of their live performance.

The band is creatively inspired by the ‘danger' of live electronic performance, with the hands-on aspect of dials, knobs and switches. Watch them being worked - something you can't do with a laptop. NEON’s visuals are provided by Klaasz Breukel. NEON’s visuals are provided by Klaasz Breukel.
