Take the scent of a Sunday morning air, add a touch of an after-rain breeze, multiply it by the silent beauty of a couple of seashore sunset but removed the over-powering awe that surrounds it, and add a pinch of urban avant-garde grandeur, youd be somewhere close to flica.

windvane and window captures flica's impeccable ability to balance simple playful musical creativity with subtle, honest emotional depths, combining youthful pop sensibilities with matured artistry. 
 
Thin layers of ethereal sounds create the ambience, helmed by easy-tripping electro acoustic tunes and grounded by sleek IDM rhythms; each number intricately weaves a subtle beauty that works its way to a refrained but magically spell-binding crescendo softly fluctuating to the sweetest and truest human touches. 
 
flica's debut album is not one of extremities, but a collection of skillfully controlled heart-felt expressions, creating a sense of serenity that bridges dreams with reality.

In this gorgeous album, besides showcasing the stunning vocals by Malaysian singer-songwriter <a href="http://www.myspace.com/ikasound" target="_blank">Ika</a>, it also features collaborative efforts with famed Tokyo indie label mastermind <a href="http://www.akirakosemura.com/" target="_blank">Akira Kosemura</a> and talented electro-acoustic musician <a href="http://www.myspace.com/harukanakamura" target="_blank">Haruka Nakamura</a>. As a final magical touch, windvane and window is beautifully mastered by our dear friend, ricks ang, who is also one half of the splendid Singapore electronic ambient duo, <a href="http://www.aspidistrafly.com/" target="_blank">aspidistrafly</a>.

flica is seasoned Malaysian musician Euseng Seto's personal music project. Based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, he has embarked on his own musical exploration after years of experimentation with different musical forms.

正當大家都在抓前衛、捉另類的當兒，其實你會不會錯過了一些最基本，卻又最貼近人心的感動呢？就像放假忙著往外地跑，有時也不及一杯咖啡與一抺夕陽相伴的韻味。大概這就是flica能夠給你的感覺。
 
來自馬來西亞的flica是音樂製作人Euseng Seto的個人音樂單位，首張專輯「風向器與窗」在同樣來自馬來西亞的mü-nest廠牌出版，帶來的是回歸基本步的電氣小品。正當laptop electronica樂圈中人愈向抽象深邃的境界探索時，mü-nest嘗試在科技電音和優美曲風的結合之中緩慢前行，flica可算是集合此兩特點的最佳結晶品。
 
從封面那一塊棕櫚樹葉，你大概可以感受到flica帶給你的一趟音樂旅程，是如何的悠然舒泰。沒有高深的電子概念，相反那些電子聲效緩緩讓路給有機性的樂器演奏，彈琴和弦樂的混融，配合來自馬來西亞的美聲ika柔和的人聲演繹，每一首都是對平常生活的禮讚。Flica不是立心探索心底私密，也不是動輒高舉偉大理論，聽完專輯，你感受到的是他對身邊事物的細微觀察，從而感恩，因為一事一物都有其富足之處，成就了我們的世界。來自日本的akira kosemura及haruka nakamura分別替專輯炮製了兩首純美的混音版本，沒有抺去flica的閒逸氣息，卻大大加強了溫暖幸福的甜密感動。

我們需要積極面對生活，大膽探索前路，思索奧妙人生，然而也不要忘記在平常生活中流近的片段和剪影，就像flica的音樂，提醒我們幸福就在燈火欄柵處，好好的欣賞和享受所有的尋常味道。
