Check Engine

Posted: April 21st, 2004, by Simon Minter

You have to love it when mail comes at all hours. It’s 10.30pm and a parcel just arrived, delivered by the neighbour, with a note on it saying “please deliver to number three – thanks, postie”. It actually said “postie” ! Marvellous.

What’s more, the parcel contained the CHECK ENGINE album in its limited edition hand-produced form; hand-sprayed sleeve with hand-written tracklisting and hand-glued googly eyes on the front, and hand-inserted random items inside. God Bless Late Post !

Simon Minter

Simon joined diskant after falling on his head from a great height. A diskant legend in his own lifetime Simon has risen up the ranks through a mixture of foolhardiness and wit. When not breaking musical barriers with top pop combo Sunnyvale Noise Sub-element or releasing records in preposterously exciting packaging he relaxes by looking like Steve Albini.
