Hologram Expose
Hologram Expose was actually me, Steve Francis and Charlie Garioch.
The band was conceived because Kev (my brother) being in Cracked Mirror had sent a tape to Melody Maker to be reviewed and a review got printed.
Any one could do that I thought, but I did not have a band or any songs !!!
So I borrowed by dad's Casio keyboard and got to work.
Having come up with some ditties Steve provided the lyrics and his singing capability and Chas (who was always looking to do some recording) played Sax and added some backing Vocals.
So, the demo was made on my trusty (part owned) Portastudio.
Three tracks were laid down. The idea being to record something that would be reviewed.
The style of choice was Gary Numanesque synth pop. Oh Yes.
