Peter Murphy and Boy George
Let The Flowers Grow (Juno Reactor Remix) Metropolis Records A vibrant and fresh remix version of the 2024 collaboration between Peter Murphy and Boy George, this Juno Reactor Remix of Let The Flowers Grow produces a new self-seeding bloom. Produced by Youth, from credits with Pink Floyd, Paul McCartney, The Orb, and Killing Joke, the pairing of legendary vocalists show their classical side. Orchestral and adventurous, the song began life as a social narrative about George’s own gay realisation journey. It quickly evolved into much more than about being gay, as it became clear that all kinds of personal and social differences create tensions in our community and the relationships we have with ourselves. Creed, race, moral compass, colour, music taste, and more, they all create variations in the way we see the world and our place within it. Remixed by Brighton’s Juno Reactor, a fusion of electronic and global styles brings inventiveness to the front. Like the flowers in a lovely meadow, aromatic and lush wildlife, our society is a mix of hardy and annual specimens of persona. Rather than digging it all up and putting uniform crops in the ground, let’s just Let The Flowers Grow. It begins with a delicate tone; a distant power forms gracefully in the space between the music. Lyrics enter; a sudden and emotional tenor paints the drama and sensation across the bars in poetic verses. Percussion and synthesiser work together to unleash sensual drives of passionate harmony, finding nooks in the soul where the warmth can begin. With a twist of a dial and a push of the mixer, bass and tone then collide with the flow. Dancing rhythms and grabby techno bass beats form a heavy and energetic backbone. The words re-enter, like a rocket ship bringing back secrets from the stars, the duet of vocals aligns with the fiery pulse of the rhythm section. The flower meadow is in full colour, and the aroma is guiding our imaginations towards the microcosmos of felt reality.

Post-Punk Archetype Peter Murphy Presents The Artroom Wonder With Tool’s Justin Chancellor - Listen24/3/2025 
Peter Murphy
The Artroom Wonder Metropolis Records Make a date for the 9th of May, that’s the day when the new Peter Murphy album Silver Shade is released. But first, we can enjoy the next single from the record. Since featuring Boy George in a duet with his previous Let The Flowers Grow, this new album takes the post-punk permanent to the next level. Fans have already been given Swoon, the first track since that memorable experience, and now The Artroom Wonder is here to continue the story. Written about Peter’s experience with former Bauhaus bandmate Daniel Ash, as senior school students they once sneaked into the 6th form common room which served as the art classroom and heard the most incredible music. Continuing the theme of guest musicians, for The Artroom Wonder it’s the turn of Tool bassist Justin Chancellor. This time it’s Murphy and company who get to be the cool kids playing the incredible music. Let’s sneak in. A retro synth enters with a catchy bass tone, it creates an upbeat rhythm with a sludgy sensation. Then a drumbeat joins the current and adds a bit of voltage. A marching beat that’s a bit faster than a casual walk takes us on and into an adventurism of sound. Peter Murphy begins; his voice captures everything we love about the genre. As the verse viscously moves onward the music simmers and then boils with harmony and melodic additions. The vocal ats like a bass tone in the flow as the synthesiser catches the feel and flings the families of tone into the sky. With a creativity and picturesque lyrical inventiveness, we’re drawn into this mysterious and fascinating world of the artroom. Kindled from dreams, based on experience, matured in the cellar of the mind, and expressed through song, a potent number indeed.
