It's been said that the day unravels what the night has woven so that each morning, we hold in our hands a few fringes of the tapestry of a lived life.

The act of remembering is more like forgetting. For it is only when a memory is recalled that the fragile and forgotten quality of memories are revealed. We go about life weaving fragments together, fragments of ourselves we find staring back at us as we remember conversations, smells and quality of light.

Alas, the sun rises today no different than in the summer of 1989. Lamenting the passage of time as experienced solely through recorded media begs the question - is there such a thing as second hand nostalgia?

We present to you, the Phenomena EP - by Florist - An elegy to the spirit of the Sunrise Midsummer Party held at White Waltham Airfield - aka Ecstasy Airport - in June of 1989. Channelling the energy of Raul Orellana and the hordes of enraptured dancers, it goes out to the hundreds of Youtube commenters who can still recall with vivid clarity their personal experiences (in spite of altered states).
