Fresh back from a trip to Indonesia you can catch Segue’s most enlightened cohort dropping a DJ set at Colours at Empire this Friday. Leo is dropping a tech set from 2am amid a stellar local line-up, making this one to mark on the calendar for those based in or who can make it to Brisbane. For everyone out of state and our colleagues and cohorts overseas, we can always see if we can slip a recording device in-line. Given how rarely Segue has uploaded its own live sets (and usually only on the mailing list) we can’t make any promises! Full event details on Inthemix.
Exciting news as Segue T-Shirts are now available in a range of male and female sizes. Designed by the incredible local artist Monaux, these shirts were originally screen printed at Red Octopus to celebrate Segue’s exciting performance at the Boiler Room at the Gold Coast Big Day Out festival. The remainder are now available for purchase in the Store or else simply Contact us and we will work something out. Show your support for Segue and synthesising robots today!
Update 9th Oct 2008: The store stock has been depleted and we are now down to select quantities of sizes. These will be put aside until after the next track release in a few weeks and we will make sure they are avialable once again. A special thanks to everyone who has sent in pics of them sporting our robot mascot and to other acts such as Silent Shadow who have been spotted in photos and footage from Parklife 2008 rocking out onstage with a Segue shirt on! Nice!
The dual single releases on Smashbang Records have encountered some unavoidable delays and are awaiting a final launch date to be reconfirmed. Delays as such can often occur and are difficult to plan for so both Dave and Leo have taken the time to take a break from performing live to focus on studio output and recharging the batteries. Over the last few weeks Dave has been working with Segue collaborator Kris Ko on DJ re-edits of Segue tracks and some remix work coming into the studio. Some might know Kris from his dramatic drumming entrance during Segue’s Boiler Room set at Big Day Out in 2008 as captured by fans in the crowd and posted on sites such as YouTube. Others might know his body of work ranging from drumming in live DNB act Silent Shadow, producing the Beatport favourite progressive house bomb “Tribal Gathering” as part of seminal Brisbane electronic act D-KO and a very long list of electronic and Indy scene happenings. DJ edits will be doing the rounds shortly. Those particularly curious can get in touch or keep an eye on the mailing list. For the time being, stay tuned for the confirmed release dates.
