They played a few gigs, which often included some covers such as The Ruts’ “Babylon’s Burning”, Eat’s “Bleed Me White” and Kylie Minogue’s “What Do I Have To Do”; with the pair on stage with their sequencer of song backings. Music & Elsewhere included Twister on 1992’s ‘The Radio Cracker Tape’ and in 1993 released a full album [M&E 224]. This was recorded at C.A.N Recording Studio, Farnham and this carried a mixture of eight originals and covers, the four tracks from the groups first demo and “These Days” by Three Times The Crow, Leru’s previous band. In ’95 the groups “Bloodrush” appeared on Farnborough Groove Strikes Back Vol.5.

Twister ended after all their gear was stolen from Neil’s car, while parked in Notting Hill; including the sequencer, which you couldn’t backup back then, from which there was no coming back.

Leru went on to become a member of Kilter.
