Ali Wells, one of the more formidable artists on the touring calendar eyes a heavy date with both Melbourne and Sydney commencing on the former on August 17 for ‘When The Smoke Clears’ crew at Brown Alley, followed by the latter on the Saturday. Post founding the flagship enterprise Perc Trax, he’s moved on from one significant success to another whilst still managing appearances on the likes of Stroboscopic Artefacts, Electric Deluxe and Kompakt and 2012 hasn’t vented an air of apprehension. All signals are lighting up a menacingly heavy weekend, surely.
