Ambitiously attacking the art of the big tune in the vein of Blur, Les Savy Fav, The Vines and Klaxons, Matt, Ollie and Dan mix twinkling psychedelia, visual oddity, afro-cuban beats and some massive pop hooks. Flash Fiktion write stories that fit in a song and songs that are, well…fit!
Their debut Leni/Science of Sleep was heralded by everyone from Heat magazine to Zane Lowe, alongside the more usual suspects, and with forthcoming single, Capsules of Sun featuring (re)mixes by DiD, Is Tropical, Lexxx and Old Arc, they're mixing in some interesting circles too.
Flash Fiktion's recent live shows at Koko's Club NME have been an aural feast, (hallucinogenically-spiked ELO anyone?) so don't miss this….
