Released on 24th August 2018 via the Dead Radio Station record label, we are pleased to confirm this new collaboration on the solo release by Big Paul Ferguson: Official (aka BPF) of post punk legends Killing Joke… with KJ embarking on a 40th anniversary tour in September, drummer âBig Paulâ has announced the release of his solo debut EP, titled Remote Viewing, a new collaboration with Mark Gemini Thwaite.  The EPâs seven tracks include guitar, bass, and keyboard contributions from MarkGT, best known for his work with The Mission, Peter Murphy, Tricky, Gary Numan, and his own band MGT; Ferguson had performed drums on the latest MGT album, Gemini Nyte. Also appearing will be Brainshadow, who mastered the album & performs electric violin on âX-Box.â
“Killing Joke drummer delivers a 9/10 widescreen classicâ.. BPF âassembled the finished tracks by fleshing out his pre-recorded loops of rhythms, guitar and keyboards, with the assistance of the multi-instrumentalist Mark Gemini Thwaite (MGT)â.. âthese songs are superbly produced, and itâs MGT who co-produced the album with Big Paul in Los Angelesâ Louderthanwar.com
âDrums rise to meet the fiery guitars of underground veteran Mark Gemini Thwaite, whose presence is felt throughout the EPâ… â fulfills everything the words Big Paul solo release promiseâ… âWith Thwaite adding dark menace behind the curtain, the drums unsurprisingly take center stageâ
âRemote Viewing will provide new treasures to listeners years after their introduction to it. An essential addition to the discography of one of underground musicâs most innovative mindsâ JoeGausten.com
