Nagamatzu
Whilst still at school, and deeply inspired by Cabaret Voltaire at the ‘Fetish Night Out’ at the Lyceum in February 1981, we began dabbling with more electronic-based/processed sounds. This became Nagamatzu, which was formed by Stephen Jarvis and me. Andrew Fleck joined later…
The photo’s below are taken from an old exercise book (such as you might use for school work), which became the ‘Nagamatzu Biography’. I’ll add more pic’s and links as time progresses. It’s taken me three decades to get this far, but I’ll try to get it sorted 🙂

That was a bloody awful gig. We had to compete with the pub customers who wanted to watch boxing on the TV.
