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
"他們全心全意打造出一張滿載追憶與情感，卻跳脫文字，純粹以深思熟慮的聲音設計營造出獨特氛圍的專輯,「i hold a wish for you」每個細節都盡見aspidistrafly對他們心血結晶有多麼的重視！" -- Node Culture (Taiwan)
"仿佛一串追憶中的片刻清醒，一次長途遷徙中的短暫停留，安逸、和煦，點綴著自身的優雅和aspidistrafly式的消匿，就像天高氣爽的時日，從空氣中踱出一位詩人，他無聲無息地握住另一位詩人微顫的雙手──aspidistrafly也曾這般仁慈──然後，指縫間滲出一道明銳的光" - - 中國著名音樂雜誌《通俗歌曲．搖滾》
aspidistrafly是由來自新加坡的April Lee與Ricks Ang所組成的多媒體藝術團體，本身學習建築的April擔任藝術指導、攝影、主唱與電音創作；而Ricks則負責設計、作曲與監製，兩人于2005年創立設計工作室＋音樂廠牌Kitchen。他們在2004齣版首張EP《The Ghost of Things》大獲好評，被譽為當年度新加坡最佳獨立發行。2008年出版首張專輯《i hold a wish for you》，並有機會在日本當紅作曲家Haruka Nakamura專輯《grace》中擔任客席音樂人。
aspidistrafly曾為各式多媒體藝術表演與裝置提供作品，當中包括他們應TheatreWorks邀請與日本重量級多媒體藝術團體Dump Type核心成員Takayuki Fujimoto，還有媒體藝術家Daito Manabe一起合作“Drift Net”。今年三月aspidistrafly將展開亞洲六個城市的巡演。
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：
“大馬獨立音樂人flica的處女專輯，以清新小電為主軸，加上靈巧的IDM韻律和甜美且不落套俗的流行樂架構，得以充滿畫面感的方式漂亮地呈現出獨立電子音樂其溫暖及人性化的一面”-- Node Culture (Taiwan)
“閉上眼睛，感受自體內逸出的自然旋律，來自吉隆坡的Euseng Seto（flica），以鋼琴為中心，融合如呼吸心跳般自然有機的電子韻律，特別適合在夜晚聆聽，讓想像力自由飛翔” -- 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是來自馬來西亞吉隆坡的電子原音創作人／平面設計師euseng seto的代號，自2005年起即開始其音樂創作活動，與朋友合組電音二人組合muxu，2007初開始以flica名義實踐探索個人較實驗的電子音樂風格，及後與當地獨立廠牌mu-nest合作出版首張個人專輯《windvane & window》，悠然舒泰的有機風格讓他打開在日本的知名度，引起日本電子音樂圈的注目，2008年12月更在日本著名環境電音廠牌schole出版專輯《nocturnal》，受歡迎程度更上一層樓。
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.
