Flanafi by flanafi

Flanafi is the debut solo project of Simon Martinez, Philadelphia experimental guitar wizard and the melodic half of Boiled Records alumni Pulgas. These songs contain the same burbling junkyard genius of that band, filtered through a very different lens. One could use Flanafi as a required text in the economics of bombast with no reservations. It's Sly Stone drowning in a liquor ocean – it's Dntel style IDM made with washboards and spoons instead of computers – it's Colin Blunstone run through a chipmunk filter in a hell based on planet IKEA. This shit is weird and it's beautiful and it's one of a kind. In an era where regurgitation and veneer hold sway, this young freak is following his oddly sober muse. He's got the muse cornered and it's not clear if he's gonna set it on fire or serenade it. He could do either, really, as Simon's talent is absolutely unparalleled in this new epoch. Rumour has it that each of his fingers is individually sentient. He knows exactly what he's doing. Soak it up.
