Liquid Pegasus

about

Somewhere between space boogie and the echoing hot pavement of a city at night, sounds that emerged in the 80's where disco slid back into a slinky funk and got more psychadelic and sc-fi. That's Liquid Pegasus, a name born from the imagined mythical creatures his grandfather told him about as a child, shooting across the dome of the sky like the milky way. Real name Josh Lundquist was born in the midwest in 1980 to a family of circus performers. 'When I was born we were moving, halfway between cities. I think the sound of the road is the first rhythm I became aquainted with...' This might explain the deep rambling quality of his songs, which seem to emerge and disappear like silhouettes passing by in the night. His oldest brother picked up breakdancing somewhere on the road between Detroit and Chicago and used it in his routines, and the memory of seeing him doing a headspin to Herbie Hancock's 'Rockit' somehow burned into his brain and mingled with the open roaded loneliness of the midwest landscape, travelling from city to city in the summers, often staying up at night and wondering where the odd electric sounds that he found on his brother's Walkman had come from. '(The songs) sounded like they were coming from somewhere between space and the city at night... Like futuristic dirty space boogie...'
