Sadly Jonteknik was unable to support us at Neon Welt due to uncertainty caused by the Channel tunnel fire. However Hertzinfarkt and AWOL both gave great performances, including a wonderful joint version of The Devil's Dancers! Diana of Hertzinfarkt joined Andy on stage for a fantastic rendition of Subterranean Desire. Thanks again to Plastikmann, Andreas Sippel and Martin for all their hard work and expertise in setting up the sound system and lighting.

On Thursday 25 September 2008 Andy and Martin will be playing live in the UK for the first time in 24 years - at Synthetic, a great new electronic club at the Cavendish Arms, Hartington Road, Stockwell, London SW8 (a friendly, spacious pub with easy parking). Also playing will be the Brighton-based Digitalis, Looptron and Cosmic Intent from Switzerland. The evening starts at 8pm - tickets are £6 on the door or £5 with flyer.

Andy and Martin will be giving away twenty copies of a limited cd-r single containing their two most recent recordings, Washington and One Minute To Midnight. Copies of the Atomic Age and Wissenschaftler cd-r's will be available for sale.

Andy and Martin will be playing live at Neon Welt, Zwischenfall, Bochum, on Saturday 13 September 2008, supported by Hertzinfarkt (new 7" single Stell Lauter out soon on Kernkrach Records) and Jonteknik (a synthesist from Brighton, England, and collaborator with Claudia Brucken and Paul Humphreys on their Onetwo album and EP). DJ Plastikmann will be providing a wide-ranging playlist of rare eighties electronic minimalism, accompanied by the guest DJ, Frank Hentshcke of Absent Without Leave.

Thanks to DJ Aime le Chevalier (seen left with Andy) and the management of OJC Kompas, Sint Niklaas, for their hospitality and generosity during our visit to Belgium. Thanks also to the audience and our many friends and fans (including Mike Klein, Plastikmann, Andreas Sippel, Martin Kleefeld, DJ Echo Frau, Mark and Paul of Sudeten Creche) for making the journey to Sint Niklaas. We enjoyed meeting the other acts, Twilight Ritual and Martial Canterel, and, as always, were impressed by the huge level of support for early 80s electronic music.

Three video tracks are currently available on YouTube: Devil's Dancers, Cold War and Men in White Coats. Any photos from the show would be welcome - please send them as attachments to Martin Lloyd at martinlh@aol.com.

Our thanks to Raymond Kriha from the goth listings site Gothsick.de who has kindly provided a link to his photos of DJ Mike Klein's birthday party at Weird Science, Loch Ness, Wiesloch.
