Anja and Jo says thanks for the Istanbul gig.
Above are two clips of them doing ‘Kemical Girl’ at the acoustic concert at the Bronx on Saturday March 12, both filmed by ortadunyasakin. Photo above the videos also by Erhan Çırak.
Anja and Jo will go to Istanbul to play an acoustic gig at Bronx Pi Sahne on March 12.
Info and tickets here.
We will get back with a full band version soon. Check in for more later.
On May 20, 2002 we did a live studio session for the BBC Radio 1 show The Blue Room. Until now the three songs have just been available on a cassette (the old MC). Got the tape down on a disc today, and here are the recordings.
We did ‘Blue Monday’, ‘Your Koolest Smile’ and ‘Sugar Planet’. The last one is a vocal version of an instrumental off the ‘For Sleepyheads Only’ album, and I think we only did it twice. First in the Maida Vale BBC studio, then the following night at the Notting Hill Art’s Club. For some reason.
Have added more than 40 Flunk related photos on Flickr. See them here.
There are some Lomo originals used on Flunk artwork, also photos from rehearsals, a lot of them should be new to you.

We have uploaded some tracks on Soundcloud – including several unreleased remixes, versions and live studio recordings.
Some of them are available for free downloads. Enjoy!
Meanwhile: We’re still out here. The sweetness you see above are the two main reasons why our body of work have been on the lighter side this last year or so. Both Anja and Jo became parents in the space of days last winter. Anja got Erik (pictured right, and no – he’s not named after Erik – our drummer), Jo (well, his wife) got Johanna.
We’ll be back next year, wiser than ever.
Check in at our Soundcloud page for goodies. There will be more free fun to grab.
Flunk Q&A for Trippin’ The Rift, a US/Russian blog:

The good news is you will hear new Flunk music next year.
This year is baby boom year – both Jo and Anja had babies (one each) in February, which explains why there hasn’t been much buzz lately.
Meanwhile, here’s another remix. It’s by JR & Nesio – a take on ‘If We Kiss’. Enjoy!
An old friend of Flunk – Contepella (a.k.a. Scapegoat etc) – has done a great mix of Down (from This Is What You Get). Listen and/or download for free below.
More from Contepella here.
We have been doing some refurnishing on the blog. Hope you enjoy!
There are also some new uploads on the mp3 page – unreleased outtakes and demos (and some remixes) from Personal Stereo and This Is What You Get. Download for free!
The official video for ‘Cigarette Burns’ is finished, and out in the cloud.
Thanks to Erik Hannemann who did both photography and the editing. The pictures were shot in our rehearsal studio and during our gig at Parkteatret, Oslo in May.
