aspidistrafly：
“Refined and robust, these well organized aural assemblages give ample animation and seriousness to the light and prosaic elements of the everyday.” -– Cyclic Defrost (Australia)
"Full of dreamy post shoegaze soundscapes, ethereal female vocals & lullaby folk textures. It kind of reminds me of the pastures between Sigur Ros & Cocteau Twins, the voice fluttering & hovering around tantalisingly between absorbing passages of crisp acoustics, subtle found sound samples, gentle ambient/drift textures and blissed laptop glitch. It's definitely of a high pedigree, lovingly produced and a delight to look at as well hear." - Norman Records (U.K.)
“A gentle album thats shines like a jewel, like sunlight through the leaves of trees." -- Bounce Magazine (Tower Records Japan)
"Everything is worked out into the smallest details. With field recordings and microsounds they sculpture songs to accompany dreamy vocals. With an eye for details like Taylor Deupree and in the vein of Japanese musician Piana. 8/10" -- EARlabs
”ts not easy to pin down aspidistrafly’s music into a specific genre, which is a good thing. Can you imagine Richard Chartier playing dreamy pop music? With some female vocalist? I’d say aspidistrafly is microsound and pop. Very refined.”-- Vital Weekly
"他们全心全意打造出一张满载追忆与情感，却跳脱文字，纯粹以深思熟虑的声音设计营造出独特氛围的专辑,「i hold a wish for you」每个细节都尽见aspidistrafly对他们心血结晶有多么的重视！" -- Node Culture (Taiwan)
"仿佛一串追忆中的片刻清醒，一次长途迁徙中的短暂停留，安逸、和煦，点缀着自身的优雅和aspidistrafly式的消匿，就像天高气爽的时日，从空气中踱出一位诗人，他无声无息地握住另一位诗人微颤的双手――aspidistrafly也曾这般仁慈――然后，指缝间渗出一道明锐的光" - - 中国著名音乐杂志《通俗歌曲．摇滚》
aspidistrafly是由来自新加坡的April Lee与Ricks Ang所组成的多媒体艺术团体，本身学习建筑的April担任艺术指导、摄影、主唱与电音创作；而Ricks则负责设计、作曲与监制，两人于2005年创立设计工作室＋音乐厂牌Kitchen。他们在2004出版首张EP《The Ghost of Things》大获好评，被誉为当年度新加坡最佳独立发行。2008年出版首张专辑《i hold a wish for you》，并有机会在日本当红作曲家Haruka Nakamura专辑《grace》中担任客席音乐人。
aspidistrafly曾为各式多媒体艺术表演与装置提供作品，当中包括他们应TheatreWorks邀请与日本重量级多媒体艺术团体Dump Type核心成员Takayuki Fujimoto，还有媒体艺术家Daito Manabe一起合作“Drift Net”。今年三月aspidistrafly将展开亚洲六个城市的巡演。
From Singapore, aspidistrafly is the music & visual project formed by April Lee (b.1984) and Ricks Ang (b.1980). April is an art director, photographer, vocalist and electronic artist. She has a background of study in architecture. Ricks is a designer, composer and producer. He also runs Kitchen. Label, a design studio + record label established by the both of them in 2005.
Their release “The Ghost of Things EP” was widely regarded as one of the best local independent releases of 2004. In 2008, aspidistrafly gained wide attention with the release of their first full-length album "i hold a wish for you" (Kitchen.) and collaboration with Haruka Nakamura on his album "grace" (schole records).
aspidistrafly has also contributed materials for media art performances and installations, most notably collaborating with Takayuki Fujimoto (Dumbtype) and Daito Manabe on “Drift Net”, curated by Singapore-based international performance company TheatreWorks. aspidistrafly has played live in Japan and other Asia Pacific cities. In March 2009, aspidistrafly is set to embark on a 6 city tour around Asia.

flica：
“大马独立音乐人flica的处女专辑，以清新小电为主轴，加上灵巧的IDM韵律和甜美且不落套俗的流行乐架构，得以充满画面感的方式漂亮地呈现出独立电子音乐其温暖及人性化的一面”-- Node Culture (Taiwan)
“闭上眼睛，感受自体内逸出的自然旋律，来自吉隆坡的Euseng Seto（flica），以钢琴为中心，融合如呼吸心跳般自然有机的电子韵律，特别适合在夜晚聆听，让想象力自由飞翔” -- intoxicate vol.77(Japan)
“Though piano is the central instrument in the new album's ten pieces, the instrument is joined by acoustic guitar, strings, programmed beats, and ambient atmospheres in Euseng Seto's electro-acoustic settings. Throughout, the music is warm, the style consonant, and the vibe pastoral; the Malaysian artist's music, in other words, is anything but nightmare-inducing… It goes without saying that Flica's Nocturnal will also appeal to devotees of Sawako, Daisuke Miyatani, Akira Kosemura and Rist” --- textura (Canada)
“I have no doubt that some will view this similarity of feel and sound across all of the tracks as a hallmark of dreaded predictability, but considering the way in which Flica's work stands out from many others in the IDM crowd in terms of its ability to utilize complexity in an extraordinarily accessible and comprehensible manner, I feel it unfair and, indeed, mistaken to think of it as anything other than consistency.” --- Fred Bevan (The Silent Ballet, USA)
flica是来自马来西亚吉隆坡的电子原音创作人／平面设计师euseng seto的代号，自2005年起即开始其音乐创作活动，与朋友合组电音二人组合muxu，2007初开始以flica名义实践探索个人较实验的电子音乐风格，及后与当地独立厂牌mu-nest合作出版首张个人专辑《windvane & window》，悠然舒泰的有机风格让他打开在日本的知名度，引起日本电子音乐圈的注目，2008年12月更在日本著名环境电音厂牌schole出版专辑《nocturnal》，受欢迎程度更上一层楼。
flica is euseng seto , an electro-acoustic artist and graphic designer residing in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Born in 1982, he began his music activities in 2005 with his first electronic duo project muxu, whose last offering is released by Monotonik Label (United States).Having realized the need to explore further and experiment with his own music style, euseng seto started flica in early 2007, solely crafting and producing his first album, 'windvane & window' which has been one of the top selling albums in the Japanese electronica scene since its release.
